Oct 2. 89 Suppl 1. Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty enables near normal gait at higher speeds, unlike total knee arthroplasty. Wiik AV, Manning V, Strachan RK, Amis AA, Cobb JP. Top walking speed TWS was used to compare UKA with TKA. Two groups of 2. 3 patients, well matched for age, gender, height and weight and radiological severity were recruited based on high functional scores, more than twelve months post UKA or TKA. These were compared with 1. Their gait was measured at increasing speeds on a treadmill instrumented with force plates. Both arthroplasty groups were significantly faster than the preop OA group. TKA patients walked substantially faster than any previously reported series of knee arthroplasties. UKA patients walked 1. TKA, although not as fast as the normal controls. Stride length was 5 greater and stance time 7 shorter following UKA both much closer to normal than TKA. Unlike TKA, UKA enables a near normal gait one year after surgery. J Biomech 2. 00. 5 Feb 3. Tibio femoral movement in the living knee. A study of weight bearing and non weight bearing knee kinematics using interventional MRI. Johal P, Williams A, Wragg P, Hunt D, Gedroyc W. The aim of this study was to image tibio femoral movement during flexion in the living knee. Ten loaded male Caucasian knees were initially studied using MRI, and the relative tibio femoral motions, through the full flexion arc in neutral tibial rotation, were measured. On knee flexion from hyperextension to 1. From 1. 20 degrees to full squatting there was another 1. D Maya Models Rig. The medial femoral condyle demonstrated minimal posterior translation until 1. Thereafter, it moved 9 mm posteriorly to lie on the superior surface of the medial meniscal posterior horn. Thus, during flexion of the knee to 1. However, on flexion beyond 1. Android Language Project Software. The second part of this study investigated the effect of gender, side, load and longitudinal rotation. The pattern of relative tibio femoral movement during knee flexion appears to be independent of gender and side. Femoral external rotation or tibial internal rotation occurs with knee flexion under loaded and unloaded conditions, but the magnitude of rotation is greater and occurs earlier on weight bearing. With flexion plus tibial internal rotation, the pattern of movement follows that in neutral. With flexion in tibial external rotation, the lateral femoral condyle adopts a more anterior position relative to the tibia and, particularly in the non weight bearing knee, much of the femoral external rotation that occurs with flexion is reversed. The Knee Impact Factor 1. DOI 1. 0. 1. 01. Patient specific implants with custom cutting blocks better approximate natural knee kinematics than standard TKA without custom cutting blocks. Patil, Shantanu, Adam Bunn, William D. Bugbee, Clifford W. Colwell, and Darryl D. DLima. Background Nearly 1. TKA patients report dissatisfaction causing incomplete return of function. We proposed that the kinematics of knees implanted with patient specific prostheses using patient specific cutting guides would be closer to normal. Methods Eighteen matched cadaver lower limbs were randomly assigned to two groups group A was implanted with patient specific implants using patient specific cutting guides group B, the contralateral knee, was implanted with a standard design using intramedullary alignment cutting guides. Knee kinematics were measured on a dynamic closed kinetic chain Oxford knee rig, simulating a deep knee bend and in a passive rig testing varus valgus laxity. Results The difference from normal kinematics was lower for group A compared to group B for active femoral rollback, active tibiofemoral adduction, and for passive varus valgus laxity. Conclusions Our results support the hypothesis that knees with patient specific implants generate kinematics more closely resembling normal knee kinematics than standard knee designs. Clinical Relevance Restoring normal kinematics may improve function and patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty.
