Dynamic coronal plane knee alignment: Femoral anatomy determines kinematic curve morphology, tibial anatomy determines curve position

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A single hip–knee–ankle angle (HKA) angle does not reflect the biomechanics of native, arthritic or prosthetic knees. Since HKA varies throughout flexion, dynamic coronal alignment is best represented by a kinematic curve plotting HKA against the range of motion.

The relation of body mass index, demographic and health-related variables to length of stay for patients at an acute rehabilitation hospital after total hip arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Obesity is a growing public health concern world-wide. At the same time, knee and hip replacements are becoming an increasingly regular treatment for osteoarthritis.

Prior osteosynthesis—unlike osteotomy—raises revision risk after total knee arthroplasty, predominantly via periprosthetic infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Previous knee surgery is discussed as a risk factor for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet most reports do not distinguish between osteotomy and osteosynthesis. The German Operationen‐ und Prozedurenschlüssel (OPS)‐based classification was used to compare the impact of these procedures on implant survival, mortality and complications ...

Blood loss in primary total knee arthroplasty-body temperature is not a significant risk factor-a prospective, consecutive, observational cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Hypothermia related to anaesthesia and operating theatre environment is associated with increased blood loss in a number of surgical disciplines, including total hip arthroplasty.

Improved surgical accuracy in total knee arthroplasty using the ROSA® knee system: A randomised‐controlled unblinded trial

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) has been connected to improved surgical precision and implant alignment compared to conventional TKA (CTKA), with limited evidence from randomised‐controlled trials (RCT) and a large range of different systems on the market. Consequently, this study aimed to compare RATKA using the ROSA®

Knee hyperextension is a sign of through‐range laxity and may be effectively managed without routine joint line distalisation in a robotic functional alignment workflow

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Traditional management of hyperextension deformity in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) involves routine under‐resection of distal femoral bone to lower the joint line and close the extension gap. This study aimed to assess how a robotic functional alignment (FA) workflow with pre‐resection gap assessment managed hyperextending knees to ...

Fracture of the neck of an uncemented femoral component unrelated to trunnion corrosion

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2019
This is the first report, to our knowledge, of a fracture, unrelated to trunnion corrosion, through the midneck of a well-fixed uncemented cobalt-chromium alloy femoral component that had been implanted via a total hip revision arthroplasty 25 years ago.

Medial hinge fracture after closing wedge high tibial osteotomy: Proposing a new classification and risk factor analysis of a neglected complication

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Contralateral hinge fracture is one of the most common complications of medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO), however, this complication has been poorly investigated after closing‐wedge HTO (CW‐HTO). The primary aim of this study was to describe the incidence and characteristics and propose a classification system of medial

Weight changes following lower limb arthroplasty : a prospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The aim of this study was to assess patterns of weight loss/gain following total hip or knee joint replacement. Four hundred and fifty primary lower limb arthroplasty patients, where the current surgery was the last limiting factor to improved mobility ...

Patients with previous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction achieve equally good outcomes after total knee arthroplasty: A Swedish registry‐based study of 7755 patients

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may later require total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to osteoarthritis (OA). The impact of previous ACLR on patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) after TKA remains uncertain.
