Patellofemoral compilcations are among the most frequently observed adverse events after total knee arthroplasty. The posterior location with Femoral component of conventional TKA in AP alignment cause paradoxical movement, but, guide motion TKA (Journey.2.BCS) with anterior post-cam remain a correct AP alignment. The purpose of this study was to investigate patellofemoral (PF) contact stress between Bi-Cruciate Substituting TKA (Journey.2.BCS) and CR TKA (Journey.CR). We evaluated 22 knees with medial compartment osteoarthritis who underwent. Simultaneous bilateral TKA. The prospective randomized study was to measure intraoperative PF contact stress by a patellofemoral sensor (Kyowa Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) comparing the identical Bi-Cruciate Substituting or CR Journey.2 total knee prostheses implanted bilaterally in the same patient.INTRODUCTION
METHODS
Normal kinematics have not been achieved in TKA design. Recently, knee simulation studies have suggested that a medial pivot TKA can achieve the anatomic pathway that reduce mid-flextion rollback and increase lateral rotation. However, the influence of postoperative flextion angle associated with medial tightness for guide motion TKA remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of postoperative flextion angle and clinical outcomes associated with tightness for medial component gap (MCP). We evaluated 79 patients who underwent 84 medial pivot The Journey.2. Bi-Cruciate Substituting (BCS) TKA using the measured resection tequnique, from June 2014 to March 2016. We measured the gaps after implantation from extension to full flextion with reduced patella by constant distraction force (120N). A new tensor has the same articular shapes as that the tibial liner, including anterior and posterior structure.INTRODUCTION
