Partial knee replacement (microplasty) is a procedure where only the damaged compartment of the knee medial, lateral, or patellofemoral is resurfaced with an implant, while the healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments are preserved. This means less surgical trauma, a smaller incision, and a knee that feels far more natural than one treated with total replacement.
The knee has three compartments: medial (inner), lateral (outer), and patellofemoral (kneecap). Because partial knee replacement resurfaces only the affected one, choosing an experienced partial knee replacement surgeon in Ahmedabad for accurate, compartment-specific diagnosis matters enormously get the assessment right, and the outcome is smoother, quicker, and longer-lasting.
PMG Hospital is a trusted partial knee replacement hospital in Ahmedabad, offering a dedicated joint replacement doctor for precise evaluation before surgery, so you only have the surgery you actually need.
In the early stages of osteoarthritis, usually only one side of the knee is affected. Rather than waiting for it to spread, you may be able to avoid total knee replacement altogether by choosing partial knee replacement (knee microplasty) at the right time.
A major benefit is that the ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) and PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) are kept intact, which helps preserve natural movement, stability, and balance. Studies show nearly 50% of knee replacement patients have a healthy ACL and may be suitable for a partial procedure and with microplasty, 70–75% of your natural knee bone and ligaments are preserved.
You may be a good candidate for partial knee replacement if:
Total knee replacement may be the better option if you have arthritis across multiple compartments or a significant knee deformity. This is exactly why an accurate evaluation by an experienced partial knee replacement doctor in Ahmedabad matters and modern partial implants show strong long-term results, lasting 15–20 years or more in expert hands.
With extensive experience of 11,000+ knee replacement surgeries, Dr. Hiren Patel has developed his own proven technique called CROWN the latest procedure for partial knee replacement surgery.
CROWN stands for Conserve, Restore, Only affected/One part resurfaced, Without pain/physio, Natural feel. It is an advanced surgical approach that replaces only the affected part of the knee, giving you rapid recovery, more natural motion, and a joint that genuinely feels like your own. If you’re unsure whether you need total or partial knee replacement, a consultation is the quickest way to find out.
Recovery after partial knee replacement is noticeably quicker than after total replacement. Typically, you’ll stay in hospital for just 2 to 3 days, and around 95% of patients recover within about 2 weeks of surgery.
Most patients don’t need extensive physiotherapy, though if your doctor recommends a programme, following it closely leads to a better, speedier recovery. Under the care of an experienced partial knee replacement doctor in Ahmedabad, many patients walk with support within a few days and return to light daily activities within 4 to 6 weeks.
