Study aim
-
Comparison of radiological characteristics and postoperative outcome between those who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) on the leg with the most pain and those who underwent bi unicondylar knee arthroplasty (bi-Uka) on the leg with the most pain.
-
Design
-
randomly divided into two groups, TKA and bi-uncondylar knee arthroplasty, using the block randomization method.
In one group, the leg that has the most pain is subjected to TKA operation. The other group, the leg that has the most pain, is subjected to bi-UKA operation. Demographic, radiological, and laboratory characteristics will be compared between the two groups.
follow up After 1 month and 6 months from the last operation,

Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
-
Patients with medial and lateral OA suitable for treatment with standard unrestricted TKA, with intact cruciate ligaments (based on radiological evidence and clinical examination), and willing and able to provide informed consent were eligible for inclusion.
Rheumatoid or other inflammatory arthropathy, varus or valgus deformity greater than 15 degrees, or flexion contracture greater than 10 degrees, single-compartment OA suitable for isolated UKA, or radiological evidence of patellar OA. Patients with previous knee surgery, those with significant OA of the spine or other lower extremity joints
If a clear ligament injury is observed, which makes the condition unfavorable for bi-uka surgery, the patient is excluded from the study.

Intervention groups
