Background
Sensor‐guided assessment for soft tissue balance in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been reported to improve patient satisfaction and self‐reported outcome scores. As more surgeons adopt this technology in TKA, we performed this study to identify if there is a learning curve with its use.
Methods
Analysis of a total of 90 consecutive cases was performed in this study. Initial and final...
Accelerometer-based, portable navigation devices have been introduced as a less invasive and simpler technique to perform navigated surgical implantation of knee prostheses. They have been postulated to have better accuracy than conventional instruments in restoration of alignment in total knee arthroplasty.A total of 190 patients were enrolled in this prospective, randomized controlled trial and...
Patient specific guides (PSG) have been reported to improve overall component alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). With more surgeons likely to consider this method of TKA in the future, this study was performed to establish whether there is a learning curve with use of PSG in TKA.Eighty-six consecutive PSG TKAs performed by one surgeon were retrospectively analyzed in two groups. The first...
Patient specific guides (PSG's) were developed to improve overall component alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study was to undertake a comparative radiographic study of two commonly used PSG and determine whether the radiographic technique used to construct the PSG had a significant effect on overall alignment.This prospective cohort study examined the accuracy of limb-based...
