Alignment in total knee arthroplasty : what’s in a name? [PDF]
Dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty is a well-documented phenomenon. Although many factors have been implicated, including modifiable and nonmodifiable patient factors, emphasis over the past decade has been on implant alignment and ...

Analysis of Posterior Tibial Slope as Risk Factor to Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear [PDF]
Objective The objective of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury by indirect trauma and increased posterior tibial inclination. Methods Retrospective study, performed by analysis

The correlation between posterior tibial slope and dynamic anterior tibial translation and dynamic range of tibial rotation [PDF]
AbstractPurposeThe amount of passive anterior tibial translation (ATT) is known to be correlated to the amount of posterior tibial slope (PTS) in both anterior cruciate ligament‐deficient and reconstructed knees. Slope‐altering osteotomies are advised when graft failure after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction occurs in the presence of ...

Posterior Slope Reducing Osteotomy With Concomitant Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Background: Modern techniques for graft choice, preparation, and fixation for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction demonstrate excellent longevity and return-to-play rates; however, up to 10% to 18% of cases continue to suffer reruptures, with

Popliteus impingement after TKA may occur with well-sized prostheses [PDF]
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 ...

Total knee arthroplasty and posterior tibial slope
Background: Total knee arthroplasty has been considered as a standard procedure for intractable pain in the end-stage degenerative arthritis of the knee and maintaining range of motion (ROM) to facilitate the ability to perform daily living activities.

Factors influencing the posterior tibial slope after medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy. [PDF]
IntroductionMedial Opening-wedge High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) is an effective treatment for medial compartment osteoarthritis and knee varus in relatively young and active patients. While it can effectively correct lower limb alignment in the coronal plane, it may also affect the posterior tibial slope (PTS) in the sagittal plane.
