Knee Morphology as a Guide to Knee Replacement
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975The complexity of knee geometry requires correct prosthesis design and size selection for the recipient. This study analyzes the morphological relationships within the knee; 16 linear anatomical parameters were measured on 30 cadaveric knees. The marginal femoral condylar contour was geometrically described by two tangent radii.

Total knee arthroplasty in stiff knee compared with flexible knees
MUSCULOSKELETAL SURGERY, 2011This retrospective study was done to evaluate the results of total knee arthroplasty performed on 32 patients with stiff knee, having a preoperative arc of movement between 0° and 50° (average 30°). This group of patients were matched with a group of 32 flexible knees, randomly selected from the same cohort of patients who underwent knee arthroplasty ...

Total Knee Arthroplasty in Valgus Knees
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1991One hundred thirty-four total knee arthroplasties in 98 patients with a valgus alignment were analyzed. Knees with a preoperative alignment of 10 degrees or greater anatomic valgus were believed suitable for inclusion. The average follow-up period in these patients was 4.5 years (range, two to ten years).

Knee Stability and Knee Ligament Injuries
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1975Controversy exists on the relationship of knee ligament stability to knee injuries. Subjective evaluation of joint tightness or looseness has been proposed as a criterion for prescribing selective corrective strengthening or stretching exercises. Biomechanical studies of knee ligament stability were performed on 401 college football players from 1969 ...
