Abstract Background Malnutrition is a common and modifiable risk factor for
postoperative complications and adverse outcomes in orthopedics. The purpose of
this study was to identify biomarkers of malnutrition in patients undergoing
elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that are predictive of adverse
in-hospital postoperative complications, to facilitate the identification of
at-risk patients for... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractResidual knee instability and low rates of return to previous sport are
major concerns after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. To improve
outcomes, surgical methods, such as the anatomical single-bundle technique or
the double-bundle technique, were developed. However, these reconstruction
techniques failed to adequately overcome these problems, and, therefore, new
potential... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractBackgroundWe sought to determine whether there was a difference in the
posterior condylar offset (PCO), posterior condylar offset ratio (PCOR) and
clinical outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with anterior
referencing (AR) or posterior referencing (PR) systems. We also assessed whether
the PCO and PCOR changes, as well as patient factors were related to range of
motion (ROM) i... hiện toàn bộ

Abstract Background The use of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has
increased and new technologies have been developed to improve patient survival
and satisfaction, soft tissue balance, alignment, and component size.
Robot-assisted systems offer an increase in surgical precision and accuracy. The
purpose of this study is to evaluate the precision of component position using
five radiologic... hiện toàn bộ
ABSTRACT Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the proprioceptive
function of patients with isolated articular cartilage lesions of the knee as
compared to normal controls. Methods The Cartilage group consisted of eight
subjects with radiologically and arthroscopically confirmed, isolated,
unilateral, articular cartilage lesions of the knee (Outerbridge grade III or
IV). They were co... hiện toàn bộ

Abstract With the rising number of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
reconstructions, revision ACL reconstructions are becoming increasingly common.
A revision procedure may be performed to improved knee function, correct
instability, and facilitate a return to normal activities. When performing a
revision reconstruction, the surgeon decides between a single-stage or a
two-stage revision. Two-stage... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractBackgroundPreoperative radiographic templating for total knee
arthroplasty (TKA) has been shown to be inaccurate. Patient demographic data,
such as gender, height, weight, age, and race, may be more predictive of
implanted component size in TKA.Materials and methodsA multivariate linear
regression model was designed to predict implanted femoral and tibial component
size using demographic d... hiện toàn bộ
Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of
patellar facet angle on pre- and postoperative patellofemoral alignment and the
progress of arthritis of the patellofemoral joint in posterior-stabilized total
knee arthroplasty (PS TKA) without patellar resurfacing. Methods Patients who
had a PS TKA for a varus osteoarthritic knee who were followed up for more than
2 year... hiện toàn bộ

AbstractBackgroundWith an increase in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) following total
knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the Asian population, most surgeons today use a form
of prophylactic anticoagulant agents in patients after TKA. Nevertheless, DVT
occasionally develops even in these patients with prophylaxis. The purpose of
this study was to identify the risk factors for DVT after TKA in cases of
postopera... hiện toàn bộ
