Guiding Principles and Pearls in a Stepwise Surgical Technique of Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty.
The authors aim at reviewing the guiding principles in revision total knee arthroplasty according to a stepwise procedure. Strict preoperative planning is of paramount importance for this surgery. Thorough clinical history and physical exam, the assessment of limb deformity and knee range of motion as well as knee stability in flexion, extension and mid-flexion are crucial. Blood exam, standard...
متن کاملA technique of staged lateral release to correct patellar tracking in total knee arthroplasty.
Optimal patellar tracking and component alignment are important in achieving a well-functioning total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The patella is constrained partly by design of the prosthetic trochlear groove, and patellar tracking is governed by a combination of static and dynamic factors. Maltracking may result from excessive or unbalanced tension in the surrounding soft tissues. This article de...
متن کاملArthroscopic Meniscal Repair: “Modified Outside-In Technique”
Background: Despite the introduction of different techniques for meniscal repair, no single procedure is superior in all situations. The new method for meniscal repair named “ modified outside-in technique ” aims to achieve higher primary fixation strength by an alternative suture technique as well as avoid disadvantages of outside-in, inside-out, and all-inside suture procedures. Additionally...
متن کاملTotal knee arthroplasty using a hybrid navigation technique
The use of computer navigation is becoming a well-recognized technical alternative to conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, computer navigation has a substantial learning curve and the use of commercially available navigation systems increases surgical time. In addition, the potential risks associated with the navigation TKA, such as, registration errors, notching of the anterior...
متن کاملThe outside-in subcutaneous arthroscopically assisted lateral retinacular release: a new technique.
Arthroscopic lateral retinacular release in the knee has been used extensively for the treatment of patellar pain and instability. The release can be performed using a number of techniques, but achieving access to the retinaculum can often be difficult, particularly in obese patients. We describe a simple modification of an arthroscopically assisted method, which utilises electrosurgery through...
