Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of the antero-posterior translation of the femur on the maximum knee flexion and the relative movement of the femur for the three different kinds of prosthesis after total knee arthroplasty(TKA), such as posterior-stabilizing, fixed-bearing and mobile-bearing with the PCL retention. Methods 25 patients were selected for each kind of the prosthesis, and the inclusion criterion was based as the knee OA, good-excellent outcome after TKA, the flexion of the knee beyond 90?, and more than one year follow-up. The average age of these patients was 68 years with a range of 63 to 77 years, which involved 32 males and 43 females. The average preoperative knee flexion in the three groups were 77.8??15.1?, 80.1??12.9? and 76.4??12.7? respectively. The roentgenograms were taken both at the knee extension and maximum flexion, then the femur translation and the knee flexion were measured. Results The difference of the knee flexion among three groups preoperatively was of no significance. The maximum postoperative knee flexion in the posterior stabilizing, fixed-bearing and mobile-bearing was 118.0??7.1?,108.7??7.9? and 100.2??8.3? respectively. The analysis of variance showed the difference was of significance (F=32.86, P=0.0001). The relative movement about the femoral prosthesis in the three groups were (6.3?2.5) mm, (1.2?4.6) mm and ( 4.7?3.7) mm respectively (the posterior movement was positive, and the anterior was negative). The difference was of significance(F=57.71, P=0.0001). The femoral antero-posterior translation was proved to have correlation with the maximum knee flexion. Conclusion The femoral translation among three groups are different in manner, accordingly, the maximum knee flexion was different too.
