Patellofemoral Crepitus after Total Knee Arthroplasty: Etiology and Preventive Measures
Patellofemoral crepitus and clunk syndrome are infrequent, yet troublesome complications of total knee arthroplasty with a reported incidence of 0%-18%. They are primarily associated with implantation of posterior cruciate substituting designs. These entities are the result of peripatellar fibrosynovial hyperplasia at the junction of the superior pole of the patella and the distal quadriceps te...
متن کاملMalrotation causing patellofemoral complications after total knee arthroplasty.
Thirty patients with isolated patellofemoral complications after total knee arthroplasty were compared with 20 patients with well functioning total knee replacements without patellofemoral complications. The epicondylar axis and tibial tubercle were used as references on computed tomography scans to measure quantitatively rotational alignment of the femoral and tibial components. The group with...
متن کاملConversion 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 کاملIs further treatment necessary for patellar crepitus after total knee arthroplasty?
BACKGROUND Patellar crepitus may occur with posterior-stabilized (PS) TKAs. Several studies have suggested numerous etiologies of patellar crepitus after PS-TKA with patellar resurfacing. However, it is unclear whether and to what degree crepitus influences pain and function without or with patellar resurfacing. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We therefore determined (1) the frequency of crepitus; (2) whi...
متن کاملBicompartmental versus total knee arthroplasty for medial and patellofemoral osteoarthritis.
PURPOSE To compare the outcome of bicompartmental knee arthroplasty (BKA) versus total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with medial and patellofemoral knee osteoarthritis. METHODS Records of 17 women and 10 men with medial and patellofemoral osteoarthritis of the knee who underwent BKA (n=15) or TKA (n=12) were reviewed. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. Patient haemoglobin...
