This is the second of a series of reviews of registries. This review looks specifically at worldwide registry data that have been collected on knee arthroplasty, what we have learned from their reports, and what the limitations are as to what we currently know.
The October 2014 Knee Roundup360 looks at: microfracture equivalent to OATS; examination better than MRI in predicting hamstrings re-injury; a second view on return to play with hamstrings injuries; dislocation risks in the Oxford Unicompartmental Knee; what about the tibia?; getting on top of lateral facet pain post TKR; readmission in TKR; patient-specific instrumentation; treating infrapatellar saphenous neuralgia; and arthroscopy in the middle-aged.
The June 2015 Research Roundup360 looks at: Tranexamic acid: just give it – it’s not important how!; The anterolateral ligament re-examined; Warfarin a poor post-operative agent; Passive exoskeleton the orthosis of the future?; Musculoskeletal medicine: a dark art to UK medical students?; Alendronic acid and bone density post arthroplasty; Apples with oranges? Knee functional scores revisited
The April 2015 Knee Roundup360 looks at: Genetic determinants of ACL strength; TKA outcomes influenced by prosthesis; Single- or two-stage revision for infected TKA?; Arthroscopic meniscectomy: a problem that just won’t go away!; Failure in arthroscopic ACL reconstruction; ACL reconstruction in the over 50s?; Knee arthroplasty for early osteoarthritis; All inside meniscal repair; Steroids, thrombogenic markers and TKA
The February 2013 Knee Roundup360 looks at: mobile-bearing TKRs; arthroscopic ACL reconstruction; the use of chondrocytes for osteochondral defects; ACL reconstruction and the return to pivoting sports; ACLs and the MOON study; the benefit of knee navigation; and trabecular metal.
