Althoughseveral studies have reported the objective outcome of TKA in RA and OA patients, few studies have compared postoperativepatient-satisfaction levels.Methods: I...
متن کاملComparison of Clinical Results between Patellar Resurfacing and Non-resurfacing in Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Short Term Evaluation

Thus, we have performed this study to compare theshort-term clinical outcomes of TKA performed with and without the patella resurfacing.Methods: A total of 50 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee (OAK) were random...
متن کاملTotal knee arthroplasty with subvastus approach in patient with chronic post-traumatic patellar dislocation☆

The neglected chronic dislocation leads to progressive genu valgum and external tibial torsion deformities with subsequent gonarthrosis, which becomes painful and debilitating. There is no consensus regarding treatment of these patients, but total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a...
متن کاملEvidence is not sufficient for selecting the subvastus approach in total knee arthroplasty.
Evidence is Not Sufficient for Selecting the Subvastus Approach in Total Knee Arthroplasty To the Editor: We read the article “Subvastus and Medial Parapatellar Approaches in TKA: Comparison of Functional Results”1 in the June 2011 issue of Orthopedics with interest. The authors reported that patients in the subvastus group achieved better functional results and had less pain at 12 days postope...
متن کاملRepair of medial collateral ligament injury during total knee arthoplasty.
Intraoperative midsubstance lacerations of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) must be addressed during surgery, and failure to obtain coronal plane stability could affect patient outcomes and satisfaction. This article reports our results of a series of patients who sustained an intraoperative MCL injury during a primary total knee arthroplasty and were treated by direct primary repair and no...
