Fixed or mobile-bearing total knee arthroplasty
Fixed and mobile-bearing in total knee arthroplasty are still discussed controversially. In this article, biomechanical and clinical aspects in both fixed and mobile-bearing designs were reviewed. In biomechanical aspect, the mobile-bearing design has proved to provide less tibiofemoral contact stresses under tibiofemoral malalignment conditions. It also provides less wear rate in in-vitro simu...
متن کاملModular, mobile-bearing hinge total knee arthroplasty.
Early reports of hinge total knee arthroplasty showed high rates of complications and implant failure. Third-generation modular, mobile-bearing, hinge knee arthroplasty systems have evolved to decrease the deleterious stresses that contributed to the failures of earlier designs. The combined series of Barrack et al and Jones et al documents midterm results using the S-ROM Hinge Knee System for ...
متن کاملAdvantages of Mobile-bearing Total Knee Arthroplasty
Early historical failure of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) was frequently secondary to aseptic loosening, often associated with malalignment, instability, or use of excessively constrained prosthetic components. With the addition of better surgical instrumentation and operative techniques (ligamentous balancing, improved alignment, etc.) and the use of lowerconformity prosthetic devices, looseni...
متن کاملFunctional Outcome Study in Total Knee Arthroplasty
Objective: The aim of this study was to validate the well-recognized outcome measure instruments (Medical Outcome Study Short Form-SF-36, Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index-WOMAC, McMaster Toronto Arthritis Patient Preference Disability Questionnaire-MACTAR) for patients who had undergone total knee arthroplasty in Iran, with its cultural and ethnic differences and com...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness analysis of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty as an alternative to total knee arthroplasty for unicompartmental osteoarthritis.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the cost-effectiveness of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty as an alternative to total knee arthroplasty in patients with degenerative arthritis limited to either the medial or lateral compartment. METHODS A decision model was created for the treatment of end-stage unicompartmental knee arthritis. A literature review was used to identify po...
