Design of an efficient back-drivable semi-active above knee prosthesis [PDF]

, 2011
This paper presents the design and development of an electrical above knee prosthesis, which works as a passive knee prosthesis in part of gait cycle phases and as an active knee prosthesis during other portions. During the passive mode, the system works

No difference in patella mobility between conventional mechanically aligned and robotic‐assisted functionally aligned total knee arthroplasty

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted (RA) surgery allows for higher accuracy in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and for better standardization of alignment concepts. It was hypothesized that the more personalized component placement in functional robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA‐TKA) would show an impact on patella mobility and clinical outcome.

Impact of prosthetics and orthotics services on the quality of life of people with disabilities in India [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this study was to investigate the thoughts and feelings of the person who received a prosthesis or orthosis rather than evaluating the actual device which was prescibed and fitted.

Contemporary patellofemoral arthroplasty is associated with lower revision rates compared with the previous decade: A meta‐analysis using revisions per 100 component‐years

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to assess global data on patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA) survival a decade after a prior investigation by Reihs et al. using the same endpoints and data sources, aiming to quantify potential changes in implant survival over this period.

Left knee prosthesis-related Mycobacterium goodii infection [PDF]

, 2010
SummaryNon-tuberculous mycobacteria are increasingly being recognized as important human pathogens. We present the case of a 44-year-old non-diabetic male who underwent left total knee arthroplasty for degenerative arthritis after trauma.

Joint line obliquity disruption negatively affects mid‐term patient‐reported outcomes following total knee arthroplasty

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The influence of change in coronal alignment on clinical outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains unclear. The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification can be broken up into arithmetic hip–knee–ankle (aHKA) angle and joint line obliquity (JLO) components, potentially identifying distinct failure ...

The effect of tourniquet use on fixation quality in cemented total knee arthroplasty a prospective randomized clinical controlled RSA trial [PDF]

, 2014
A concern that arises with any change in technique is whether it affects the long-term implant stability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the early migration, measured by radiostereometric analysis (RSA), and the functional outcome of the ...

Atraumatic patellar prosthesis dislocation with patellar tendon injury following a total knee arthroplasty: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2010
Introduction Total knee arthroplasty is a well-established procedure with gratifying results. There is no consensus in the literature whether to routinely resurface the patella while performing total knee arthroplasty or not.
