Conversion of patellofemoral arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The long-term outcome of patellofemoral arthroplasty is related to progression of femorotibial osteoarthritis with need for conversion to total knee arthroplasty. We investigated whether prior patellofemoral arthroplasty compromises the results of total knee arthroplasty. METHODS 13 patients who had had 14 Richards type II patellofemoral arthroplasties converted to tota...
متن کاملBicompartmental knee arthroplasty vs total knee arthroplasty for the treatment of medial compartment and patellofemoral osteoarthritis
Background Interest in bicompartmental knee arthroplasty (BKA) for the treatment of medial patellofemoral osteoarthritis (MPFOA) has grown in recent years because BKA offers a bone and ligament-preserving alternative to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). BKA only resurfaces the diseased compartments, while preserving proprioception and native knee kinematics. Therefore, the objective of this study ...
متن کاملUnicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty: Modes of Failure and Conversion to Total Knee Arthroplasty
Despite the excellent success rates of the modern unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), results of knee replacement registries still shows a relatively high revision and failure rate for UKA, especially when compared with traditional total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Bearing dislocation continues to be advocated as the predominant mechanism of failure in mobile UKA, whereas polyethylene wear a...
متن کاملConversion of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty: the challenges and need for augments.
The potential advantages of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) include lower morbidity and mortality, quicker recovery, good range of motion, good medium and long-term survival results, potential bone conservation and perceived easier revision. Converting a UKA to a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may be challenging due to issues of bone loss, need for augmentation, restoring joint line and...
متن کاملconversion of fused knee following distal femur tumor surgery to total knee arthroplasty
conversion of knee arthrodesis to total knee arthroplasty is a difficult procedure accompanied by many complications due to soft tissue and extensor mechanism contracture and bone defects. we report two cases of distal femur osteosarcoma that had been undergone wide resection arthrodesis initially. arthrodesis was converted to total knee arthroplasty with hinged prosthesis after many years. we ...
