Purpose

When we perform total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the accurate osteotomy and implant setting is important as follows to improve long-term results. As means to perform osteotomy exactly, patient specific surgical instruments (PSI) patient specific surgical instruments planning based on pre-operative MRI (Signature, Materialise) and Image-free navigation system (Navi: Knee unlimited; BrainLAB) exist. However, there is not the report to compare which is exact for the same patient at the same time using two methods. We report to compare the osteotomy plans by two methods.

Materials

Nine cases of TKA (Vanguard Complete Knee System, PS, BIOMET) operated on by one operator in our hospital from October 2012 to September 2013. 78.0 years average age (71–81 years old), sex was 6 cases women, 3 men.
