Matched patients undergoing rTKA did have a shorter hospital length of stay (1.46 vs. 1.80 days, p  less then  0.001) and decreased rates of discharge to rehabilitation facilities (5.5 vs. 14.8%, p  less then  0.001). SF-12 scores were clinically similar. Multivariate analysis demonstrated no differences in any 90-day outcome. We conclude that patients undergoing rTKA have comparable costs, 90-day outcomes, and clinically similar improvements in functional outcome scores compared with mTKA patients. Further study is needed to determine whether rTKA will result in improved implant survivorship and long-term functional outcomes (Level of evidence III).The relationship between patellofemoral joint (PFJ) degeneration and clinical outcomes following lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has not been well described thus far. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the preoperative PFJ condition and postoperative outcomes and the changes in lower-limb and PFJ alignment after lateral UKA. This was a retrospective study including 54 patients (mean age 72.9 years) who underwent lateral UKA for isolated lateral knee osteoarthritis at our institution between March 2013 and January 2019. The Oxford Knee Score (OKS), the Knee Society Score-Knee (KSSK), and Knee Society Score-Function (KSSF), the degree of degeneration, tilting angle and lateral shift of the PFJ, and the hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) were evaluated pre- and postoperatively. The average follow-up period was 2.8 (range 1-6.1) years. There was a significant improvement in the OKS, KSSK, and KSSF after lateral UKA. Preoperative degeneration of the PFJ did not correlate with the recovery of clinical scores. The degeneration, tilting angle, and lateral shift of the PFJ did not significantly progress following lateral UKA. The HKA was improved after lateral UKA, and there was no correlation between the HKA change and PFJ condition. Postoper
