Results: There were 9 failures during the follow up. The mean Knee Society objective and functional scores were respectively 49 and 48 points preoperatively and 95 and 92 points postoperatively. The survival rate was 92% at 5 years and 84% at 10 years. The mean age was younger in the failure group than the non-failure group (p < 0.01). However, none of the factors assessed was independently associated with failure based on the results from the Cox proportional hazard model. Conclusion: Gender, pre-operative diagnosis, preoperative objective and functional scores and patellar osteophytes were not independent predictors of failure of unicompartmental knee implants, although high body mass index trended toward significance. The findings suggest that the standard criteria for UKA may be expanded without compromising the outcomes, although caution may be warranted in patients with very high body mass index pending additional data to confirm our results.Level of Evidence: IV]]> Improving accuracy of total knee component cementation: description of a simple technique http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/38 Augmentation of tibial plateau fractures with trabecular metaltm: a biomechanical study. http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/37 Correlation and comparison of Risser sign versus bone age determination (TW3) between children with and without scoliosis in Korean population. http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/36 Advantages of the Ilizarov external fixation in the management of intra-articular fractures of the distal tibia http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/35 Botulinum toxin type A injections for the management of muscle tightness following total hip arthroplasty: a case series http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/34 Occupationally related bilateral calcific tendonitis of flexor carpi ulnaris: case report http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/33 Achilles tendon suture deteriorates tendon capillary blood flow with sustained tissue oxygen saturation - an animal study http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/32 Establishment of an animal model of a pasteurized bone graft, with a preliminary analysis of muscle coverage or FGF-2 administration to the graft http://www.josr-online.com/content/4/1/31
