Comparing cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty and cruciate-substituting total knee arthroplasty: a prospective clinical study.
BACKGROUND This prospective clinical study was performed to compare the clinical outcomes and radiographic changes between patients with cruciate-retaining (CR) and cruciate-substituting (CS) total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS From 1997 through 1998, 228 patients (183 females and 45 males) with a total of 267 knees with an average age of 55 years (range, 20 to 83 years) were enrolled in t...
متن کاملPosterior Tibial Polyethylene Fracture in Cruciate-Retaining Total Knee Arthroplasty
Introduction One of the common prostheses for primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a cruciate-retaining (CR) design. The tibial polyethylene inserts commonly used in TKA are made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). The CR TKA design retains the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), which is believed to provide increased stability, promote femoral roll back, improve propriocep...
متن کاملIn vitro investigation of knee joint kinematics following cruciate retaining versus cruciate sacrificing total knee arthroplasty.
The aim of this biomechanical study was to investigate knee joint kinematics following total knee arthroplasty. We compared eight congruent posterior cruciate ligament retaining and four ultracongruent cruciate sacrificing Natural Knee prostheses to the untreated human cadaveric knee joint. A six-degree-of-freedom testing device was used to evaluate knee joint kinematics with a load of 300 Newt...
متن کاملSoft Tissue Balance in Total Knee Arthroplasty
The primary goal of total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) is the achievement of stable tibiofemoral and patellofemoral (PF) joints, which relies on accurately aligning these joint components and balancing the soft tissues. In order to achieve these criteria, it is important to utilize appropriate surgical techniques and well-designed implants [1-3]. To this end, using the more traditional intraand e...
متن کاملSoft tissue balancing in total knee arthroplasty.
A good outcome in total knee arthroplasty depends on many factors: joint alignment, range of motion, patellar tracking and ligament stability. A correct soft tissue balance keeps the joint aligned in flexion and extension, and therefore constitutes the most important factor for durability of the implant. Indeed, incorrect soft tissue balancing is the primary cause of early implant failure neces...
