Why consider treatment in India?
Many international patients consider India for knee osteoarthritis treatment for several reasons, including:
More affordable estimates
Competitive indicative costs compared with many other countries, for similar clinical standards.
Internationally accredited hospitals
Hospitals experienced in treating international patients.
Experienced specialists
Doctors who regularly manage similar cases.
Care coordination support
A team to help with planning, medical translation and follow-up.
About the Procedure
What is Partial Knee Replacement?
Partial Knee Replacement (Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure that resurfaces only the damaged compartment of the knee joint, leaving healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments intact. It is typically recommended for patients with early-to-moderate osteoarthritis confined to one part of the knee, offering faster recovery and more natural knee movement compared to total knee replacement. This procedure helps relieve pain, restore mobility, and improve quality of life for eligible candidates.
Who may be considered?
Partial Knee Replacement may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Uses robotic-arm technology and 3D imaging to precisely plan and position the implant, improving alignment accuracy and preserving healthy tissue.
2 approaches available for this procedure:
Robotic-Assisted Partial Knee Replacement
Most PopularUses robotic-arm technology and 3D imaging to precisely plan and position the implant, improving alignment accuracy and preserving healthy tissue.
Comprehensive Investigations
Estimated cost: $300 - $700
X-ray of knee (weight-bearing views), MRI knee, CBC, blood sugar, kidney function tests, ECG, orthopedic surgeon consultation
Treatment / Procedure Estimate
Estimated cost in India: $6,500 - $9,500
Stay in India
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1-2 days
Hospitalisation: ~3-4 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~10-14 days recommended
Total stay: approx 14-18 days
Usually Included in Hospital Package
- Robotic-assisted surgery and implant
- Hospital stay in standard/private room
- Surgeon, anesthetist, and OT charges
- Post-op physiotherapy sessions
- Basic pre-op investigations
Usually Not Included
- International/domestic flights
- Visa and travel insurance
- Advanced imaging beyond standard protocol
- Extended hotel stay for companion
- Post-discharge medications beyond initial supply
Recovery and follow-up
Most patients begin walking with support within 24-48 hours after surgery and undergo a structured physiotherapy program for 4-6 weeks to regain strength and range of motion, with full recovery typically achieved within 6-8 weeks. A follow-up review with X-rays is recommended before flying back home and again at 3 months.
Risks
As with any joint surgery, potential risks include infection, blood clots, implant loosening, persistent stiffness, or progression of arthritis in the untreated compartments requiring future conversion to total knee replacement. These risks are minimized through careful patient selection and modern surgical techniques.
Alternatives
Non-surgical alternatives include physiotherapy, weight management, pain medication, and intra-articular injections (corticosteroid or hyaluronic acid), while total knee replacement remains an option for patients with more widespread joint damage.
What we need to prepare a formal estimate

Common questions
FAQs about Partial Knee Replacement in India
What is Knee Osteoarthritis?
Knee osteoarthritis is a chronic, degenerative condition in which the protective cartilage inside the knee joint wears down over time, causing the underlying bones to become painful and inflamed. It is not simply a consequence of 'wear and tear' in all individuals; genetic predisposition, biomechanical factors, prior injury, and metabolic influences all play a role.
What are the symptoms and health risks of Knee Osteoarthritis?
Common symptoms include persistent or activity-related knee pain, morning stiffness that typically eases within 30 minutes, swelling around the joint, a grinding or clicking sensation during movement, and a gradual reduction in the knee's range of motion. Over time, some people notice visible joint deformity, difficulty climbing stairs, or an altered walking pattern that places additional strain on the hips and lower back. It is important to note that the severity of symptoms does not always correspond directly to the degree of joint damage visible on imaging, and symptoms alone are not sufficient to establish a diagnosis or determine the appropriate course of treatment.
How is Knee Osteoarthritis diagnosed?
Diagnosis typically involves a detailed clinical history, a physical examination assessing joint tenderness, swelling, range of motion, and alignment, and weight-bearing X-rays of the knee, which remain the standard imaging investigation. Radiographic grading is most commonly performed using the Kellgren–Lawrence scale (grades 0–4), where higher grades indicate more advanced joint space narrowing and bone changes such as osteophytes and subchondral sclerosis. In selected cases, MRI may be used to evaluate soft tissue structures including menisci and ligaments, particularly when surgical planning is being considered or when the X-ray findings do not fully explain the clinical picture.
How is Knee Osteoarthritis treated?
Treatment is tailored to the individual based on symptom severity, radiographic grade, age, activity level, body weight, and overall health, and ranges from conservative measures through to surgical intervention. Mild to moderate osteoarthritis is commonly managed without surgery, while more advanced disease causing significant functional limitation and pain that has not responded to non-surgical approaches may be considered for procedural options such as arthroscopic knee surgery, partial knee replacement, or total knee replacement. The appropriate pathway can only be determined following individual assessment by a qualified clinician.
Can Knee Osteoarthritis be treated without a procedure?
Non-surgical management is a well-established and often effective first-line approach and may include structured physiotherapy to strengthen the muscles supporting the knee, weight management to reduce mechanical load on the joint, use of appropriate footwear or orthotics, activity modification, and pain management strategies such as topical or oral analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications. Intra-articular injections, including corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid preparations, may be considered in certain cases to provide symptomatic relief, though their duration of benefit varies between individuals. These options are typically supervised by an orthopaedic surgeon or a rheumatologist working alongside a physiotherapist and, where relevant, a dietitian.
When is Partial Knee Replacement considered for Knee Osteoarthritis?
Partial Knee Replacement may be considered only when it is appropriate for the confirmed diagnosis and the expected benefit outweighs the individual risks. The decision may depend on symptom severity, investigation results, previous treatment, overall health and the patient's goals. A specialist should discuss alternatives and recovery before any procedure is planned.
Which doctor treats Knee Osteoarthritis?
Knee osteoarthritis is primarily evaluated and managed by an orthopaedic surgeon specialising in knee conditions, and may also involve a rheumatologist, particularly in the earlier stages of the disease or when inflammatory joint conditions need to be excluded. A multidisciplinary team including physiotherapists and, where appropriate, pain specialists or rehabilitation physicians may also contribute to a comprehensive care plan.
How do I choose a doctor for Knee Osteoarthritis?
When selecting a specialist, it is worth considering their specific experience with knee joint conditions and the full range of treatment options they offer, from conservative management through to complex reconstructive surgery, as well as their hospital's accreditation, imaging and rehabilitation facilities, and their approach to shared decision-making and long-term follow-up.
What documents do international patients need to share for a medical evaluation?
Share a concise medical summary, symptom timeline, previous diagnoses, investigation and imaging reports, procedure or biopsy reports where relevant, current medicines, allergies and related treatment records. Provide clear copies with translations when needed. The reviewing doctor may request additional information before giving an opinion.
How does GAF Healthcare help international patients plan treatment in India?
Our care coordination team can review the initial information, help identify suitable doctors and hospitals, request a medical opinion where available, explain next steps and indicative cost information, and support practical planning before travel. A remote opinion does not replace an in-person examination or emergency care.
