Quadriceps malalignment is strongly associated with recurrent patellofemoral instability in native knees

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral instability (PFI) has been associated with multiple anatomical risk factors. The recent development of accurate quadriceps muscle measurements using three‐dimensional imaging techniques have demonstrated that quadriceps alignment is highly variable and frequently leads to a lateralised force vector on the patella.

Preoperative age, BMI and KL grade predict long‐term functional outcome of knee arthroplasty better than CPAK‐classification

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess whether coronal plane alignment of the knee (CPAK) is associated with functional outcome of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and identify factors predicting functional outcomes during 10 years of follow‐up in a prospective cohort. Methods In total, 250 patients aged 65 or younger were enrolled.

Prior anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparable outcomes but reduced knee flexion after robotic functionally aligned total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is technically demanding and has been associated with higher complication rates. This study aimed to evaluate whether patients with prior ACLR undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted TKA performed under functional alignment (FA) principles achieve ...

Increased radiolucency on conventional radiographs around tibial components does not imply more load‐induced displacement of a total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), radiolucent lines on routine conventional radiographs are commonly interpreted as impaired tibial component fixation, although their relation to implant motion remains unclear. This necessitates a comparison with measured component displacement.

Decreased posterior tibial slope is not a risk factor for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction failure: A multicentric analysis of 173 cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether posterior tibial slope (PTS) is associated with failure after posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLR) in a cohort of patients undergoing isolated PCLR and PCL‐based multiligament knee injuries (MLKI) reconstruction.

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is associated with greater patient preference but higher revision rates than total knee arthroplasty in the same patient: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Despite the high prevalence of isolated knee compartment disease, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is often avoided in patients with a contralateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of a contralateral TKA on functional outcomes, patient preference and long‐term survivorship following

Intraoperative variability between the anteroposterior and posterior condylar axes in primary TKA supports a 20° proximal trochlear entrance design for unrestricted kinematic alignment

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unrestricted kinematic alignment (uKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) creates a challenge for trochlear design. Femoral implants designed for mechanical alignment (MA) use asymmetrical posterior bone cuts to adjust axial rotation and optimize patellofemoral tracking. In uKA, posterior bone cuts are calipered resections.

No clinical and functional benefit after medial congruent compared to ultra congruent total knee arthroplasty at 1 year: A prospective randomized controlled study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Various conforming bearing designs are used during total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet their impact on clinical outcomes remains uncertain. In recent years, the use of medial congruent (MC) and ultra congruent (UC) onlays has gained popularity.

Tibia‐first, gap‐balanced patient‐specific alignment in total knee arthroplasty achieves better ligament balance than mechanical, kinematic and functional alignment strategies

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates four different alignment techniques to assess total knee arthroplasty (TKA) balance. Methods A prospective cohort of 400 patients undergoing primary robotic‐assisted cruciate‐retaining TKA was analysed. The Velys TKA robotic system collects a balance curve that enables the surgeon to intraoperatively analyse the ...
