Neutral boundary alignment in total knee arthroplasty: a novel concept

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2020
The goal of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery is to provide a stable and functional knee joint using current implant designs. Several alignment philosophies and surgical techniques have been introduced to provide a stable and functional knee joint ...

Computer assisted total knee arthroplasty using patient specific templates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Current techniques used for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) rely on conventional instrumentation (CI) systems that violate the intramedullary canals. The accuracy of these systems is questionable, and set up and assembly of their numerous pieces is time ...

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty is more precise than conventional total knee arthroplasty in restoring knee, but not ankle alignment: a retrospective study based on imaging data

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Knee osteoarthritis often leads to varus deformity, disrupting lower limb alignment and potentially causing ankle osteoarthritis. While total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can correct knee alignment and improve ankle alignment, the impact of ...

Standardized loads acting in knee implants

open access: yes, 2014
The loads acting in knee joints must be known for improving joint replacement, surgical procedures, physiotherapy, biomechanical computer simulations, and to advise patients with osteoarthritis or fractures about what activities to avoid. Such data would

The unicompartmental knee is the preferred side in individuals with both a unicompartmental and total knee arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose To determine the preferred knee in patients with both one total and one unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. Method Patients simply with a unicompartmental (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) on contralateral sides were retrospectively ...
