Hello,

I have studied your case.

If you can send your x ray report then I can better comment regarding unilateral joint replacement or TKR.


Total knee joint replacement patient find good difference in mobility after joint replacement.
So you can do TKR after consulting joint replacement surgeon, there will not be any problem probably.
