Total knee arthroplasty and posterior tibial slope
Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) has been considered as a standard procedure for intractable pain in the end-stage degenerative arthritis of the knee and maintaining range of motion (ROM) to facilitate the ability to perform daily living activities. 1 Factors that have been associated with the change in ROM after TKA include preoperative ROM, implant design, patient characteristics, posterior femo...
متن کاملMeasurement of Posterior Tibial Slope Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Background: Posterior tibial slope (PTS) is an important factor in the knee joint biomechanics and one of the bone features, which leads to knee joint stability. Posterior tibial slope affects flexion gap, knee joint stability and posterior femoral rollback that are related to wide range of knee motion. During high tibial osteotomy and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery, proper retaining the...
متن کاملEffect of Posterior Femoral Condylar Offset and Posterior Tibial Slope on Maximal Flexion Angle of the Knee in Posterior Cruciate Ligament Sacrificing Total Knee Arthroplasty
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of femoral condylar offset and posterior tibial slope on maximal flexion angle of the knee in posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)-sacrificing total knee arthroplasty (TKA, Medial-Pivot Knee System). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-five knees in 35 patients who could be followed up more than 1 year after PCL-sacrificing TKA were evaluated retrospectively. We measured a...
متن کاملAnterior opening wedge high tibial osteotomy: the effect of increasing posterior tibial slope on ligament strain.
BACKGROUND Although a previous study showed that anterior opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO) for sagittal plane correction induced no increased strain in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), we hypothesized that other ligamentous restraints of the knee may be subjected to increased strain. METHODS We mounted 6 cadaveric knees at 15 degrees flexion in a testing apparatus that provided ...
متن کاملThe effect of high tibial osteotomy on the posterior tibial slope.
INTRODUCTION High tibial osteotomy remains a useful procedure for delaying total knee arthroplasty for young patients with unicompartimental medial osteoarthritis of the knee. The tibial posterior slope is essential for both ligament function and knee kinematics. Even though many articles were published in the literature, the long term influence of open wedge high tibial osteotomy on the poster...
