Efficacy of functional alignment in total knee arthroplasty in restoring in vivo cruciate ligament forces and knee kinematics compared with mechanical alignment

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The impact of coronal alignment on cruciate ligament forces in bicruciate‐retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains unclear. We aimed to clarify in vivo cruciate ligament forces and knee kinematics among mechanically aligned (MA) and functionally aligned (FA) TKAs and normal knees.

MODERN TRENDS IN ORTHOPEDICS: THE KNEE ARTHROPLASTY

open access: yesTravmatologiâ i Ortopediâ Rossii, 2012
Using PubMed the authors analyzed publications dedicated to knee arthroplasty that were published in 2011. The modern trends of knee joint replacement include improvement of implants and instruments; partial knee replacement as alternative to TKA ...

Visual inspection provides precise intraoperative evaluation of tibial slope during unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Accurate reconstruction of the posterior tibial slope (PTS) is essential for successful unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), yet intraoperative assessment remains challenging without advanced navigation tools. This study evaluated the accuracy of visual intraoperative assessment of PTS changes after tibial resection.

Knee hyperextension is a sign of through‐range laxity and may be effectively managed without routine joint line distalisation in a robotic functional alignment workflow

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Traditional management of hyperextension deformity in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) involves routine under‐resection of distal femoral bone to lower the joint line and close the extension gap. This study aimed to assess how a robotic functional alignment (FA) workflow with pre‐resection gap assessment managed hyperextending knees to ...

Infection burden in total hip and knee arthroplasties: an international registry-based perspective

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2017
Background: Infection remains a leading cause of failure of hip and knee replacements. Infection burden is the ratio of implants revised for infection to the total number of arthroplasties in a specific period, measuring the steady state of infection in ...

Reduced postoperative inflammation and blood loss after robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental compared with total knee arthroplasty: A propensity score‐matched analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (raUKA) offers potential advantages over robotic arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA), but its biological benefits remain unclear. Superior early recovery after raUKA may be related to reduced systemic inflammation and blood loss.

Blood loss in primary total knee arthroplasty-body temperature is not a significant risk factor-a prospective, consecutive, observational cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Hypothermia related to anaesthesia and operating theatre environment is associated with increased blood loss in a number of surgical disciplines, including total hip arthroplasty.

Functional alignment in robotic total knee arthroplasty provides favourable outcomes and minimal early revisions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Functional alignment (FA) has emerged as a personalised alignment strategy in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), enabled by robotic‐assisted technology. Although early clinical results are encouraging, evidence remains heterogeneous and long‐term safety is uncertain.

Orthopaedic surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Over the past fifty years orthopaedic surgery made giant strides forward. It developed from a discipline that dealt primarily with the treatment of fractures, bone infections and tendon transfers and that treated degenerate joints by fusing them to one ...

Periprosthetic joint infection risk is comparable between unicompartmental knee arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty conversion and primary total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) offers benefits over total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but some studies indicated higher revision rates, often involving conversion to TKA. The infection risk associated with UKA to TKA conversion compared to primary TKA is not definitively established.
