Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic disease that seriously endangers the health of the elderly. Choosing appropriate surgery for knee osteoarthritis patients is especially important....
To investigate the safety and efficacy of unicondylar knee prosthesis treatment for unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee....
One hundred patients with unicondylar osteoarthritis of the knee treated in our hospital from June 2019 to June 2021 were selected as retrospective study subjects and were divided into 50 cases each i...
The AKS score and knee flexion angle score of the observation group were higher than those of the comparison group after surgery. However, the tibial angle orthopedic score of the observation group wa...
The clinical efficacy of unicondylar knee prosthesis replacement for osteoarthritis of the knee is better than that of unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) treatment....
Rotationplasty of the knee joint is an established biological reconstruction method with excellent clinical results for patients with tumor-associated resection of the knee joint. The changed biomecha...
A prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is possibly the most significant potential complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and is associated with substantial morbidity and socioeconomic burden. It is...
While all lower limb prosthesis walkers have a high risk of tripping and/or falling, above knee prosthesis users are reported to fall more frequently. Recognising this, engineers designed microprocess...
Survival and reconstruction in osteosarcoma is quite challenging. The study aimed to investigate the prognosis in patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and determine the clinical outcomes of ...
From January 2009 to December 2014, we retrospectively analyzed 29 skeletally immature children (mean age, 10.5 years; range, 6-15 years) with osteosarcoma around the knee. Of the 29 patients who unde...
A mean follow-up time was 8.9 years (range, 6-12 years), and the overall 5-year survival was 89.1% based on Kaplan-Meier analysis. Three patients suffered a relapse and one underwent amputation. Lung ...
Chemotherapy scheme and limb salvage can achieve high survival rates. This expandable prosthesis was associated with good function and low complication rates. The character of expandability could be a...
The number of total knee arthroplasties (TKA) is rising in many countries along with the numbers of the revision TKA. Rotating hinge knee (RHK) implants have a fundamental role in the revision TKA and...
The use of hinged knee replacements (HKRs) for limb salvage is a popular option for revision total knee arthroplasty (RTKA). Although recent literature focuses on the outcomes of HKR for septic and as...
A multicenter, retrospective review was conducted on consecutive patients who received HKR from January 2010 to February 2020 with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Patients were separated into two grou...
One-hundred fifty patients were included. Eighty-five patients received HKR because of prior infection, and 65 received HKR for aseptic revision. A larger proportion of septic RTKA returned to the OR ...
HKR implantation for aseptic revision is more reliable with a lower revision surgery rate. Concomitant flap reconstruction increased the risk of revision surgery, regardless of indication for RTKA usi...
prognostic, level III evidence....
Anterior knee pain following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with patient dissatisfaction. Factors related to postoperative anterior knee pain and its impact on patient outcomes are poorly...
This retrospective study included 506 patients who had undergone elective primary unilateral TKA with a posterior-stabilized prosthesis and patellar resurfacing. Outcome measures prior to and 12 month...
Prevalence of anterior knee pain was 72% prior to and 15% following TKA. Patients who had preoperative anterior knee pain had twice the risk of experiencing anterior knee pain after TKA than patients ...
One in 7 patients reported anterior knee pain 12 months following posterior-stabilized and patella-resurfaced TKA. The presence of preoperative anterior knee pain and worse self-reported function are ...
In up to a fifth of total knee replacements (TKR), surgeons are not capable of achieving good clinical and functional results. Despite comprehensive diagnostic workup, an underlying cause is not alway...
Native trochlear angles of 4116 knee CTs from 360 Knee Systems database of arthritic pre-operative TKR patients were evaluated. A semi-automated tridimensional analysis was performed to define the nat...
The mean native trochlear angle (NTA) was 1.6° ± 6.6° (valgus) with a range from - 23.8° (varus) to 30.3°(valgus). A valgus NTA was present in 60.6% of the knees and 39.4% of them had a varus NTA. 89 ...
This study shows a significant mismatch between native and prosthetic trochlear angles. A relevant proportion of the studied knees (41.45%) fall out of the trochlear angle range of currently available...
Level III, retrospective cohort study....
The aim of this study is to explore the safety and efficacy of single condylar knee prosthesis when treating knee single compartment osteoarthritis by measuring the decrease of hemoglobin, total posto...
A total of 80 patients with knee joint single compartment osteoarthritis treated in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were studied. They were randomly assigned to a study group (...
The decrease of hemoglobin in the study group at 24 hours, 36 hours, and 48 hours after treatment was remarkably lower (...
The unicondylar knee prosthesis is safer and more effective in the treatment of noncompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee, facilitating less trauma and perioperative blood loss and enhancing the pat...
