Increased conformity at the tibiofemoral articulation increases contact area and reduces contact stresses in total knee arthroplasty. Malalignment, however, can increase polyethylene contact stresses. The effect of knee alignment and articular conformity on contact stresses was evaluated in a finite element model. The polyethylene insert and femoral component were modeled in high- and low-conformity conditions. An axial tibial load of 3000 N was applied across the tibiofemoral articulation at different knee positions ranging from 0 degrees, to 90 degrees, flexion, 0 to 10 mm anteroposterior translation, 0 degrees to 10 degrees axial rotation, and coronal plane angulation (liftoff). Increased conformity significantly reduced contact stresses in neutral alignment (by 44% at 0 degrees flexion and 36% at 60 degrees and 90 degrees flexion). Liftoff significantly increased contact stresses in low- and high-conformity conditions, but to a lesser degree in the high-conformity condition. Malalignment in rotation was most detrimental especially with the high-conformity insert design. Overall, increasing articular conformity reduced stresses when the knee was well-aligned. However, malalignment in axial rotation was detrimental. Mobile-bearing knee designs with increased articular congruity may result in lower contact stresses, especially the rotating-bearing designs that theoretically minimize rotational malalignment. 相似文献

The current study aimed to analyze kinematics during deep knee bending motion by subjects with fully congruent mobile-bearing total knee arthroplasties allowing axial rotation and anteroposterior (AP) gliding. Twelve subjects were implanted with Dual Bearing Knee prostheses (DBK, slot type: Finsbury Orthopaedics, Surrey, UK). These implants include a mobile-bearing insert that is fully congruent with the femoral component throughout flexion and allows axial rotation and limited AP translation. Sequential fluoroscopic images were taken in the sagittal plane during loaded knee bending motion. In vivo kinematics were analyzed using a two- to three-dimensional registration technique, which uses computer-assisted design models to reproduce the spatial position of femoral and tibial components from single-view fluoroscopic images. The average femoral component demonstrated 13.4 degrees external axial rotation for 0-120 degrees flexion. On average, the medial condyle moved anteriorly 6.2 mm for 0-100 degrees flexion, then posteriorly 4.0 mm for 100-120 degrees flexion. On average, the lateral condyle moved anteriorly 1.0 mm for 0-40 degrees flexion, then posteriorly 8.7 mm for 40-120 degrees flexion. The typical subject exhibited a lateral pivot pattern from extension to 60 degrees flexion and a central pivot pattern from 60 degrees to 100 degrees flexion, patterns that are not usually observed in normal knees. Subsequently from 100 degrees to 120 degrees flexion, a rollback pattern was reproduced in which bilateral condyles moved backward. 相似文献

Tibial axis and patellar position relative to the femoral epicondylar axis during squatting 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A laboratory-based study was performed to describe the tibial axis and patellar position relative to the femoral epicondylar (FE) axis during squatting. During the squat, the angle between the tibial and FE axes averaged 90.5 degrees, and 66% of internal rotation of the tibia occurred before 15 degrees flexion. In the mid-sagittal plane of the femur, the patella followed a circular arc, and mediolateral patellar shift averaged 4.3 mm. These findings can be used as the basis for development of new total knee arthroplasty components that recreate normal patellofemoral kinematics, and may provide important guidelines for alignment of the tibial and femoral components. The perpendicular relationship between the tibial and the FE axes may be useful in locating the FE axis intraoperatively. The reduced mediolateral shift of the patella suggests that alignment of the femoral component with the FE axis will aid patellar tracking about a circular arc with small deviations in the medial-lateral direction. 相似文献

Recent surgical procedures designed to correct recurrent posttraumatic lateral patellar instability focus on reconstructing the medial patellofemoral ligament. This study evaluated and compared patellofemoral kinematics of isometric and anatomic medial patellofemoral ligament reconstructions. Using an infrared motion capture analysis system, patellar tracking was evaluated in the coronal plane in 6 cadaveric specimens. Reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament using an isometric technique did not restore normal patellar tracking at any flexion angle; however, reconstruction using an anatomic technique restored statistically normal patellar tracking from maximal knee extension to 28 degrees of flexion. Neither technique was able to restore normal kinematics in deeper angles of knee flexion. 相似文献

The contact stress produced in the tibiofemoral joint from a varus-tilted tibial component was tested in five total knee prostheses. Peak and mean stresses were measured with a digital electronic sensor under compressive load at 15 degrees and 90 degrees flexion. Stresses were measured with the tibial component tilted 0 degrees and 5 degrees in the mediolateral direction. At a 5 degree tilt, the Advantim, the Miller-Galante II, and the Omnifit prostheses, which have a flat configuration on the femoral and tibial surfaces in the coronal plane, had significantly greater stresses than the LCS and the Profix prostheses, which have tibial and femoral components with matching curved surfaces in the coronal plane. These results suggest that the femoral component surface should have a radius of curvature that matches that of the tibial articular surface in the coronal plane to achieve a large contact area even in varus-valgus tilting. 相似文献

The rotational alignment of the tibia is an unresolved issue in knee replacement. A poor functional outcome may be due to malrotation of the tibial component. Our aim was to find a reliable method for positioning the tibial component in knee replacement. CT scans of 19 knees were reconstructed in three dimensions and orientated vertically. An axial plane was identified 20 mm below the tibial spines. The centre of each tibial condyle was calculated from ten points taken round the condylar cortex. The tibial tubercle centre was also generated as the centre of the circle which best fitted eight points on the outside of the tubercle in an axial plane at the level of its most prominent point. The derived points were identified by three observers with errors of 0.6 mm to 1 mm. The medial and lateral tibial centres were constant features (radius 24 mm (SD 3), and 22 mm (SD 3), respectively). An anatomical axis was created perpendicular to the line joining these two points. The tubercle centre was found to be 20 mm (SD 7) lateral to the centre of the medial tibial condyle. Compared with this axis, an axis perpendicular to the posterior condylar axis was internally rotated by 6 degrees (SD 3). An axis based on the tibial tubercle and the tibial spines was also internally rotated by 5 degrees (sd 10). Alignment of the knee when based on this anatomical axis was more reliable than either the posterior surfaces or any axis involving the tubercle which was the least reliable landmark in the region. 相似文献

The influence of posterior condylar offset on knee flexion after total knee replacement using a cruciate-sacrificing mobile-bearing implant 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have studied the concept of posterior condylar offset and the importance of its restoration on the maximum range of knee flexion after posterior-cruciate-ligament-retaining total knee replacement (TKR). We measured the difference in the posterior condylar offset before and one year after operation in 69 patients who had undergone a primary cruciate-sacrificing mobile bearing TKR by one surgeon using the same implant and a standardised operating technique. In all the patients true pre- and post-operative lateral radiographs had been taken. The mean pre- and post-operative posterior condylar offset was 25.9 mm (21 to 35) and 26.9 mm (21 to 34), respectively. The mean difference in posterior condylar offset was + 1 mm (-6 to +5). The mean pre-operative knee flexion was 111 degrees (62 degrees to 146 degrees) and at one year postoperatively, it was 107 degrees (51 degrees to 137 degrees). There was no statistical correlation between the change in knee flexion and the difference in the posterior condylar offset after TKR (Pearson correlation coefficient r = -0.06, p = 0.69). 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the in vivo kinematics for subjects having either a fixed posterior stabilized (PS) or cruciate retaining (CR) high-flexion total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Three-dimensional kinematics from full extension to maximum flexion were determined for 30 subjects (15 PS, 15 CR) using fluoroscopy. On average, the PS subjects demonstrated 112 degrees of weight-bearing (WB) flexion, -6.4 mm of posterior femoral rollback, and 2.9 degrees of axial rotation. The CR subjects averaged 117 degrees of WB flexion, -4.9 mm of posterior femoral rollback, and 4.8 degrees of axial rotation. Posterior femoral rollback of the lateral condyle occurred for all PS TKAs and in 93% of the CR TKAs. Only 2 subjects in each group experienced greater than 1.0 mm of condylar lift-off. Subjects in both TKA groups demonstrated excellent WB ranges of motion and kinematic patterns similar to the normal knee, but less in magnitude. 相似文献

Total knee arthroplasty does not restore the full range of motion of the knee. Retrospective clinical studies on knee kinematics suffer from multiple biases because the various parameters involved, that is, the posterior condylar offset, the tibial slope, and the condylar roll-back, are not individualized. The present study, based on the geometry of knee flexion, shows that a 3-mm decrease of the posterior condylar offset could reduce knee flexion by 10 degrees before the occurrence of tibiofemoral impingement. In addition, the simultaneous decrease of the tibial slope by 5 degrees could reduce the flexion by a further 5 degrees. These effects could be reinforced if the paradoxical condylar roll-forward was made to exceed 10 mm. Finally, decreasing the condylar offset in a prosthesis with a paradoxical roll-forward and a neutral tibial slope could reduce maximum obtainable knee flexion before impingement by as much as 30 degrees. 相似文献

Patellar tracking and femoral condylar geometry in deep knee flexion were evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging. The patellar tilting angle, patellar shift, and patellar anteroposterior translation from 0 degrees to 135 degrees flexion were measured. The depth of the femoral condylar articular surface and the curvature of the femoral condylar articular surface also were measured at 135 degrees flexion. The patella shifted laterally, tilted medially, and sank deeply into the intercondylar notch during deep knee flexion. The articular surface of the lateral condyle, existing deep within the intercondylar notch, began to curve steeply at a point farther from the center of the intercondylar notch than did the medial condyle. The geometry of the femoral condyle is adequate to fit the patellar geometry. Results of the current study suggest that the geometry of the lateral femoral condyle allows the patella to track smoothly with a larger patellofemoral contact area and less patellofemoral pressure during deep flexion. 相似文献

In vivo three-dimensional knee kinematics using a biplanar image-matching technique. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

A biplanar image-matching technique was developed and applied to a study of normal knee kinematics in vivo under weightbearing conditions. Three-dimensional knee models of six volunteers were constructed using computed tomography. Projection images of the models were fitted onto anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the knees at hyperextension and every 15 degrees from 0 degrees to 120 degrees flexion. Knee motion was reconstructed on the computer. The femur showed a medial pivoting motion relative to the tibia during knee flexion, and the average range of external rotation associated with flexion was 29.1 degrees . The center of the medial femoral condyle translated 3.8 mm anteriorly, whereas the center of the lateral femoral condyle translated 17.8 mm posteriorly. This rotational motion, with a medially offset center, could be interpreted as a screw home motion of the knee around the tibial knee axis and a posterior femoral rollback in the sagittal plane. However, the motion of the contact point differed from that of the center of the femoral condyle when the knee flexion angle was less than 30 degrees. Within this range, medial and lateral contact points translated posteriorly, and a posterior femoral rollback occurred. This biplanar image-matching technique is useful for investigating knee kinematics in vivo. 相似文献

BackgroundPosterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with gradually variable radii (G-curve) femoral condylar geometry is now available. It is believed that a G-curve design would lead to more mid-flexion stability leading to reduced incidence of paradoxical anterior slide. The objective of this study was to assess the in vivo kinematics for subjects implanted with this type of TKA under various conditions of daily living.MethodsTibiofemoral kinematics of 35 patients having posterior-stabilized TKA with G-curve design were analyzed using fluoroscopy while performing three activities: weight-bearing deep knee bend, gait, and walking down a ramp. The subjects were assessed for range of motion, condylar translation, axial rotation, cam-spine engagement, and condylar lift-off.ResultsThe average weight-bearing flexion during deep knee bend was 111.4°. On average, the subjects exhibited 5.4 mm of posterior rollback of the lateral condyle and 2.0 mm of the medial condyle from full extension to maximum knee flexion. The femur consistently rotated externally with flexion, and the average axial rotation was 5.2°. Overall movement of the condyles during gait and ramp-down activity was small. No incidence of condylar lift-off was observed.ConclusionSubjects in this study experienced consistent magnitudes of posterior femoral rollback and external rotation of the femur with weight-bearing flexion. The variation is similar to that previously reported for normal knee where the lateral condyle moves consistently posterior compared to the medial condyle. Subjects experienced low overall mid-flexion paradoxical anterior sliding and no incidence of condylar lift-off leading to mid-flexion stability. 相似文献

This study aimed to determine the accuracy and reliability of visual estimation of limb alignment and knee flexion by orthopaedic surgeons when compared to recordings done by computed navigation. Orthopaedic surgeons attending a national conference were asked to place a lower limb synthetic bone model in 6 positions of the knee in the coronal and sagittal planes. These were simultaneously quantified and recorded by a computer navigation system. In the sagittal plane, 44%, 54% and 60% of the surgeons deviated by more than 5 degrees when positioning the knee in 0 degrees flexion, 10 degrees flexion and 90 degrees flexion respectively. In the coronal plane, 15%, 12% and 8% of the surgeons deviated by more than 5 degrees when positioning the knee in 0 degrees varus/valgus, 5 degrees varus and 5 degrees valgus respectively. Only 25% of the surgeons could position the knee both within 3 degrees of neutral varus/valgus and within 5 degrees of neutral flexion. Accuracy of visual estimation was not different when surgeons were compared based on time since residency, experience with TKA and experience with computer-assisted TKA. Visual estimation of knee alignment in both the sagittal and coronal plane is prone to error and may lead to inaccurate limb alignment during procedures such as TKA. 相似文献

Femoral condylar lift-off in vivo in total knee arthroplasty 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We carried out weight-bearing video radiological studies on 40 patients with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA), to determine the presence and magnitude of femoral condylar lift-off. Half (20) had posterior-cruciate-retaining (PCR) and half (20) posterior-cruciate-substituting (PS) prostheses. The selected patients had successful arthroplasties with no pain or instability. Each carried out successive weight-bearing knee bends to maximum flexion, and the radiological video tapes were analysed using an interactive model-fitting technique. Femoral lift-off was seen at some increment of knee flexion in 75% of patients (PCR TKA 70%; PS TKA 80%). The mean values for lift-off were 1.2 mm with a PCR TKA and 1.4 mm with a PS TKA. Lift-off occurred mostly laterally with the PCR TKA, and both medially and laterally with the PS TKA. Separation between the femoral condyles and the articular surface of the tibia was recorded at 0 degrees, 30 degrees, 60 degrees and 90 degrees of flexion. Femoral condylar lift-off may contribute to eccentric polyethylene wear, particularly in designs of TKA which have flatter condyles. Coronal conformity is an important consideration in the design of a TKA. 相似文献

Achieving deep knee flexion >145 degrees is a goal of many patients receiving knee arthroplasty in Asia and the Middle East, yet it is unknown whether knees with implants move similar to the natural knee in these postures. We studied 18 of 36 consecutively operated knees that were able to flex >145 degrees using fluoroscopic analysis during kneeling to maximum flexion. An average of 9 degrees tibial internal rotation was observed in deep flexion. Posterior condylar translations were observed from 80 degrees to 120 degrees flexion, and the condyles translated forward in flexion beyond 120 degrees. Separation of the condyles from the tibial surface was observed in 9 knees at flexion >130 degrees. Very deep flexion can be achieved and is well accommodated using contemporary posterior-stabilized knee arthroplasty, but the kinematics differ from the intact natural knee. 相似文献

Background
The lower limb osteometry of Chinese differs from that of whites. The joint line of the knee in the coronal plane in Chinese is more medially inclined and the posterior condylar angle of the distal femur in the axial plane is larger. However, it is unclear whether there is any direct association between the coronal plane and axial plane osteometry.Questions/purposes
We asked whether the joint line obliquity of the knee is related to the posterior condylar angle of the distal femur in young Chinese subjects.Methods
Ninety-nine young Chinese patients with anterior cruciate ligament injuries were recruited. The lower limb alignment and joint line obliquity were measured using standing long radiographs of the whole lower limb. The rotational alignment of the distal femur was assessed in the axial cuts of the MRI.Results
The distal femur rotational alignment was associated with the obliquity of the knee in Chinese. The posterior condylar angle was 5° ± 2°. The knee was 5° ± 3° medially inclined.Conclusions
The joint line of the knee in a group of young Chinese patients was more medially inclined than that of whites. The posterior condylar angle of the distal femur was larger. The presence of an association between distal femur rotational alignment and joint line obliquity in this group of young Chinese patients suggests a possible developmental cause explaining the difference in osteometry between races. 相似文献19.

BACKGROUND: High tension in an anterior cruciate ligament graft adversely affects both the graft and the knee; however, it is unknown why high graft tension in flexion occurs in association with a posterior femoral tunnel. The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of the angle of the femoral and tibial tunnels in the coronal plane and incremental excision of the posterior cruciate ligament on the tension of an anterior cruciate ligament graft during passive flexion. METHODS: Eight cadaveric knees were tested. The angle of the tibial tunnel was varied to 60 degrees, 70 degrees, and 80 degrees in the coronal plane with use of three interchangeable, low-friction bushings. The femoral tunnel, with a 1-mm-thick posterior wall, was drilled through the tibial tunnel bushing with use of the transtibial technique. After the graft had been tested in all three tibial bushings with one femoral tunnel, the femoral tunnel was filled with bone cement and the tunnel combinations were tested. Lastly, the graft was replaced in the 80 degrees femoral and tibial tunnels, and the tests were repeated with excision of the lateral edge of the posterior cruciate ligament in 2-mm increments. Graft tension, the flexion angle, and anteroposterior laxity were recorded in a six-degrees-of-freedom load-application system that passively moved the knee from 0 degrees to 120 degrees of flexion. RESULTS: The graft tension at 120 degrees of flexion was affected by the angle of the femoral tunnel and by incremental excision of the posterior cruciate ligament. The highest graft tension at 120 degrees of flexion was 169 +/- 9 N, which was detected with the graft in the 80 degrees femoral and 80 degrees tibial tunnels. The lowest graft tension at 120 degrees of flexion was 76 +/- 8 N, which was detected with the graft in the 60 degrees femoral and 60 degrees tibial tunnels. The graft tension of 76 N at 120 degrees of flexion with the graft in the 60 degrees femoral and 60 degrees tibial tunnels was closer to the tension in the intact anterior cruciate ligament. Excision of the lateral edge of the posterior cruciate ligament in 2 and 4-mm increments significantly lowered the graft tension at 120 degrees of flexion without changing the anteroposterior position of the tibia. CONCLUSIONS: Placing the femoral tunnel at 60 degrees in the coronal plane lowers graft tension in flexion. Our results suggest that high graft tension in flexion is caused by impingement of the graft against the posterior cruciate ligament, which results from placing the femoral tunnel medially at the apex of the notch in the coronal plane. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To quantify normal, in vivo tibio-femoral knee joint kinematics in multiple weight bearing positions using non-invasive, high-resolution MRI and discuss the potential of developing future kinematic methods to assess patients with abnormal joint pathologies. METHODS: Ten volunteers with clinically normal knees pushed inferiorly on the footplate of a weight bearing apparatus inside the MR scanner. The volunteers held the weight (133 N) for five scans as the knee motion was evaluated from 0 degrees to 60 degrees of flexion. Full extension was set as the zero point for all measured parameters. Using 3D reconstructions, tibia motion relative to the femur and flexion angle was measured as varus-valgus angle, axial rotation, anterior-posterior translation, and medial-lateral translation. Medial and lateral compartment tibio-femoral contact areas were examined and centroids of the contract areas were calculated. RESULTS: Tibial internal rotation averaged 4.8 degrees at 40 degrees of flexion and then decreased. Tibial valgus increased by 8 degrees at 60 degrees of flexion. Femoral roll back also increased to 18.5 mm average at 60 degrees of flexion, while the tibia translated medially 2.5 mm. Medial compartment femoro-tibial contact area started at 374 mm2 and decreased to 308 mm2 with flexion of 60 degrees, while lateral compartment contact area did not change significantly from 276 mm2. CONCLUSIONS: Results correlate with previous studies of knee kinematics while providing greater three-dimensional detail. MR imaging allows excellent non-invasive evaluation of knee joint kinematics with weight bearing. This tool may potentially be used for assessing knee kinematics in patients with knee pathology. 相似文献
