Kinematically aligned TKA can align knee joint line to horizontal

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: The joint line of the native knee is horizontal to the floor and perpendicular to the vertical weight-bearing axis of the patient in a bipedal stance.

Restoration of CPAK type in total knee arthroplasty does not lead to superior clinical outcome: A study based on arthroplasty registry data

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the pre‐ and post‐operative distribution of patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty among the nine categories of the Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee—CPAK classification (Aim 1). Another goal was to assess whether the clinical outcome (patient‐reported outcome and implant survival) differed between those whose CPAK ...

Quadriceps malalignment is strongly associated with recurrent patellofemoral instability in native knees

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral instability (PFI) has been associated with multiple anatomical risk factors. The recent development of accurate quadriceps muscle measurements using three‐dimensional imaging techniques have demonstrated that quadriceps alignment is highly variable and frequently leads to a lateralised force vector on the patella.

The Use of NMES after TKA

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose: This case study is aimed at determining if Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) and physical therapy (PT) are better for increasing lower extremity strength and function in patients following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) compared to ...

Preoperative age, BMI and KL grade predict long‐term functional outcome of knee arthroplasty better than CPAK‐classification

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess whether coronal plane alignment of the knee (CPAK) is associated with functional outcome of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and identify factors predicting functional outcomes during 10 years of follow‐up in a prospective cohort. Methods In total, 250 patients aged 65 or younger were enrolled.

Clinical value of SPECT/CT in the painful total knee arthroplasty (TKA): a prospective study in a consecutive series of 100 TKA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Purpose: Bone single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT is considered as beneficial in unhappy patients with pain, stiffness or swelling after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Prior anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparable outcomes but reduced knee flexion after robotic functionally aligned total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is technically demanding and has been associated with higher complication rates. This study aimed to evaluate whether patients with prior ACLR undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted TKA performed under functional alignment (FA) principles achieve ...

Comparison of Clinical Results between Bilateral TKA and Unilateral TKA

open access: yesOrthopedics & Traumatology, 2010
今回我々は両側罹患例に対して一期的両側TKAを施行し,その術後成績,その他問題点について片側TKAと比較検討した.当院においてH18年4月よりH21年5月の期間,手術をおこなった142症例(両側51例102膝,片側91例91膝)を対象とした.一期的両側TKAは片側TKAと術後成績に差がなく致死的合併症も認められなかったので有用であると考えられた.ただ,対象に高齢者が多いので術前に患者側とのインファームド・コンセントを十分におこない,手術スタッフや他科との綿密な打ち合わせ,特に循環器科や脳神経外科とのtie upが必要である.

Increased radiolucency on conventional radiographs around tibial components does not imply more load‐induced displacement of a total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), radiolucent lines on routine conventional radiographs are commonly interpreted as impaired tibial component fixation, although their relation to implant motion remains unclear. This necessitates a comparison with measured component displacement.

Effectiveness of ultrasonographic skeletal muscle assessment in patients after total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesOsteoporosis and Sarcopenia, 2019
Objectives: This study aimed to characterize the skeletal muscles of patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using ultrasonography in order to investigate the effectiveness of ultrasonographic skeletal muscle assessment after TKA.
