Abstract:
[Objective]To compare clinical results of the mini midvastus approach with the traditional medial parapatellar approach for totall knee arthroplasty and to evaluate their advantages.[Methods]Sixty total knee arthroplasty(56 patients)have been freated during May 2002 to May 2006,28 patients(30 knee) were underwent TKA using either mini midvastus approach or traditional medial parapatellar approach.Two groups were compared according to skin incision length,postoperative pain score,total amount of drains,postoperative amount of decreasing Hb,active straight-leg raise time,postoperative length of stay,radiographic alignment of all the components,postoperative range of motion at 6 weeks and 12 weeks and 1 year,postoperative HSS score at 1 year.[Results]All the patients were followed from 1 to 1.5 year(mean,13.2 months).Position of all the components was normal in all patients except one case with abnormal position of tibial prosthesis in both groups.In the MIS group,the average skin incision length was 11.3 cm,average visual analog pain scale was 2.76 score,while the control group was 20.6 cm and 3.8 score.In the MIS group,the total amount of drains was 96.8 ml,postoperative amount of decreasing Hb was 22.5 g,while the control group was 276.3 ml and 32.5 g.In the MIS group,active straight-leg raise time was 3.8 days,postoperative length of stay was 8.6 days,while the control group was 5.8 days and 12.1 days.In the MIS group,the mean ROM at 6 weeks postoperatively was 107?and 117?at 12 weeks,while the control group was 98?and 108?.The differences between each factor group and operative results were significant(P0.05).[Conclusion]The mini midvastus approach wis associated with a more rapid functional recovery and a more satisfactory short-term result.
