Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Fixed flexion deformity (FFD) is traditionally addressed in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with extensive soft tissue release and distal femoral recut, which increases bone stock consumption and raises the knee joint line (JL). This study aimed to evaluate differences in the anatomical restoration of the JL and bone stock preservation ...

Designing Electronics for an Artificial Leg [PDF]
, 2015 A regenerative prosthesis is modeled and simulated. The simulation is optimized with the biogeography-based optimization algorithm to obtain desired knee angle tracking with a reference knee trajectory and to regenerate energy.

Retractable Prosthesis for Transfemoral Amputees Using Series Elastic Actuators and Force Control [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We present a highly functional and cost-effective prosthesis for transfemoral amputees that uses series elastic actuators. These actuators allow for accurate force control, low impedance and large dynamic range. The design involves one active joint at the knee and a passive joint at the ankle.

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Alignment strategies in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have predominantly emphasized coronal alignment in extension, with minimal focus on dynamic alignment during flexion. This study aims to identify the predictors of the intraoperative robotic hip–knee–ankle angle at 90° of flexion (rHKA‐90F) and assess its clinical significance in ...

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose To analyse the quantitative morphology of the menisci, their roots and relations with a focus on the medial meniscus anterior root (MAR) as a basis for a preclinical model. Methods Data was obtained from 24 tibial plateaus of skeletally mature, female Merino ewes. The MAR attachment (MARA) was scanned with micro‐computed tomography and

Popliteus impingement after TKA may occur with well-sized prostheses [PDF]
, 2016 To determine the mechanisms and extents of popliteus impingements before and after TKA and to investigate the influence of implant sizing. The hypotheses were that (1) popliteus impingements after TKA may occur at both the tibia and the femur, and (2 ...

Acta Orthopaedica, 2015 Background and purpose — While highly crosslinked polyethylene has shown reduced in vivo wear and lower rates of revision for total hip arthroplasty, there have been few long-term studies on its use in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and new alignment principles are transforming traditional implant positioning, not only in the coronal plane but also in the sagittal and axial planes. The impact of differences between a patient's native tibial slope (TS) and distal femoral flexion (DFF) compared to the final implant ...
