Decreased posterior tibial slope is not a risk factor for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction failure: A multicentric analysis of 173 cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether posterior tibial slope (PTS) is associated with failure after posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLR) in a cohort of patients undergoing isolated PCLR and PCL‐based multiligament knee injuries (MLKI) reconstruction.

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is associated with greater patient preference but higher revision rates than total knee arthroplasty in the same patient: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Despite the high prevalence of isolated knee compartment disease, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is often avoided in patients with a contralateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of a contralateral TKA on functional outcomes, patient preference and long‐term survivorship following

Intraoperative variability between the anteroposterior and posterior condylar axes in primary TKA supports a 20° proximal trochlear entrance design for unrestricted kinematic alignment

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unrestricted kinematic alignment (uKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) creates a challenge for trochlear design. Femoral implants designed for mechanical alignment (MA) use asymmetrical posterior bone cuts to adjust axial rotation and optimize patellofemoral tracking. In uKA, posterior bone cuts are calipered resections.

No clinical and functional benefit after medial congruent compared to ultra congruent total knee arthroplasty at 1 year: A prospective randomized controlled study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Various conforming bearing designs are used during total knee arthroplasty (TKA), yet their impact on clinical outcomes remains uncertain. In recent years, the use of medial congruent (MC) and ultra congruent (UC) onlays has gained popularity.

Rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty

open access: yes, 2009
The short- and long-term benefits of post-discharge physiotherapy regimens after total knee arthroplasty are debatable. A national survey including hospitals in Denmark that perform total knee arthroplasty showed a large variability in indication and ...

Tibia‐first, gap‐balanced patient‐specific alignment in total knee arthroplasty achieves better ligament balance than mechanical, kinematic and functional alignment strategies

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates four different alignment techniques to assess total knee arthroplasty (TKA) balance. Methods A prospective cohort of 400 patients undergoing primary robotic‐assisted cruciate‐retaining TKA was analysed. The Velys TKA robotic system collects a balance curve that enables the surgeon to intraoperatively analyse the ...

Sagittal femoral morphology is not associated with robotic planning or soft‐tissue balance during robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty: An analysis from the Brescia Knee Research Group

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the influence of sagittal femoral morphology on robotic planning parameters and intraoperative soft‐tissue balance in robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It was hypothesised that sagittal femoral morphology has limited impact on intraoperative planning and laxity.

Coronal alignment behaviour across the knee range of motion is associated with constitutional alignment and soft‐tissue balance: The REAL HKA classification

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate intraoperative, pre‐resection coronal alignment throughout the range of motion (ROM) in knees undergoing robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (ra‐TKA), and to assess its relationship with the Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) and the Robotic Evaluation of Articular Laxity (REAL) classifications.

Femoral component internal rotation in functionally aligned robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty does not impair functional outcomes

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Femoral component internal rotation tightens the medial flexion gap and medialises femoral trochlea position, thus influencing patellofemoral tracking and function. Therefore, one of the tenets of mechanically aligned total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been to avoid femoral component internal rotation relative to the transepicondylar ...
