However, in SONK, often just one side of the knee joint is afflicted, so unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) can be considered as an alternative that leads to a shorter recovery time. [3] A meta-analysis concluded that UKA was "an excellent alternative to TKA" with few complications and good survivorship. [3]
Specifically, Kienböck's disease is another name for avascular necrosis [2] (death and fracture of bone tissue due to interruption of blood supply) with fragmentation and collapse of the lunate.

The surgery aims to reduce the pressure in the FH capsule. In order to do this the surgeon drills holes into the necrotic bone of the FH to promote bleeding and healing in the FH while decreasing the pressure due to inflammation.
