BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:336. [PMID: 38671454 PMCID: PMC11046884 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07466-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND An optimized fit of the tibial component to the resection platform and correct rotational alignment are critical for successful total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, there remains controversy regarding the superiority of symmetric tibial component versus asymmetric tibial component. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the current evidence for comparing the coverage and rotation of asymmetrical and symmetrical tibial component. METHODS We searched potentially relevant studies form PubMed, Web of science, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), up to 1 March 2023. Data extraction and quality assessment were performed by two independent reviewers. Meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4. RESULTS Sixteen articles were identified. Compared to symmetric tibial component, asymmetric tibial component increased the coverage of the proximal tibial cut surface (MD, -2.87; 95%CI, -3.45 to -2.28; P < 0.00001), improved the prevalence of tibial baseplate underhang (OR, 0.16; 95%CI, 0.07 to 0.33; P < 0.00001) and malrotation (OR, 0.13; 95%CI, 0.02 to 0.90; P = 0.04), and reduced the degree of tibial component rotation (MD, -3.11; 95%CI, -5.76 to -0.47; P = 0.02). But there was no statistical significance for improving tibial baseplate overhang (OR, 0.58; 95%CI, 0.08 to 3.97; P = 0.58). Additionally, no revision had occurred for the two tibial components in the included studies. CONCLUSION The current evidence shows asymmetric tibial component offer advantages in terms of coverage and rotation compared with symmetric tibial component in TKA.

Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:5857-5865. [PMID: 36928502 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-023-04837-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Posterior cruciate-stabilized (PS) and ultracongruent (UC) inserts are used during total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but superiority in gaining postoperative knee flexion and functionality remains contested. Therefore, this study compared postoperative outcomes between PS and UC inserts. METHODS A retrospective review evaluated unilateral or bilateral TKAs with PS or UC inserts from August 2011 to March 2020. Nonparametric statistics were performed to evaluate differences in patient demographics, pre- and postknee flexion and Knee Society Knee (KSS-K) and Function Score (KSS-F). Univariate and multivariable regressions were performed to evaluate the influence on postoperative knee flexion ≥ 120°, presented as odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS Patient demographics were not significantly different between the 577 PS and 399 UC knees evaluated. Postoperatively, a larger proportion of UC knees demonstrated knee flexion < 120° (36.0% vs. 18.6%, p < 0.001) and lower KSS-K (91.0 ± 8.7 vs. 91.6 ± 10.3, p < 0.001) and KSS-F (76.8 ± 21.6 vs. 79.9 ± 21.6, p = 0.007) than the PS group. The PS group had greater improvement in flexion angle (4.9° ± 14.9° vs. 1.0° ± 15.6°, p < 0.001) and KSS-F (27.3 ± 23.3 vs. 23.1 ± 25.3, p = 0.007) as compared to that of UC patients. Patients with preoperative flexion < 120° (OR 2.787, CI 2.066-3.761; p < 0.001), higher body mass index (OR 1.033, CI 1.006-1.061; p = 0.017) and UC insert (OR 2.461, CI 1.832-3.307; p < 0.001) were less likely to achieve flexion ≥ 120°. CONCLUSION Favorable clinical and functional outcomes were noted in the PS group as compared to UC inserts in TKA. The greater improvement in overall knee flexion may suggest the PS insert may be especially appropriate for patients with lower preoperative range of motion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective comparative study.

Preliminary Study on Immediate Postoperative CT Images and Values of the Modular Polyetheretherketone Based Total Knee Arthroplasty: An Observational First-in-Human Trial. Front Surg 2022; 9:809699. [PMID: 35237649 PMCID: PMC8882580 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.809699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is now frequently performed and is highly successful. However, patient satisfaction after TKA is often difficult to achieve. Because of the presence of metallic prosthetic knee joints, there is a lack of imaging tools that can accurately assess the patient's postoperative prosthetic position, soft tissue impingement, and periprosthetic bone density after TKA. We conducted a clinical trial of the world's first totally modular polyetheretherketone (PEEK) TKA and determined the bone density values in the stress concentration area around the prosthesis based on postoperative computed tomography data to reconstruct a three-dimensional model of the PEEK prosthetic knee joint after implantation. Based on the model, the overhang of the prosthesis was measured at various locations on the prosthesis. METHODS All patients who underwent PEEK-based TKA were postoperatively assessed with radiography and computed tomography (CT). Hounsfield units (HUs) for the different components of the quantitative CT assessment were measured separately. RESULTS Ten patients (nine female and one male) aged 59-74 (mean 66.9, median 67) years were included. The HU values were as follows: PEEK prosthesis mean 182.95, standard deviation (SD) 4.90, coefficient of variation (CV) 2.68; polyethylene mean -89.41, SD 4.14, CV -4.63; lateral femoral osteochondral mean 192.19, SD 55.05, CV 28.64; lateral tibial osteochondral mean 122.94, SD 62.14, CV 42.86; medial femoral osteophyte mean 180.76, SD 43.48, CV 24.05; and medial tibial osteophyte mean 282.59, SD 69.28, CV 24.52. Analysis of the data at 1, 3, and 6 months showed that the mean PE (p = 0.598) and PEEK (p = 0.916) measurements did not change with the time of measurement. There was a decrease in bone mineral density in the lateral tibia at 3 months (p = 0.044). Otherwise, there was no significant change in bone density in other regions (p = 0.124-0.803). There was no overhang in all femoral prostheses, whereas there were two cases of overhang in tibial prostheses. Overhang measurements do not differ significantly across time points. The overhang measurements were not significantly different at all time points (p = 0.186-0.967). CONCLUSION PEEK knee joint prosthesis has excellent CT compatibility. The change in periprosthetic bone volume during the follow-up period can be determined using the HU value after CT scan, while the prosthesis position can be assessed. This assessment may potentially guide future improvements in knee prosthesis alignment techniques and artificial knee prosthesis designs.
