Treatment Options for Osteoarthritis in the Knee Osteoarthritis of the Knee. Osteoarthritis is the most common cause of musculoskeletal pain and disability in the knee joint. In the knee joint, the end of the femur (thigh bone) and tibia (shin bone) are covered in smooth articulate cartilage. Between the two bones sits a second type of cartilage, called menisci, which act as cartilage shock absorber pads. Joint fluid also adds lubrication to the knee joint.

Total and Partial Knee Replacement A unicompartmental knee replacement is sometimes used instead of a total knee replacement when only one side of the knee has been damaged by osteoarthritis. Unicompartmental knee replacements involve smaller incisions, less bleeding, quicker recovery, and less bone loss than a total knee replacement.n artificial knee is not a normal knee, nor is it as good as a normal knee. The operation will provide pain relief for at least ten years. If replacement provides you with pain relief and if you do not have other health problems, you should be able to carry out many normal activities of daily living.

Anatomy Osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis in the knee. It is a degenerative,wear-and-tear type of arthritis that occurs most often in people 50 years of age and older, but may occur in younger people, too. In osteoarthritis, the cartilage in the knee joint gradually wears away. As the cartilage wears away, it becomes frayed and rough, and the protective space between the bones decreases. This can result in bone rubbing on bone, and produce painful bone spurs.
