Varus inclination of the proximal tibia or the distal femur does not influence high tibial osteotomy outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have analysed retrospectively the influence of different sources of knee deformity on failure of closing wedge high tibial valgus osteotomy (HTO). Preoperative frontal plane varus deformities of the lower extremity, distal femur and proximal tibia ...

3D printing and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yes, 2018
In suitable patients, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) offers a number of advantages compared with total knee arthroplasty. However, the procedure is technically demanding, with a small tolerance for error.

Fracture of the Femoral Component Caused by Insufficient Crimping after Modern Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2019
Fracture of a femoral component after modern unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is very rare. Although this is not the first case on this subject, no study has reported insufficient crimping as the cause of femoral component loosening that led to ...

Visual inspection provides precise intraoperative evaluation of tibial slope during unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Accurate reconstruction of the posterior tibial slope (PTS) is essential for successful unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), yet intraoperative assessment remains challenging without advanced navigation tools. This study evaluated the accuracy of visual intraoperative assessment of PTS changes after tibial resection.

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty vs. high tibial osteotomy for medial knee osteoarthritis (UNIKORN): a study protocol of a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2023
Background Medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common health problem resulting in knee pain and limiting patients’ physical activity. After failed conservative treatment, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and high tibial osteotomy (HTO) are ...

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, is it superior to high tibial osteotomy in treating unicompartmental osteoarthritis? A meta-analysis and systemic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Debate remains whether high tibial osteotomy (HTO) or unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is more beneficial for the treatment of unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis.

Age and Outcomes of Medial Meniscal-Bearing Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Arthroplasty, 2018
National joint registries report increasing revision rates with decreasing patient age for all types of joint arthroplasty. This study aimed to explore the effect of age on function and revision risk in patients undergoing medial meniscal-bearing UKA.A prospectively followed cohort of 1000 consecutive medial meniscal-bearing UKAs at a designer center ...
