Complications of Patella in Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)

Medical & Clinical Research | 2021

Background and Methods: Postoperative complications may impair the outcome of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patellar instability is a major cause of postoperative pain and functional limitation for which revision surgery may be necessary [1]. It may occur after TKA with or without patellar resurfacing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Subluxation is more common than dislocation; the i...

Joint line elevation in revision TKA leads to increased patellofemoral contact forces

Journal of Orthopaedic Research | 2010 | Christian König, Alexey Sharenkov, Georg Matziolis, William R. Taylor

AbstractOne difficulty in revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the management of distal femoral bone defects in which a joint line elevation (JLE) is likely to occur. Although JLE has been associated with inferior clinical results, the effect that an elevated joint line has on knee contact forces has not been investigated. To understand the clinical observations and elabor...
