Unicondylar osteoarticular allografts of the knee.
BACKGROUND In the management of a resected distal femoral or proximal tibial condyle as the result of tumor or trauma, a unicondylar osteoarticular allograft is currently the only reconstructive option that avoids the sacrifice of the unaffected condyle. The purposes of this study were to perform a survival analysis of unicondylar osteoarticular allografts of the knee and to evaluate the compli...
متن کاملSensitivity of knee replacement contact calculations to kinematic measurement errors.
The ability to measure in vivo knee kinematics accurately makes it tempting to calculate in vivo contact forces, pressures, and areas directly from kinematic data. However, the sensitivity of contact calculations to kinematic measurement errors has not been adequately investigated. To address this issue, we developed a series of sensitivity analyses derived from a validated in vivo computationa...
متن کاملRevision of Unicondylar to Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review
Isolated unicompartmental osteoarthritis in the young patient is a difficult problem to treat; they may be too young to consider total knee arthroplasty due to difficulties with inevitable future revision. Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is one possible solution as it is perceived by some as being a smaller surgical insult than total knee arthroplasty, with easier revision to total knee arth...
متن کاملProprioception after unicondylar knee arthroplasty versus total knee arthroplasty.
Proprioception was measured in 2 groups of patients after successful knee arthroplasty. Twenty-eight patients had total knee arthroplasty and their results were compared with an age matched group of 10 subjects who had undergone unicondylar knee arthroplasty. The threshold to detection of passive motion was quantified as a measure of proprioception. The degree of preoperative arthritis was obje...
متن کاملComparison of patient-reported outcome measures following total and unicondylar knee replacement.
Following arthroplasty of the knee, the patient's perception of improvement in symptoms is fundamental to the assessment of outcome. Better clinical outcome may offset the inferior survival observed for some types of implant. By examining linked National Joint Registry (NJR) and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) data, we aimed to compare PROMs collected at a minimum of six months post-o...
