A New Physical Examination Technique for Evaluating Valgus Knee Deformity: Swing Test
Valgus deformity can exist during knee flexion besides extension, which could lead to patellofemoral joint instability and soft tissue imbalance in the flexion gap, and thus complicate the surgical procedures. Valgus deformity during knee flexion can be measured by radiographic analysis using long‐film radiograph and computed tomography (CT) scans.[4] It usually results from a bone defect in th...
متن کاملSevere Valgus Deformity of the Knee: Description of New Surgical Technique for Its Correction
Varus supracondylar osteotomy of the femur is the established procedure for treating painful knees that present lateral arthrosis and valgus deformity. In descriptions of the conventional surgical techniques, there are divergences regarding the location, access route, correction level, fixation type and area for synthesis insertion. This is most evident in cases of severe valgus with angles gre...
متن کاملTotal knee arthroplasty for severe valgus knee deformity.
BACKGROUND Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in severe valgus knees may prove challenging, and choice of implant depends on the severity of the valgus deformity and the extent of soft-tissue release. The purpose of this study was to review 8 to 11 years (mean, 10 years) follow-up results of primary TKA for varient-III valgus knee deformity with use of different type implants. METHODS Betw...
متن کاملEffect of Fatigue on Knee Kinematics During Countermovement Jumps in Female Students of Physical Education With Valgus Knee Deformity
Objectives: Skeletal-muscular disorders affect the biomechanics of the human body, especially the lower extremity, with a negative effect on the biomechanics of exercise. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of fatigue on the kinematic variables of knee joints during countermovement jumps in female students of physical education with valgus knee deformity. Methods: Fifte...
متن کاملTotal Knee Arthroplasty for Severe Valgus Knee Deformity with a Thin Bowl Shaped Patella
Valgus knee is associated with exaggerated dysfunction of the patello-femoral joint and the lateral compartment of the femorotibial joint, and may be associated with contracture of the lateral soft tissues and laxity of the medial soft tissues. The authors encountered a case of severe valgus knee deformity with a thin bowl-shaped patella. The case was treated with total knee arthroplasty (TKA),...
