Medial pivot knee in primary total knee arthroplasty.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with a medial pivot design was developed in order to mimic normal knee kinematics; the highly congruent medial compartment implant should improve clinical results and decrease contact stresses. Clinical and radiographic mid-term outcomes are satisfactory, but we need other studies to evaluate long-term results and indications for unusual cases.

Correlation between knee kinematics and patellofemoral contact pressure in total knee arthroplasty.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between patellofemoral contact stress and intraoperative knee kinematic patterns after mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Medial osteoarthritic knees of forty-six posterior-stabilized total knee prostheses were evaluated using a computed tomography-guided navigation system. Subjects were divided into two groups based on intraopera...

The aims of the current study were to examine polyethylene particles in synovial fluid at an early stage, and to compare a newly introduced medial pivot total knee prosthesis with an established posterior-stabilized total knee prosthesis. Synovial fluid was obtained 1 year after knee arthroplasty from 17 patients with well-functioning prostheses (22 knees, 11 posterior-stabilized prostheses and...

PURPOSE Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can be an alternative method for treating distal femoral fractures in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results in patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent TKA with the Medial Pivot prosthesis for distal femoral fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight displaced ...
متن کاملDifferences between native and prosthetic knees in terms of cross-sectional morphology of the femoral trochlea: a study based on three-dimensional models and virtual total knee arthroplasty
BACKGROUND The cross-sectional morphology of the prosthetic knee is crucial to understanding patellar motion and quadriceps strength after total knee arthroplasty. However, few comparative evaluations of the cross-sectional morphology of the femoral trochlea have been performed in the native knee and currently available femoral implants, and the relationship between the trochlear anatomy of pro...
