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 ...

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.

Treatment of Unicompartmental Cartilage Defects of the Knee with Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty, Patellofemoral Partial Knee Arthroplasty or Focal Resurfacing

open access: yesLife, 2021
Focal chondral defects are common lesions of the articular cartilage. They are predominantly found on the medial femoral condyle and often progress to osteoarthritis of the knee. Various conservative treatment options are available.

In vivo kinematics of medial unicompartmental osteoarthritic knees during activities of daily living [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Few studies exist describing unicompartmental osteoarthritic knee kinematics. Moreover, the role of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the determination of knee kinematics has not been fully described.

Reduced postoperative inflammation and blood loss after robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental compared with total knee arthroplasty: A propensity score‐matched analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (raUKA) offers potential advantages over robotic arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA), but its biological benefits remain unclear. Superior early recovery after raUKA may be related to reduced systemic inflammation and blood loss.

Short term outcomes following robotic arm-assisted lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
IntroductionRobotic-arm assisted medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (RA-UKA) is associated with improved accuracy of implant positioning and excellent early functional outcomes. However, there is paucity of evidence regarding outcomes following RA-

A novel handheld robotic-assisted system for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: surgical technique and early survivorship. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Technology, including robotics, has been developed for use in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to improve accuracy and precision of bone preparation, implant positioning, and soft tissue balance.

Functional alignment in robotic total knee arthroplasty provides favourable outcomes and minimal early revisions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Functional alignment (FA) has emerged as a personalised alignment strategy in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), enabled by robotic‐assisted technology. Although early clinical results are encouraging, evidence remains heterogeneous and long‐term safety is uncertain.

Promising outcomes of medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in anterior cruciate ligament deficiency patients

open access: yesMedicinski Glasnik
Aim Recent studies challenge the initial belief that medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is contraindicated for patients with anterior cruciate ligament deficiency (ACLD) due to increased risk of periprosthetic tibial fractures, revealing ...
