Computer-Assisted TKR Vs Conventional TKR: Post-Operative Ankle Radiographic Finding and Ankle Clinical Assessment

Material and Method: 28 patients, 56 knees, whom underwent both CAS total knee replacement (TKR) and conventional total knee replacement (TKR), in both knees, with the combination of Gap Balance and Measurement Resection techniques performed by one surgeon (P. Sriphirom) at Rajavithi Hospital, Bangkok. The post-operative has a 12 months follow-up for ankle radiographic finding by tibiotalar angle (TTA), tibial articular surface angle (TAS), and talar tilt (TT) = (TAS-TTA) and for ankle clinical assessment by foot functional index (FFI) from pre-operation and post-operation from both groups. The study also compares the CAS TKR with the Conventional TKR for pre-operation and postoperation.
