Abstract:
BACKGROUND:With the continuous development of minimal y invasive techniques and computer navigation assistive technology, they have powerful attraction and development prospects in theory and practice. But there are controversies and misunderstandings in the application and efficacy of total knee arthroplasty.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize and evaluate the definition indications, contraindications and complications of minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty, as wel as the advantages and disadvantages after replacement and the application of computer navigation assistive technology.
METHODS:A computer-based retrieve was performed in CNKI database and PubMed database for the articles on minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty from 2003 to 2013. The key words of“minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty, minimal incision total knee arthroplasty, computer navigated total knee arthroplasty, computer assisted total knee arthroplasty”in English and Chinese were put in the title and abstract. The articles on the minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty and computer assisted total knee arthroplasty were included, and the old and repetitive articles were eliminated. Final y, 44 articles were included for review according to the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Knee joint diseases can seriously affect the life quality of the patients. Minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty is a newly developed technique in recent ten years, which can provide a new choice for the patients. Studies have shown that minimal y invasive total knee arthroplasty has the advantages of reducing postoperative pain, decreasing the direct cost and fastening the recovery. The computer navigated total knee arthroplasty can make the force line more precise after replacement. But there exist many problems according to the reports at home and abroad, especial y the life and prosthesis and time for revision, those are the fatal factors for the patients.
