Brian William's Nightly News Program focused on a computer guided unicompartmental knee replacement procedure that more patients are becoming interested in. The clip shows how computer-aided navigation can help a surgeon provide a custom fit replacement. Unicompartmental joint replacement is a good option for younger patient like the dentist in this piece that have bone-on-bone rubbing on just one half of the joint. He fully recovered after 5 months. (clip is 2 minutes, 20 seconds).

Missed that news clip. Thanks for posting it here. Was interesting to see what happened during the surgery you recently performed on my right knee. Being an engineer I would have loved to watch it in progress. Two weeks and fully ambulatory, some swelling remains but I'm sleeping again at night and that's good.
Thanks to Dr. Tarlow, I was back on the golf course within five weeks. I was riding my bike after three weeks and following the therapy to a letter. What a difference the "uni" has made in my life!!!!!!
