Functional outcome of posterior cruciate ligament substituted total knee arthroplasty

Background and Aim: Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is now most reliable treatment for severe arthritis. However, there a need of study to accurately assess analyze the approach surgeon towards PCL measure its outcome. We aimed clinical functional outcome following posterior cruciate ligament substituted total knee arthroplasty.Material Methods: Present research was carried out at Department Orthopedics, Tertiary Care Institute India where 50 patients were operated, 78 replacements done on duration two years. All assessed clinically functionally using Oxford score. The preoperative medical evaluations all evaluate any potential complications that can be life-threatening or limb-threatening.Results: Most in have excellent 72% followed by good results 14% after treatment. Out 6 patient had post op suprapatellar fullness, which relieved with medications 3 weeks without no signs immediate post-operative period, developed infection months underwent staged revision replacement.Conclusion: Post operatively, pain free joint movements correction deformity. In advanced osteoarthritis, gross varus deformity, fixed flexion deformity sacrificing replacement will give greater mobility function.
