T 5.1 Ct Evaluation of Femoral Component Rotation in Tka: Comparison of Tibial Axis Method to Transepicondylar Line
Purpose: Accepted landmarks for determining femoral component rotation in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) include the posterior condyles, Whiteside’s line, arbitrary three to four degrees of external rotation, and transepicondylar axis (TEA). All methods require anatomical identification, which may be variable. The purpose of this study was to radiologically evaluate femoral component rotation (C...
متن کاملThe Effect of Sagittal Femoral Bowing on the Femoral Component Position in Total Knee Arthroplasty
Background: In the current study, we investigated that how sagittal femoral bowing can affect the sagittal alignment ofthe femoral component in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods: There were 25 patients underwent TKA. Long leg radiography in lateral view was performed. The sagittalfemoral bowing (SFB) and component alignment in relation to the sagittal mechanical axis and distal anterior cor...
متن کاملIs There a Gold Standard for Rotational Alignment of the Tibial Component During
INTRODUCTION A successful total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is dependent on many factors, but component alignment is particularly critical. Aligning the femoral component parallel to the transepicondylar axis is generally regarded as the optimal rotational position, since it has been shown to produce a balanced joint, optimize patellar tracking, and minimize patellofemoral shear forces [1,2] the fe...
متن کاملAnterolateral Oblique Distal Femoral Osteotomy for the Removal of Well Fixed Cemented Femoral TKA Components
In the setting of periprosthetic joint infection, the complete removal of implants and cement can be challenging with well-fixed, cemented implants about the knee. This can get especially complex in the setting of long cemented femoral component stems. Osteotomies are well described in the proximal femur and tibia for removal of implants and cement. There is little information available on dist...
متن کاملCorrelation between the distal anterior femoral cortical axis and femoral rotational alignment: an anatomic study.
PURPOSE To determine the correlation between the distal anterior femoral cortical axis (DAFCA) and the femoral rotational alignment/axis. METHODS Magnetic resonance images (MRI) of 82 knees in 34 men and 23 women aged 16 to 47 (mean, 33.4) years were reviewed by a musculoskeletal radiologist. Their diagnoses included meniscal tear (n=4), chondromalacia (n=25), anterior cruciate ligament tears...
