Knee Stabilizers • Medial • Lateral • Anterior • Posterior • Rotatory
Common Conditions That Lead ToT K R 01 Osteoarthritis Primary (idiopathic) i Secondary Post traumaticarthritis ii 02 RheumatoidArthritis
Knee Arthritis • FarmorecommonthanhipOAinAsianpopulation • Age: 80% above 75years • Genders: Equal in both genders up to 45-55 years. After 55 years • more common infemales
Risk Factors of Osteoarthritis • Increasing age • Obesity • Females • Trauma • Infection • Repetitive OccupationalTrauma
Clinical Features OfOsteoarthritis • Depends upon the stage of involvement • Pain • Loss of Function • Stiffness • Swelling • Deformity • Crepitus
Non Operative Treatment • Non-pharmacologictherapy • Patient’seducation • Use of assistivedevices • Weightloss • Physicaltherapy • Occupationaltherapy • Pharmacologictherapy • NSAIDS • Glucosaminesulphate • Intra articularCorticosteroids • Intra articular Hyaluronicacid
OperativeTreatment • Arthroscopy • Osteotomy • Knee replacementsurgery
KneeReplacement • Total kneereplacement • Partial kneereplacement
Evolution of TKR • Fergussen (1860) resectionarthroplasty • Verneuilperformed first interpositionarthroplasty • 1940s- first artificial implants were tried whenmoldswere fitted in thefemoral condyle • 1950s- combined femoral and tibialarticular surface replacement appeared as simplehinges
Evolution of TKR (count) • Frank Gunston (1971), developed a metal on plastic kneereplacement. • John Insall (1973), designed what has become the prototypeforcurrenttotalkneereplacements.This was a prosthesis made of 3components which would resurface on all the three surfaces of the knee – the femur, tibia andpatella
Classification of Implants Design • Unconstrained • Cruciateretaining • Cruciatesubstituting • Mobile bearingknees • Constrained(Hinged)
Total Knee Replacement Today • Large variety isavailable • Majority of TKRstoday are condylar replacements which consist of thefollowing: • Cobalt-chrome alloy femoralcomponent • Cobalt-chrome alloy or titanium tibialtray • UHMWPE tibialbearingcomponent • UHMWPE patellacomponent
Who Is A Candidate For TKR? • Quality of life severelyaffected • Dailypain • Restriction of ordinaryactivities • Evidence of significant radiographic changes of the knee
TimeFor Replacement • Old age with moresedentary life style • Young patients who have limitedfunctions • Progressivedeformity • Other treatment modalities havefailed • TKRsshouldbedonebeforethingsgetoutofhandsand the patient experiences a severe decrease in ROM,deformity, contracture, joint instability or muscle atrophy
Evaluation Of Patient Before Surgery • A Complete MedicalHistory • Thorough PhysicalExamination • LaboratoryWork-up • AnesthesiaAssessment
Goal of TKR • Painrelief • Restoration of normal limbalignment • Restoration of a functional rangeofmotion
Successful Results Depends upon: • Precise surgicaltechnique • Sound implantdesign • Appropriatematerial • Patient compliance withrehabilitation
Technical Goals Of TKR Surgery • The restoration of mechanicalalignment. • Preservation (or restoration) of thejoint line, • BalancedLigaments • MaintainingorrestoringanormalQangle.
Mechanical Alignment TKA aims at restoring the mechanical axis of the lower limb by: Sequential soft tissue releases Correction of bone defects by grafts or prosthetic augments
Ligament Balancing • a. CoronalPlane • For varusdeformities’ • For valgusdeformities • b. SagittalPlane • Flexioncontractures • Extensioncontractures
Post-OperativeRehabilitation • Rapidpost-operativemobilization • Range of motion exercisesstarted • CPM • Passive extension by placing pillow underfoot • Flexion-bydanglingthelegsoverthesideofbed • Muscle strengtheningexercises • Weightbearingisallowedonfirstpostopday
