This study compares two types of osteotomy (bone-cutting and realignment surgeries) for people with knee arthritis that affects only the inner side of the knee and causes a bow-legged deformity. The goal is to find which surgery works better and has fewer complications.
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 study tests a new way to treat knee osteoarthritis using a patient's own fat tissue. The fat is processed with a special device and then injected into the knee to see if it helps reduce pain and improve joint function.
This trial studies a specific knee implant system in people with severe knee arthritis or post-injury knee problems. It looks at whether the implant helps reduce pain and improve knee movement, and whether the device is safe and reliable after surgery.
This trial tests a smart system to help save the knee joint in people with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis. It may be a good fit if you have pain on the inner side of your knee with some bowing, and your meniscus is slightly out of place.
This trial tests a new procedure to replace the damaged cartilage in your knee with healthy cartilage, which may help reduce pain and improve movement. It is for people with advanced knee arthritis who want to stay active.
