Abstract Background To explore whether previous arthroscopic knee surgery affects future total knee arthroplasty (TKA) results or not. Methods A total of 56 patients with the previous arthroscopic treatment on one knee underwent subsequent bilateral total knee arthroplasty in our hospital from September 2012 to July 2018. Data on each patient were collected in regards to changes in postoperative clinical and functional scores, various other scores, as well as postoperative functional recovery and complications. We defined the knees with a previous arthroscopic history as group A, and the counter side as group B. The Knee Society clinical score, functional scores, range of motion (ROM), finger joint size (FJS), visual analogue scale (VAS) scores were assessed before and after surgery. Using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test to test the normality of continuous variables, and the chi-square test to compare the rate of reoperation and complications between two groups. For all statistical comparisons, P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results There were no statistically significance differences found in postoperative Knee Society clinical scores and functional scores between group A and group B, as well as in ROM, FJS, VAS scores and local complications. Conclusion There were no statistically significant differences found in postoperative functional recovery and complications in patients, who underwent total knee arthroplasty with previous knee arthroscopy.

Alternative Alignment

Abstract Background: A drive to improve functional outcomes for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has led to alternative alignment being used. Functional alignment (FA) uses intraoperative soft tissue tension to determine the optimal position of the prosthesis within the patients soft tissue envelope. Angular limits for bone resections are followed to prevent long term prosthesis failure. This study will use the aid of robotic assistance to plan and implement the final prosthesis position. This method has yet to be compared to the traditional mechanically aligned (MA) knee in a randomised trial. Methods: A blinded randomised control trial with 100 patients will be undertaken via Perth Hip and Knee clinic. Fifty patients will undergo a MA TKA and fifty will undergo a FA TKA. Both alignment techniques will be balanced via computer assisted navigation to assess prosthetic gaps, being achieved via the initial bony resection and further soft tissue releases as required to achieve satisfactory balance. The primary outcome will be the forgotten joint score (FJS) two years after surgery, with secondary outcomes being other patient reported outcome measures, clinical functional assessment, radiographic position and complications. Other data that will be collected will be patient demography (Sex, Age, level of activity) and medical information (grade of knee injury, any other relevant medical information). The linear statistical model will be fitted to the response (FJS), including all the other variables as covariates. Discussion: Many surgeons are utilising alternative alignment techniques with a goal of achieving better functional outcomes for their patients. Currently MA TKA remains the gold standard with good outcomes and excellent longevity. There is no published RCTs comparing FA to MA yet and only two registered studies are planned or currently in progress. This study utilizes a FA technique which differs from the two studies. This study will help determine if FA TKA has superior functional results for patients.Trial registration: This trial has been registered with the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ANZCTR) http://www.anzctr.org.au: U1111-1257-2291, registered 25th Jan 2021. It is also listed on www.clinicaltrials.gov: NCT04748510
