Proper soft tissue balance is crucial for a successful clinical outcome after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Bi-cruciate substituting (BCS)-TKA has been developed to more closely approximate normal knee characteristics. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate midflexion laxity before and after BCS-TKA using a navigation system, and assess the correlation between intraoperative laxity and the maximum flexion angle after surgery.
Fifty-one knees in 46 patients with osteoarthritis replaced with BCS prosthesis were assessed. Manual mild passive internal-external rotational and varus-valgus stress was applied to the knees, and the maximum total laxity was measured automatically by a navigation system before and after TKA. The correlations with the range of motion (ROM) were evaluated using Spearman's correlation coefficients (ρ).
Internal-external stress assessment revealed no statistically significant difference at each flexion angle before and after BCS-TKA. In contrast, the varus-valgus stress assessment revealed that BCS-TKA had significantly decreased varus-valgus laxity from preoperative levels at 20-120° flexion angles. Furthermore, the maximum flexion angle at six months after surgery significantly correlated with the intraoperative laxity at deep flexion range.
BCS-TKA stabilized varus-valgus laxity to better than preoperative levels at midflexion range.
合适的软组织平衡对于全膝关节置换术(TKA)后的成功临床结果至关重要。双交叉替代(BCS)-TKA已被开发出来,以更接近正常膝关节的特征。本研究的目的是使用导航系统评估BCS-TKA前后的屈膝松弛度,并评估术中松弛度与术后最大屈曲角度之间的相关性。
对46例骨关节炎患者的51个膝关节进行BCS假体置换评估。对膝关节施加手动轻度被动内外旋转和内翻-外翻应力,并在TKA前后通过导航系统自动测量最大总松弛度。使用Spearman相关系数(ρ)评估与运动范围(ROM)的相关性。
内外应力评估显示,BCS-TKA前后各屈曲角度无统计学显著差异。相比之下,内翻-外翻应力评估显示,BCS-TKA在20-120°屈曲角度时,内翻-外翻松弛度较术前水平显著降低。此外,术后6个月的最大屈曲角度与深屈曲范围内的术中松弛度显著相关。
BCS-TKA在屈膝范围内将内翻-外翻松弛度稳定在优于术前水平。
