Aims. The purpose of this study is to determine an individual’s age-specific prevalence of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after
To compare posterior
Objectives. Congenital
Purpose: At a time when total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with an ultra-congruent tibial plateau or a mobile plateau are advocated by many, the question is whether TKA with a fixed plateau preserving the posterior
Aims. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of posterior
Introduction. Ideally, a patient receiving a unicondylar knee replacement will have fully functional anterior and posterior
Poor availability of allografts in South Africa has led to an increased use of synthetic augmentation to stabilize knee joints in the treatment of knee dislocations. This study aims to evaluate multiligament knee injuries treated with a posterior
The consideration of the individual knee ligament attachments is crucial for the application of patient specific musculoskeletal models in the clinical routine, e.g. in knee arthroplasty. Commonly, the pre-operative planning is based on CT images, where no soft tissue information is available. The goal of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a full automatic and robust mesh morphing method that estimates locations of
Abstract. Cranial
Aims. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with a highly congruent condylar-stabilized (CS) articulation may be advantageous due to increased stability versus cruciate-retaining (CR) designs, while mitigating the limitations of a posterior-stabilized construct. The aim was to assess ten-year implant survival and functional outcomes of a cemented single-radius TKA with a CS insert, performed without posterior
Aim: The purpose of study was to analyse osseous changes of tibial spine in radiographs of knees with aplasia of
Purpose: Injury of both
We have examined the relationship between the size of the flexion gap and the anterior translation of the tibia in flexion during implantation of a posterior
Background:. For the past four decades controversy surrounds the decision to retain or sacrifice the posterior
The significance of the posterior
In 30 rabbits, the medial meniscus was used to replace the anterior or posterior
An operation using either the medial or the lateral meniscus to effect the late repair of torn
We investigated the role of a functional brace worn for four months in the treatment of patients with an acute isolated tear of the posterior
The issue of preservation or sacrifice of the posterior
Post traumatic myositisossificans is a benign condition of heterotropic ossification of unknown aetiology which typically is related to trauma from a single blow or repeated episodes of microtrauma. We describe an unusual case of myositis ossificans which developed as a complication at the donor site for hamstring autologous graft used in open anterior and posterior cruciate repair and posterolateral corner reconstruction in a 15 year old girl. Case report: A 15 year old girl sustained a closed traumatic dislocation of her left knee when she fell from a trampoline. She underwent emergency manipulation under anaesthetic and closed reduction followed by MRI scan which showed a complete disruption of the lateral collateral ligament complex, posterolateral corner injury, complete tears of the anterior and posterior
