ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical results and accuracy of femoral cutting in the coronal plane in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using a fixed length intramedullary guide. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
From 2005 to 2008, 101 patients (154 knees) underwent TKA (NexGen LPS implant). The minimal follow-up period was 3 years (mean, 4.4 years). The patients were divided into two groups (group 1, 94alpha, 98 or =2degrees MAD was 65 in group 1 and 24 in group 2. The mean PTA, KSKS, and KSFS were 10.17degrees, 96.0, and 96.6, respectively, in group 1 and 11.58degrees, 84.5, and 85.5, respectively, in group 2.CONCLUSIONS:
The percentage of coronal alignment outliers was relatively high (34 in 154 cases, 22%) after TKA using a fixed length intramedullary guide. However, there was no statistically significant intergroup difference in clinical results (KSKS, p=0.67; KSFS, p=0.56).
