This trial compares two types of knee surgery for people with arthritis on the inner side of the knee and bow-legged alignment. The goal is to see which surgery better relieves pain and corrects the leg alignment.
This trial is for adults having their first knee replacement surgery. It tests a special part (tibial extension) of a common knee implant system. Researchers will follow participants over time to see how well it works.
This trial tests a new knee replacement system for people with severe arthritis. It aims to see if the implant provides safe and effective pain relief and improved mobility.
This trial tests a new precision system to treat knee arthritis by preserving your natural knee as much as possible. It is for people with mild-to-moderate inside knee pain and a specific type of cartilage (meniscus) problem, and aims to improve pain and function without replacing the whole knee.
This study tests a new type of partial knee replacement where only the damaged bone and cartilage are replaced, instead of the whole knee. It aims to help people with severe knee arthritis keep an active lifestyle and delay or avoid a total knee replacement.
This trial tests a new graft made from lab-grown cartilage to treat knee pain under the kneecap. It compares the graft to standard surgery for people with moderate-to-severe kneecap arthritis who haven't improved with other treatments.
