Effects of different prosthetic instrumentations on tibial bone resection in total knee arthroplasty

Abstract Our aim was to assess the accuracy of the obtained posterior tibial slope (PTS) with a fixed angle cutting block. 247 TKAs in 213 patients were reviewed. We included 104 Legion Prosthesis, 76 U2 Knee Prosthesis, 46 NexGen LPS-Flex Prosthesis, and 21 Vanguard Knee System products. Preoperati...

Sumario:Abstract Our aim was to assess the accuracy of the obtained posterior tibial slope (PTS) with a fixed angle cutting block. 247 TKAs in 213 patients were reviewed. We included 104 Legion Prosthesis, 76 U2 Knee Prosthesis, 46 NexGen LPS-Flex Prosthesis, and 21 Vanguard Knee System products. Preoperative and postoperative PTS were measured via expanded lateral tibia radiographs. For postoperative PTS, the Legion group had significantly smaller slopes than the U2 Knee group and Vanguard group. However, there was no significant difference between the Legion and NexGen groups, and no significant difference among the NexGen, U2 Knee, and Vanguard groups. Multiple linear regression showed that the different tibial lengths and preoperative PTS had statistically significant effects on postoperative PTS. However, there were weak correlations between the tibial length and PTS, and between preoperative and postoperative PTS. For TKA, although the PTS is not completely consistent with the angle of the cutting block, using conventional tibial bone resection technology with different tibial cutting instrumentations provided by various manufacturers in TKA can obtain safe PTS.
