Different References for Valgus Cut Angle in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Background: The valgus cut angle (VCA) of the distal femur in Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is measured preoperativelyon three-joint alignment radiographs. The anatomical axis of the femur can be described as the anatomical axis of thefull length of the femur or as the anatomical axis of the distal half of the femur, which may result in different anglesin some cases. During TKA, the anatomical ...

Distal Femoral Valgus Cut Errors in Total Knee Replacement

The causes of malalignment in total knee arthroplasty can be categorized into three different groups; 1) Errors in bone cuts 2) Errors in implant fixations, and 3) The method of setting down the cutting guides (1). We would like to announce that more several distal femoral valgus cut errors may occur during total knee replacement.

Radiologic Assessment of Distal Femur Cutting Angle in Varus Knee Candidates for Total Knee Arthroplasty

Background: In a total knee arthroplasty surgery the goal is to produce 90 degree angle between the knee articular lobe and the mechanical femoral line. Most orthopedic surgeons usually utilize a 5 to 7 degree for distal femoral cutting angle. In this study we will aim at clearing this question, that whether the” five-seven degree” distal femoral cutting angle supposed to be an equable spectrum...

Total knee arthroplasty for severe valgus knee deformity.

BACKGROUND Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in severe valgus knees may prove challenging, and choice of implant depends on the severity of the valgus deformity and the extent of soft-tissue release. The purpose of this study was to review 8 to 11 years (mean, 10 years) follow-up results of primary TKA for varient-III valgus knee deformity with use of different type implants. METHODS Betw...

Primary total knee arthroplasty in severe valgus knee

AIM Outcome of primary total arthroplasty for osteoarthritis of the knee with valgus deformity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 2005 and 2007, 28 primary total knee replacements were performed for osteoarthritis of the knee with valgus deformity. 21 cases were women and 7 men with a mean age of 66.6 years (extremes 54-81). The clinical and radiological evaluations were done considering the knee...

Severe varus and valgus deformities treated by total knee arthroplasty.

We report a prospective case-controlled study which compared the outcome of knee replacement in seriously deformed and slightly deformed knees. There were 51 knees with varus or valgus deformity greater than 20 degrees matched for age, gender, disease, type of prosthesis and time of operation with a control group in which the alignment of the leg was within 5 degrees of normal. The clinical out...
