Abstract:
Insall-Burstein Posterior stabilized knee prosthesis is a variant of total condylar prosthesis. It is designed to get more wide range of flexion and stability with the transverse cam. We analyze with modified HSS knee rating score clinically and scoring system of AKS(American Knee Society) radiologically. We report the operative results in 34 cases of 25 patients whom we operated with Insall-Burstein PSP from August, 1982 to May, 1985 and the long term follow-up result of 24 cases of 16 patients, excluding three death and 7 cases of 6 patients who were lost to follow up. Follow-up period is average 11 years and 5 months. The average preoperative flexion contracture improved markedly. The average preoperative flexion arc was 95° and preoperative flexion contracture was 14°. The postoperative ROM and flexion contracture improved markedly. The average preoperative modified HSS knee rating scoring was 52 points and improved to 91 points at last follow-up. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis had progression of other joints involvement which limited the activity of daily living. At the last follow up, loosening signs were not observed radiologically but three cases of radiolucent zone were observed in the zone I, II, III, IV, VII of tibial components and zone III, VI of femoral components. There were two deep infections.
