Background
Accelerometer-based computer navigation has been shown to be highly accurate for performing distal femoral and proximal tibial component alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), although the procedure for the femoral component is less accurate than for the tibial component.Methods
First, 30 knees without hip osteoarthritis or proximal femoral surgeries were selected. Sequential hip adduction, abduction, and flexion were performed, and the femoral head was monitored fluoroscopically in the coronal plane before TKA. Significantly more movement was detected during hip adduction than during abduction and flexion. Then, postoperative femoral and tibial component alignment was retrospectively evaluated in 48 TKAs before fluoroscopic monitoring (early group) and in the next 61 TKAs with femoral registration using smaller adduction movements to avoid large femoral head movements (later group). Another 47 TKAs treated with the conventional intramedullary method for the distal femoral component and the extramedullary method for the proximal tibial component were also analyzed (IM and EM group) for historic control.Results
Significantly large variances in the femoral component implantation of the early group were detected in both the coronal and sagittal planes. The sagittal femoral implantation angle of the early group (4.6 ± 3.0°) was significantly larger than that of the later group (3.2 ± 1.8°) when 3.5° was the target for both groups. No significant difference was detected in the variances of either the coronal or sagittal tibial component implantation, although the coronal tibial implantation angle was significantly smaller (?1.3 ± 1.3°valgus) in the early group than in the other groups.Conclusion
Accelerometer-based navigation sometimes has technical issues during registration associated with hip adduction. We showed that femoral registration without large adduction movements will enable more accurate femoral implantation. Surgeons should also keep in mind that the coronal tibial component is likely to be in valgus alignment (about 1°) even if a neutral angle (0°) is selected with this particular device. 相似文献2.

Background
To determine whether computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is more suitable for the patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) systems for total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods
PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to June 2016 for prospective comparative trials that compared CT- versus MRI-based PSI systems for TKA. Our predefined primary outcome was the outliers incidence of coronal overall limb alignment.Results
Six studies with a total of 336 knees meeting the eligibility criteria, and four trials were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with MRI-based PSI systems, CT-based PSI systems were associated with a higher outliers incidence of coronal overall limb alignment (risk ratio: 1.67; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03–2.72; P = 0.04), more angular errors of coronal overall limb alignment (mean difference (MD): 1.01°; 95% CI: 0.47?1.56; P = 0.0003), and longer operation time (MD: 5.02 min; 95% CI: 1.26–8.79; P = 0.009). While no significant differences in the coronal/sagittal alignment of the femoral/tibial component outliers, the angular errors of coronal overall limb alignment, the angular errors of the femoral/tibial component in coronal plane, or incidence of change of implant size of the femoral/tibial component were observed.Conclusions
The current limited evidence suggests that MRI-based PSI systems exhibit higher accuracy for TKA regarding the coronal limb axis than CT-based PSI systems. However, well-designed studies comparing CT-versus MRI-based PSI systems for TKA are warrant to confirm these results before widespread use of this technique can be recommended. 相似文献3.
Accuracy and Precision of Acetabular Component Placement With Imageless Navigation in Obese Patients

Background
Obesity is a risk factor for acetabular component malposition when total hip arthroplasty is performed with manual techniques. The utility of imageless navigation in obese patients remains unknown. This study compared the accuracy and precision of imageless navigation for component orientation between obese and nonobese patients.Methods
A total of 459 total hip arthroplasties performed for osteoarthritis using imageless navigation were reviewed from a single surgeon’s institutional review board–approved database. Einzel-Bild-Roentgen Analyse determined component orientation on 6-week postoperative anteroposterior radiographs. Mean orientation error (accuracy) and precision were compared between obese (body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2) and nonobese patients. Regression analysis evaluated the influence of obesity on component position.Results
The difference in mean inclination and anteversion between obese and nonobese groups was 1.1° (43.0° ± 3.5°; range, 35.8°-57.8° vs 41.9° ± 4.4°; range, 33.0°-57.1° and 24.9° ± 6.3°; range, 14.2°-44.3° vs 23.8° ± 6.6°; range, 7.0°-38.6°, respectively). Inclination precision was better for nonobese patients. No difference in inclination accuracy or anteversion accuracy or precision was detected between groups. And 83% of components were placed within the target range. There was no relationship between obesity (dichotomized) and component placement outside the target ranges for inclination, anteversion, or both. As a continuous variable, increased body mass index correlated with higher odds of inclination outside the target zone (odds ratio, 1.06; P = .001).Conclusion
Using imageless navigation, inclination orientation was less precise for obese patients, but the observed difference is likely not clinically relevant. Accurate superficial registration of landmarks in obese patients is achievable, and the use of imageless navigation similarly improves acetabular component positioning in obese and nonobese patients.Level of Evidence

Background
In place of the mechanical axis (MA), the use of the variable tibiofemoral angle is frequently used to plan measured resection bony cuts during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This angle, coupled with operator-dependent variability of intramedullary distal femoral cutting guides, has the potential for catastrophic outcomes. Therefore, a simpler, fixed femoral cut of 6° valgus may be more appropriate when direct measurement of the MA is not possible.Methods
This was a retrospective study of 788 consecutive TKAs, in which the distal femoral cut was set to 6° valgus. The preoperative and 6-week postoperative MA were measured on hip-to-ankle radiographs. Data were evaluated as a group as well as grouped by preoperative deformity (MA < ?3°, ?3° < MA < 3°, 3° < MA).Results
Following TKA, MA alignment for all patients was 0.0° ± 2.3° (range, ?7.0° to 8.0°). When grouped by pre-TKA alignment, 548 patients were considered varus (MA < ?3°), 137 were neutral (?3° < MA < 3°), and 103 patients were valgus (3° < MA). When evaluating the post-TKA alignment achieved in the 3 groups, neutral alignment (?3° < MA < 3°) was established in 86.5% of varus patients, 86.1% of neutral patients, and 82.5% of valgus patients.Conclusion
A standard distal femoral cut of 6° resulted in a neutral MA in 86% of patients. While no single technique will be correct for all deformities, in the absence of sophisticated preoperative planning aids, this simple technique could provide a more reliable surgical technique than the measured tibiofemoral angle. 相似文献5.

Background
There is a paucity of reports on osteolysis associated with tibial screw fixation in cementless total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and the pathophysiology is not clear. This study aimed to describe the pathology related to screw track osteolysis around the tibia in cementless TKA.Methods
The study cohort comprised 100 revised cementless TKAs with tibial screw fixation. Screw track osteolysis and various screw angles were analyzed radiologically. Tissue samples from the joint capsule and the osteolytic cavity were investigated for metal/polyethylene wear. The type of tissue response was determined using immunohistochemistry. Retrieved tibial polyethylene inserts were analyzed for screw hole impression and mode of wear. Tissue metal content was measured by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Electrochemical reactions between the tibial tray and the cancellous screws were investigated.Results
Radiological analysis showed screw track osteolysis predominantly at the medial aspect of the tibial component, and the severity of osteolysis positively correlated with smaller medial proximal tibial screw angles. Osteolysis was associated with high titanium concentrations but not with polyethylene particles. An open circuit potential between the screw and the tibial base plate was measured. Necrosis, osteolytic cyst formation and macrophages, T and B cells, and dendritic cells were present.Conclusion
The present study highlights the risk for screw track osteolysis in cementless TKA with screw fixation. Our data collectively suggest that titanium wear may contribute to screw track osteolysis in the cementless TKA design. The contribution of screw angles is difficult to prove. 相似文献6.

Background
Achieving neutral limb alignment during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been identified as a potential factor in long-term prosthesis survival. This study aimed to analyze the accuracy of component orientation and postoperative alignment of the leg after computed tomography (CT)–based navigation-assisted TKA, compare these parameters with those of a conventional technique, and analyze differences in the data of outliers.Methods
We retrospectively compared the alignment of 130 TKAs performed with a CT-based navigation system with that of 67 arthroplasties done with a conventional system. The knee joints were evaluated using radiographs.Results
Mean hip–knee–ankle (HKA) angle, frontal femoral component angle, and frontal tibial component angle were 180.7°, 88.8°, and 90.6°, respectively, for the navigation-assisted arthroplasties and 181.1°, 88.7°, and 90.2°, respectively, for the conventional arthroplasties. All preoperative leg axes of 10 outliers in the navigation group were >193°, whereas the data of 17 outliers in the conventional group were scattered.Conclusion
This study demonstrates significant improvements in component positioning with the CT-based navigation system. Furthermore, when analyzing cases with preoperative HKA angles ≤192°, no outliers were found in the navigation group, indicating high alignment accuracy. However, in cases with preoperative HKA angles ≥193°, outliers were found in both groups, and no significant difference between the groups was observed (P = .08). Detailed analysis of the outlier cases in the navigation group revealed that the femoral component was placed in the varus position. These findings indicate that the varus knee is an important factor influencing accurate positioning of the femoral component and the postoperative leg axis. 相似文献7.

Introduction
The technical objective of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is to restore normal mechanical parameters to the knee. Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) was developed to streamline the operative process and improve accuracy. PSI produces individualized cutting guides based on three-dimensional models of the patient's anatomy acquired from computed-tomography (CT) or magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI). However, the superiority of one modality over the other remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to compare the accuracy of patient-specific cutting guides produced from MRI or CT imaging methods in TKA.Methods
Electronic databases were systematically searched using relevant keywords and MeSH terms for original-data English-language publications comparing the accuracy of CT and MRI-based PSI cutting guides in TKA. Data was extracted from the text, tables and figures of studies and meta-analysed.Results
MRI-based PSI cutting guides produced a lower proportion of coronal plane outliers (>3°) with regard to overall limb mechanical axis (OR 2.75, p = 0.01). There were no significant differences between the two in terms of sagittal femoral and tibial component placement, or coronal femoral and tibial placement, or femoral component axial rotation. Tibial rotation was not analysed in the literature.Conclusions
MRI-based patient-specific cutting guides produced a lower proportion of outliers in the overall coronal alignment of the limb compared to CT, with no significant difference between the two in terms of femoral or tibial component placement. Future studies should investigate the differences in resource usage and operative time between the two to inform surgeons' decision making when choosing an ideal imaging modality for PSI TKA.Study design

Background
Physiological tibiofemoral kinematics have been shown to be important for good knee function after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of component rotation on tibiofemoral kinematics during knee flexion. We asked which axial component alignment best reconstructs physiological tibiofemoral kinematics and which combinations should be avoided.Methods
Ten healthy cadaveric knees were examined. By means of a navigational device, tibiofemoral kinematics between 0° and 90° of flexion were assessed before and after TKA using the following different rotational component alignment: femoral components: ligament balanced, 6° internal, 3° external rotation, and 6° external rotation in relation to the posterior condylar line; tibial components: self-adapted, 6° internal rotation, and 6° external rotation.Results
Physiological tibiofemoral kinematics could be partly reconstructed by TKA. Ligament-balanced femoral rotation and 6° femoral external rotation both in combination with 6° tibial component external rotation, and 3° femoral external rotation in combination with 6° tibial component internal rotation or self-aligning tibial component were able to restore tibial longitudinal rotation. Largest kinematical differences were found for the combination femoral component internal and tibial component external rotations.Conclusion
From a kinematic-based view, surgeons should avoid internal rotation of femoral components. However, even often recommended combinations of rotational component alignment (3° femoral external and tibial external rotation) significantly change tibiofemoral kinematics. Self-aligning tibial components solely restored tibiofemoral kinematics with the combination of 3° femoral component of external rotation. For the future, navigational devices might help to axially align components to restore patient-specific and natural tibiofemoral kinematics. 相似文献9.

Background
Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (KTS) is a severe vascular malformation that can lead to hypertrophic osteoarthritis. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) performed in extremities affected with KTS is challenging given the high-risk vascular considerations and occasionally poor bone quality.Methods
We identified 12 patients with KTS who underwent TKA between 1998 and 2017. There were 7 men, mean age 42 years, and mean follow-up was 7 years. Before arthroplasty, 2 patients (17%) had preoperative sclerotherapy. Preoperative vascular studies were done for 9 patients (75%) and included magnetic resonance imaging (n = 7), magnetic resonance angiography (n = 1), and computed tomography angiography (n = 1). A preoperative blood conservation protocol was used for all operations and included the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in later years. Posterior-stabilized TKA was used in 10 cases and cruciate-retaining TKA was used in 2 cases.Results
At final follow-up, 2 patients (17%) had undergone revision surgery: 1 for infection and 1 for tibial loosening with subsequent arthrofibrosis. Knee Society Scores (36-83, P < .0001) and functional scores (48-84, P = .0007) significantly increased between the preoperative and postoperative period. Likewise at last follow-up, the mean knee range of motion significantly increased (82°-104°, P = .04). Median blood loss for patients who received TXA was 200 mL compared to 275 mL in patients who did not receive TXA (P = .66). Likewise there was no difference (P = .5) in the proportion of patients who required a transfusion between those who received TXA (2/6, 33%) and those who did not (3/6, 50%).Conclusion
In this small series, TKA can lead to significant clinical improvement for patients with KTS. Modern blood management techniques and a careful multidisciplinary care approach render TKA a reasonable option for select patients with KTS.Level of Evidence

Background
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA), aiming at neutral mechanical alignment (MA), inevitably modifies the patient's native knee anatomy. Another option is kinematic alignment (KA), which aims to restore the original anatomy of the knee. The aim of this study was to evaluate the variations in lower limb anatomy of a patient population scheduled for TKA, and to assess the use of a restricted KA TKA protocol and compare the resulting anatomic modifications with the standard MA technique.Methods
A total of 4884 knee computed tomography scans were analyzed from a database of patients undergoing TKA with patient-specific instrumentation. The lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) were measured. Bone resections were compared using a standard MA and a restricted KA aiming for independent tibial and femoral cuts of maximum ±5° deviation from the coronal mechanical axis and a resulting overall coronal HKA within ±3° of neutral.Results
The mean preoperative MPTA was 2.9° varus, LDFA was 2.7° valgus, and overall HKA was 0.1° varus. Using our protocol, 2475 knees (51%) could have undergone KA without adjustment. To include 4062 cases (83%), mean corrections of 0.5° for MPTA and 0.3° for LDFA were needed, significantly less than with MA (3.3° for MPTA and 3.2° for LDFA; P < .001).Conclusion
The range of knee anatomy in patients scheduled for TKA is wide. MA leads to greater modifications of knee joint anatomy. To avoid reproducing extreme anatomy, the proposed restricted KA protocol provides an interesting hybrid option between MA and true KA. 相似文献11.

Background
Accelerometer-based, portable navigation devices have been introduced as a less invasive and simpler technique to perform navigated surgical implantation of knee prostheses. They have been postulated to have better accuracy than conventional instruments in restoration of alignment in total knee arthroplasty.Methods
A total of 190 patients were enrolled in this prospective, randomized controlled trial and underwent total knee arthroplasty using either the KneeAlign or conventional guides. Multiplanar alignment was evaluated with a CT imaging protocol.Results
A total of 86.5% of portable navigation device and 82.2% of conventional group had a postoperative hip–knee angle within 3° of neutral alignment (P = .54). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups for component coronal and sagittal plane alignment. Portable navigation device did not significantly increase the time to perform the surgery.Conclusion
Portable navigation device demonstrates accurate restoration of alignment; however, there was no statistically significant difference when compared with conventional guides. 相似文献12.

Background
Whether anterior referencing (AR) or posterior referencing (PR) produces a more balanced flexion gap in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using measured resection remains controversial. Our goal was to compare AR and PR in terms of (1) medial and lateral gaps at full extension and 90° of flexion, and (2) maximum medial and lateral collateral ligament (MCL and LCL) forces in flexion.Methods
Computational models of 6 knees implanted with posterior-stabilized TKA were virtually positioned with both AR and PR techniques. The ligament properties were standardized to achieve a balanced knee at full extension. Medial-lateral gaps were measured in response to varus and valgus loading at full extension and 90° of flexion; MCL and LCL forces were estimated during passive flexion.Results
At full extension, the maximum difference in the medial-lateral gap for both AR and PR was <1 mm in all 6 knee models. However, in flexion, only 3 AR and 3 PR models produced a difference in medial-lateral gap <2 mm. During passive flexion, the maximum MCL force ranged from 2 N to 87 N in AR and from 17 N to 127 N in PR models. The LCL was unloaded at >25° of flexion in all models.Conclusion
In measured resection TKA, neither AR nor PR better balance the ligaments and produce symmetrical gaps in flexion. Alternative bone resection techniques and rotation alignment targets are needed to achieve more predictable knee balance. 相似文献13.

Background
Preoperative varus deformity of the knee is a common malalignment in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We are unaware of any studies that have correlated how various preoperative radiographic parameters can predict the amount of medial releases performed to achieve optimal coronal alignment and ligamentous balance.Methods
A retrospective review was performed on 67 patients who required at least a medial tibial reduction osteotomy (MTRO) during primary TKA to achieve coronal balance. This patient population was matched 1:1 to another cohort of TKA patients by age, gender, and body mass index who did not require an MTRO. A radiographic evaluation was used to compare the 2 cohorts.Results
Preoperatively, the MTRO cohort was noted to have significantly increased varus tibiofemoral (86.12° vs 93.43°), tibial articular surface (85.79° vs 87.54°), and medial tibial articular surface angles (75.22° vs 85.34°) compared to the control cohort. The MTRO cohort had 3.13 mm of medial tibial offset and 9.06 mm of lateral joint space opening and the control cohort had 0.09 mm and 4.07 mm, respectively. The medial tibial articular surface angle and lateral joint space widening were statistically associated with the MTRO cohort. The final tibiofemoral angle in the MTRO cohort was 92.43° and was 93.40° in the control cohort.Conclusion
The MTRO cohort was noted to have several preoperative radiographic parameters that were significantly different than the control cohort. However, the medial tibial articular surface angle and lateral joint space widening were the only radiographic parameters that were statistically associated with requiring an MTRO. 相似文献14.

Background
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has perceived advantages in the early postoperative stage for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It is not clear whether the improved radiographic alignment achieved by computer-assisted navigation surgery (CAS) improves midterm clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to compare patient outcomes of MIS TKA performed with and without CAS after a minimum follow-up of 7 years.Methods
Between 2007 and 2009, 50 patients underwent CAS and MIS TKA, and 50 patients underwent jig-based MIS TKA in this prospective study. Ninety-six patients were evaluated after a mean follow-up of 7.7 years, and clinical and radiological evaluations were performed.Results
Midterm results demonstrated that the Knee Society knee score, function score, and range of motion were comparable in the 2 groups. The percentage of patients with the mechanical axis within ±3° of neutral was significantly higher in the CAS group than in the jig-based group (94% vs 79%, respectively; P = .038). No knees had loosening after TKA. However, 1 patient in the CAS group demonstrated late infection 4 years postoperatively.Conclusion
CAS did not improve midterm outcomes after MIS TKA compared with jig-based surgery, although CAS reduced outliers in coronal alignment. 相似文献15.

Background
In comparison to coronal, sagittal, and rotational alignment, translational alignment parameters have been widely neglected in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) so far. As there is a certain variable range of possible component placement in mediolateral, ventrodorsal, and proximodistal direction, we hypothesized that relative positions between the femoral and tibial bones are changed after TKA, resulting in a subluxation of knees.Methods
In 10 knees of Thiel-embalmed whole body cadavers, the relative position between the femur and the tibia during passive flexion was measured before and after TKA by means of a navigational device.Results
After TKA, in extension, femoral bones in average shifted 5.3 mm (standard deviation [SD] = 4.0, P = .002) laterally and 2.4 mm (SD = 3.1, P = .038) proximally in extension which, however, decreased throughout flexion. Furthermore, the ventrodorsal femoral position was altered, resulting in a slight relative dorsal shift (2.6 mm, SD = 4.5, P = .099) in extension, which continuously changed into a ventral shift (2.6 mm, SD = 4.3, P = .087) during flexion.Conclusion
The present investigation reveals changed translational parameters between the tibia and the femur after TKA. The resulting subluxation of the knee may be responsible for changed kinematic patterns. These changes in tibofemoral position should be considered in future biomechanical studies. Main reasons for this effect might be a noncentral placement of tibial and femoral implants in relation to the proximal tibial and distal femoral anatomy, obscured intraoperative articular geometry, symmetric implants, and operative techniques. Smaller steps between different component sizes, asymmetric tibial implant design, or individual (anatomic) implants could help to minimize subluxation in TKA. 相似文献16.

Study Design
Cross-sectional study.Purpose of the Study
The study aims to determine the effects of force direction and arm position in differentiating the clavicular (PMc) and sternal (PMs) parts of the pectoralis major (PM) muscle during maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) to provide basic evidence to support the clinical thinking behind muscle strength testing of PM.Methods
Nine experimental conditions with 3 force directions of horizontal adduction (+30° oblique, horizontal, and ?30° oblique to the transverse plane) and 3 arm rotation positions (0°, 45°, and 90° shoulder external rotation from the transverse plane) were randomly tested for 26 healthy male participants. The MVIC force level was monitored and measured with a fixed dynamometer, and the surface electromyographic (EMG) signals of the PMc, PMs, anterior deltoid, middle deltoid, and latissimus dorsi were collected during the test for each condition. The PMc/PMs EMG ratio and normalized EMG amplitude were used to quantify the contribution of the tested muscles.Results
The MVIC force level significantly declined when the arm's external rotation increased (P < .01; the grand mean decreased from 106.7 N ± 27.8 N to 89.5 N ± 22.6 N). The PMc/PMs EMG ratio showed that the best test condition to differentiate the PMc and PMs was the force direction of +30° oblique to the transverse plane and the 45° arm rotation position. Other muscles contributed less than 40% of their MVIC activity levels, with a higher activation level found in the anterior deltoid muscle (P < .01).Conclusions
Arm rotation position should be considered as a predominant factor when clinically examining the strength of horizontal adduction movement. All tested conditions failed to fully separate PMc and PMs activation during MVIC and suggested that functional differentiation of the PM might not be applicable to maximal exertion.Level of Evidence

Study Design
A within-subject research design was used in this study. The difference of the range of motion (ROM) with and without ulnar nerve block was analyzed.Introduction
For the clinical evaluation of the functional effects of ulnar nerve palsy at the hand the relevance of clinical tests is in discussion.Purpose of the Study
The aim of the study was to evaluate the predictive value of 2 clinical tests for a simulated ulnar nerve lesion by motion analysis with a sensor glove.Methods
In 28 healthy subjects, dynamic measurements of the finger joints were performed by a sensor glove with and without ulnar nerve block at the wrist. In the 0° metacarpophalangeal (MCP) stabilization test, the subjects were asked to stabilize the MCP joints actively in 0° while moving the interphalangeal joints, whereas at the 90° MCP stabilization test, the subjects stabilized the MCP joints actively in the 90° position.Results
In the 0° MCP stabilization test, no remarkable changes of the ROM were found at the MCP joints; at the proximal interphalangeal joints 2-5, the ROM decreased with ulnar nerve block, significantly at the index, middle, and ring fingers (P < .05). In the 90° MCP stabilization test, the average ROM of the MCP joints 2-5 significantly increased with ulnar nerve block (P < .05), whereas at the PIP joints, the average ROM decreased (P < .05).Discussion
The 90° MCP stabilization test had a high predictive value for the discrimination between healthy subjects and subjects with a simulated peripheral ulnar nerve lesion.Conclusions
The results could be relevant for the determination of the functional effect of ulnar nerve palsy and the quantification of clawing in hand rehabilitation.Level of Evidence

Background
The objective of the study was to compare the patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) of patients with post-traumatic arthritis (PTA) versus patients with osteoarthritis (OA) undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and compare the rates of revision among these two groups.Methods
Using a prospectively held institutional registry, we retrospectively reviewed patients ≥60 years of age who underwent unilateral TKA between May 2007 and February 2012. Patients with previous or concomitant diagnosis of inflammatory arthropathy or an initial open fracture were excluded. PTA patients were matched 1:5 with OA patients undergoing TKA. Validated PROMs were recorded at baseline before index TKA and the last follow-up. Reason and time to revision surgery was reported, and survivorship was compared using Kaplan-Meier curves.Results
Seventy-five PTA patients were matched to 375 OA patients. There was no difference between these groups with respect to age (67.7 ± 5.6 vs 67.8 ± 5.5 years; P = .876), body mass index (28.6 ± 5.4 vs 28.7 ± 5.3 kg/m2; P = .948), sex (65.3% vs 65.3% females; P = .999), Charlson Comorbidity Index (21.3% vs 21.3% Index 1-2, P = .999), and time to follow-up (93.0 ± 13.4 vs 88.2 ± 13.7 months; P = .999). No statistically significant difference was found in PROMs at baseline and the last follow-up (P > .05), the rate or time to revision surgery between the two groups (P-value = .635; log-rank test).Conclusion
Unlike previous studies, TKA for PTA does not pose lower PROMs or higher revision rates when compared to TKA for OA. These results could help provide surgeons with a frame of reference in terms of expectations for patients with PTA undergoing TKA. 相似文献19.

Background
Although Medicaid expansion has improved access to primary care services, its impact on surgical specialty utilization remains unclear. The aim of this study is to determine whether Medicaid expansion is associated with increased utilization rates of total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in Illinois (which expanded Medicaid) relative to Missouri (which did not expand Medicaid).Methods
Using administrative data sources, we analyzed 374,877 total hospitalizations (236,333 in Illinois and 138,544 in Missouri) for THA/TKA from 2011 to 2016 (Illinois’ Medicaid expansion date: January 1, 2014).Results
The percentage of THA/TKA funded by Medicaid in Illinois was 2.4% in 2013 and 3.9% in 2016 (Missouri 2013: 2.7%; 2016: 2.6%). A difference-in-difference analysis (adjusted for patient age and gender, county-level Area Deprivation Index, and number of orthopedic surgeons) demonstrated a statistically significant increase in Medicaid-funded THA/TKA in Illinois in 2016 compared to 2013 (P = .012).Conclusion
Our study demonstrates that Medicaid expansion in Illinois was associated with increased utilization of THA and TKA. Further study is needed to understand the impact of Medicaid expansion in other states and for other procedures. 相似文献20.
