Arthroscopic lysis of adhesions for the stiff total knee arthroplasty.
The management of the stiff knee after total knee arthroplasty is controversial. Manipulation under anesthesia and open lysis of adhesions are techniques that can theoretically address the fibrous scar tissue, but their efficacy has been shown to be variable. We describe the technique of arthroscopic lysis of adhesions for the stiff knee after total knee arthroplasty. The advantages of this tec...
متن کاملA modified Thompson quadricepsplasty for the stiff knee.
Between March 1987 and March 1997, we performed a modified Thompson quadricepsplasty on 20 stiff knees and followed the patients for a mean of 35 months (24 to 52). After the operation, the knee was immobilised in flexion and periodically extended. At the final follow-up, the mean active flexion was 113.5 degrees (75 to 150). The final mean gain in movement was 67.6 degrees (5 to 105). One pati...
متن کاملArthroscopic lysis of adhesions for stiff total knee arthroplasty.
The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic lysis of adhesions after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in improving range of motion (ROM) and providing an improvement in knee function. The authors retrospectively examined 19 patients who underwent arthroscopic lysis of adhesions following TKA due to poor ROM. The criterion for lysis was the inability to flex to 90° at 3 mont...
متن کاملImportance of preswing rectus femoris activity in stiff-knee gait.
Stiff-knee gait is characterized by diminished and delayed knee flexion during swing. Rectus femoris transfer surgery, a common treatment for stiff-knee gait, is often recommended when a patient exhibits prolonged activity of the rectus femoris muscle during swing. Treatment outcomes are inconsistent, in part, due to limited understanding of the biomechanical factors contributing to stiff-knee ...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of advanced, stiff neurologic cavovarus foot in adults.
BACKGROUND Cavovarus foot is a complex, three-dimensional deformity of neuromuscular origin. A rigid cavovarus deformity causes difficulty in walking, instability, fatigue fractures, calluses and trophic ulcers in the overloaded lateral part of the foot and requires wearing orthopaedic shoes. The aim of the study was to evaluate current surgical techniques in the treatment of rigid cavovarus fo...
