Clinical outcome of primary TKA performed with Patient Matched Cutting Blocks (PMCB) with minimum 1 year follow-up

Aim

To assess the clinical outcome at 1 year of 30 cases of primary TKA performed with PMCB.

Method

Data was collected prospectively pre-operatively on over 100 primary TKA's performed with PMCB. Of these cases, 30 have reached a point of 1 year follow-up. Validated outcome measures including American Knee Society score, Oxford Knee Score and WOMAC were completed pre-operatively and at 1 year. Radiographic analysis of alignment was performed.

Results

Oxford score improved from 16 to 38. WOMAC score improved from 40 to 17. AKS total score improved from 85 to 172. All improvements were statistically significant. No cases were aligned at >+/−3 degrees from neutral alignment.

Conclusion

Our first 30 cases to reach 1 year follow-up using PMCB have shown excellent improvement in clinical scores and good radiographic alignment
