Knees with anteromedial osteoarthritis show a substantial phenotypic variation prior and following medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

ConclusionThere is a substantial variation in CPAK phenotypes among knees with anteromedial OA, as well as following treatment with medial UKA. This variability challenges the assumption of uniform characteristics among knees with an identical wear pattern associated with anteromedial OA and emphasizes the complexity and variability of this specific form of OA.Level of evidenceIII, Retrospective cohort study.
