e-Knee

Orthopaedic Nursing, 2006
Tibiofemoral forces determine polyethylene wear and affect the longevity of total knee prostheses. Previously, investigators relied on theoretic data from mathematical models to predict mechanical forces in the knee. Predictions of tibiofemoral forces are highly variable because of the complex interplay of the muscles involved in activities.

An unstable knee [PDF]

open access: possibleBMJ, 2017
A 28 year old man was brought to hospital after a road traffic incident. He described hearing a “pop” as his right knee impacted against the dashboard at the time of collision, and he subsequently experienced extreme pain. On examination in the emergency department, his knee was swollen and tender, and range of movement was severely limited.

Paraffinoma of the knee

Skeletal Radiology, 2003
We present the case of a 90-year-old man with a swollen, painful knee and a history of paraffin injections. Radiography showed soft tissue streaky and nodular calcifications without erosions. MR imaging showed globular areas of low signal intensity on T1- and T2-weighted images which became even more hypointense on STIR sequences, and an infiltrative ...

Questionnaire on the perceptions of patients about total knee replacement.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-british Volume, 1998
We have developed a 12-item questionnaire for patients having a total knee replacement (TKR). We made a prospective study of 117 patients before operation and at follow-up six months later, asking them to complete the new questionnaire and the form SF36.

Knee biomechanics and total knee replacement

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 1986
The biomechanics of the knee joint provide an important basis for the rationale in the design and selection of appropriate total knee arthroplasty. This article examines knee biomechanics in terms of patient function, prosthesis design, cruciate ligament retention, alignment, and fixation of the tibial component. While design and surgical technique for

Accuracy of Bone Resection in MAKO Total Knee Robotic-Assisted Surgery

The journal of knee surgery, 2019
Accurate component positioning and planning is vital to prevent malalignment of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) as malalignment is associated with an increased rate of polyethylene wear and revision arthroplasty.

Weak at the knees

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2010
A 54-year-old male truck driver presented with a recent history of difficulty walking, and particularly climbing the single step into his truck. This difficulty was accompanied by lower back pain, which extended into his legs, urinary hesitancy and constipation. An ulcer was also noted on the buccal surface of his lower lip. On examination of the lower

Total knee arthroplasty for the stiff knee

Interactive Surgery, 2008
The underlying cause of stiffness must be carefully evaluated when considering total knee arthrolasty for the stiff knee. Any previous skin incision must be recorded as well as the state of the extensor mechanism. The choice of prosthesis constraint should be decided on the state of the soft-tissues often released extensively to gain flexion.

High prevalence of knee osteoarthritis, pain, and functional limitations in female soccer players twelve years after anterior cruciate ligament injury.

Arthritis & Rheumatism, 2004
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA) as well as knee-related symptoms and functional limitations in female soccer players 12 years after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. METHODS Female soccer players
