Total knee arthroplasties from the origin to navigation: history, rationale, indications

International audienceSince the early 1970s, total knee arthroplasties have undergone many changes in both their design and their surgical instrumentation. It soon became apparent that to improve prosthesis durability, it was essential to have instruments which allowed them to be fitted reliably and consistently. Despite increasingly sophisticated surgical techniques, preoperative objectives were only met in 75% of cases, which led to the development, in the early 1990s, in Grenoble (France), of computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery for knee prosthesis implantation. In the early 2000s, many navigation systems emerged, some including pre-operative imagery ("CT-based"), others using intra-operative imagery ("fluoroscopy-based"), and yet others with no imagery at all ("imageless"), which soon became the navigation "gold standard". They use an optoelectronic tracker, markers which are fixed solidly to the bones and instruments, and a navigation workstation (computer), with a control system (e.g. pedal). Despite numerous studies demonstrating the benefit of computer navigation in meeting preoperative objectives, such systems have not yet achieved the success they warrant, for various reasons we will be covering in this article. If the latest navigation systems prove to be as effective as the older systems, they should give this type of technology a well-deserved boost

Results with nine years mean follow up on one hundred and three KAPS® uni knee arthroplasties: eighty six medial and seventeen lateral

International audiencePURPOSE:The purpose of this study was to present the results of the KAPS® uni knee arthroplasty system, both mobile and fixed bearing with reference to function, alignment and complications in 103 implants with a mean follow-up of nine years.METHODS:This was a retrospective study of 103 unicompartimental knee arthroplasties in 89 patients operated on between March 2005 and March 2010. The population was composed of 50 males and 39 females, with a mean age of 70.5 ± 7.5 years (41 - 90). Eighty-seven patients had a genu varum deformity (84.5%), one of whom had an osteoid osteoma of the lateral tibial plateau and 16 patients had a genu valgum (15.5%). Eighty-six medial prostheses were implanted (82 mobile bearings and 4 fixed bearings) and 17 lateral prostheses (all fixed bearings) including the osteoid osteoma.RESULTS:At a mean follow-up of 107.5 months (73-138), 72 knees (58 patients) were reviewed (70%). The mean IKS score was of 173 ± 31 points (58 - 200). The mean Oxford knee score was 21 ± 8 points (12 - 50). The cumulated survival rate at a follow up of 132 months was 98.2%.CONCLUSION:The KAPS® unicompartmental knee arthroplasty gives efficacious and safe outcomes in the majority of cases at a mean follow-up of nine years. The availability of both fixed and mobile bearings with the same instrumentation, allowing to choose the right implant intra-operatively, is a great advantage in order to avoid the occurrence of some complications, specific to mobile bearing prostheses (dislocation and over-correction)

Results with eight and a half years average follow-up on two hundred and eight e-Motion FP® knee prostheses, fitted using computer navigation for knee osteoarthritis in patients with over ten degrees genu varum

International audiencePURPOSE:The aim of this study was to analyse the clinical and radiographic results of 208 e-Motion® posterior cruciate-retaining, mobile bearing prostheses (BBraun-Aesculap, Tuttlingen, Germany) fitted using computer navigation, for knee osteoarthritis with a genu varum greater than 10°.METHODS:One hundred ninety-two patients were operated on with 208 e-Motion® prostheses fitted, between January 2006 and December 2011, using the OrthoPilot® computer navigation system. Average pre-operative IKS score was 70 ± 27 points (6-143) with a function score of 38 ± 20.5 (0-90) and a knee score of 32.5 ± 13 (0-63). Average flexion was 116.5° ± 13° (65-140°). Average pre-operative HKA angle was 166° ± 3° (154-169°).RESULTS:2Results are available for 134 patients, with a total of 150 knees operated on (38 lost to follow-up and 20 deceased). Average follow-up was 104.5 months (60-116 months). On last follow-up, the average IKS was 180 ± 22 points (95-200) with 86.5 ± 16 points (25-100) for the function score and 93.5 ± 8 points (55-100) for the knee score. Knee flexion was 116° ± 10.5° (80-135°) and average HKA angle was 179° ± 2° (175-184°). The pre-operative objective was achieved in 90.5% of knees.CONCLUSION:The e-Motion® mobile bearing posterior cruciate-retaining prosthesis, fitted using computer navigation, offers excellent results after an average of 8.5 years follow-up. These results are at least equivalent, even superior, to those of the posterior-stabilised prostheses usually used for this type of deformity

Influence of the post-operative axis on the clinical results of total knee replacement for severe varus deformities: does a slight residual varus improve the results?

International audiencePURPOSE:Some recent articles have suggested that in the case of large varus deformity, it may be advantageous to leave some residual post-operative varus as a means of improving functional outcome. The objective of this study is to compare the results of total knee replacement (TKR) performed for significant varus deformity (HKA  180°).METHODS:This series was made up of 208 knees. The mean pre-operative HKA angle was 166 ± 3° (154-169°), of which 150 were followed up for a mean 8.5 years (58 lost to follow-up). Based on post-operative radiographs, two groups were formed: group 1 (88 knees) in which post-operative alignment was 177.8 ± 1° (175-179°) and group 2 (62 knees) in which post-operative alignment was 181 ± 1° (180-184°).RESULTS:The mean international knee society (IKS) score for group 1 was 178.8 ± 22 points (113-200) and 181.7 ± 22 points (95-200) for group 2. Oxford knee score was 20.4 ± 9 points (12-45) in group 1 and 19.2 ± 9 (12-50) in group 2. The results were slightly better in group 2 (in slight valgus) but this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.44 and 0.4).CONCLUSION:The results of knee replacement performed for severe varus deformity are not adversely affected by post-operative valgus alignment. There is in fact a trend towards superior results for neutral or valgus alignment than slight residual varus, but this difference was not statistically significant

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with the Tape Locking Screw (TLS) and a short hamstring graft: Clinical evaluation of 61 cases with a minimum 12 months’ follow-up

International audienceINTRODUCTION:The Tape Locking Screw (TLS®) technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has the advantages of using only one hamstring tendon (semitendinosus) by preparing a short graft secured with screws and braided strips. The theoretical pitfall of this technique is that the graft length is determined arbitrarily. Thus, if the blind tunnels are not long enough, it will be impossible to tension the graft properly upon fixation. The primary objective of this study was to determine the postoperative side-to-side difference in knee laxity. We hypothesized that ACL reconstruction with the TLS(R) system would result in 3mm or less side-to-side difference in knee laxity.MATERIAL AND METHODS:This was a prospective single-center, single-surgeon study performed on patients operated between December 2014 and June 2016 who had a minimum 12 months' follow-up. The pre- and post-operative side-to-side difference in knee laxity was measured with a KT-1000 arthrometer. Secondary outcomes were the pre- and post-operative IKDC, Lysholm and Tegner functional scores.RESULTS:Sixty-one patients were included: 49 men (80%) and 12 women (20%). The average age was 31.6±13.7 years. The average follow-up was 19.3±6.3 months. The average side-to-side difference in laxity went from 6.5mm (min 3; max 12) preoperatively to -0.1mm postoperatively (min -5, max 4) (p<0.01). The average IKDC went from 39.7±12 preoperatively to 94.1±11.2 postoperatively (p<0.005), the average Lysholm score went from 41±12.9 to 95.5±9.8 (p<0.005), and the average Tegner score went from 6.3±1.5 to 4.3±1.4 (p<0.005). Patients were able to return to sports an average of 6.1 months after surgery. In terms of complications, 4.9% of patients developed a cyclops lesion and required surgical revision.DISCUSSION:This study found very good reduction in postoperative laxity after a minimum 12 months' follow-up when ACL reconstruction is performed with the TLS® technique.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:IV, prospective cohort study

Gait analysis following medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy

International audiencePURPOSE: High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is used to treat young and active patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and varus deformity. The medial compartment OA alters the patients' gait.METHODS: A prospective study was carried out in 21 consecutive patients operated for HTO due to knee OA with varus deformity. There were 14 men and 7 women, with a median age of 51.9 years (38-64). Their gait was analyzed preoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively, and compared to a healthy control group. Clinical assessment (KOOS, WOMAC, Lysholm, and SF-36 scores) was also performed preoperatively and postoperatively.RESULTS: Patients with medial compartment OA had altered gait relative to the control population. Their walking speed was slower, step length was shorter, and single-leg stance time was shorter, while the double-leg stance time was longer (P < 0.001). Step width was not different between the two groups preoperatively (n.s.), but it was wider in the patient group postoperatively (P = 0.003). There were no differences in the patients' gait parameters before and after the osteotomy (n.s.). However, there was an improved perception of walking so that it is no longer different from controls (n.s.). The KOOS, WOMAC, Lysholm and SF-36 scores improved after HTO. The preoperative median of 7° varus (1-11) was corrected to 3° valgus (0-6).CONCLUSION: Medial compartment OA with varus deformity leads to gait modifications. HTO does not alter the time-distance parameters of gait; however, patients have improved perception of their walking ability. HTO leads to excellent results for knee function, and improves quality of life without modifying the gait pattern

International audiencePURPOSE:The aim of this study was to evaluate the medium-term results of total knee replacements (TKRs) after medial opening wedge valgising tibial osteotomy to those of primary TKR (TKR1). The hypothesis being that there would be no difference in results between these groups.METHODS:Series 1 was made up of 45 TKRs after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MHTO)-30 men and ten women at an average age of 69 ± seven years (54-82). This was compared to a second series of TKR1s-30 men and ten women at an average age of 69 ± seven years (55-78). The average IKS scores were 91 ± 22.5 points (42-129) and 86 ± 18 points (38-116) in the two groups respectively. The average pre-operative HKA angle was 179 ± 5° (169-193°) in group 1, and 173 ± 7.5° (161-193°) in group 2. Tibial mechanical axes were 90.5 ± 4° (of which 24 knees had a valgus angle) and 85.05 ± 3.5° (79-93°) in the two groups respectively.RESULTS:All patients were reviewed at an average follow-up of 47 ± 24.5 months for series 1 and 185 ± 8.5 months for series 2. The average IKS score was 184 ± 6 for series 1 (172-200) and 185 ± 8.5 (163-200) for series 2 (p = 0.872). Thirty-seven patients in series 1 and 38 patients in series 2 were either extremely satisfied or satisfied with the intervention. The average post-operative HKA angle was 180.5 ± 2.5° and 181 ± 2° (p = 0.122) and the average tibial mechanical axis was 89 ± 1.5° against 90 ± 1° (p = 0.001). The results of the 24 knees with a valgus tibial mechanical axis were statistically no different.CONCLUSIONS:TKRs post medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy have identical results to primary TKRs even in knees with a valgus tibial mechanical axis
