The aim of this study was to compare the short-term and mid-term outcome of lateral UKRs using a single prosthesis, the AMC Uniglide knee implant. Between 2003 and 2010, seventy lateral unicompartmental knee replacements (mean patient age 63.6±12.7 years) were performed at our unit for isolated lateral compartmental disease. Range of knee motion and functional outcome measures including the American Knee Society (AKSS), Oxford (OKS) and WOMAC scores were recorded from 19 knees at five years' post-operatively and compared to 35 knees at two-years and 53 knees at one-year post-op.Purpose
