AbstractSingle-radius (SR) prostheses and multiple-radii (MR) prostheses have different theoretical advantages; however, few comparative studies have been reported. The aim of the study was to compare mid-term clinical, radiological, and survival outcomes of SR and MR posterior-stabilized prostheses in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Two hundred consecutive patients who underwent TKA between January 2012 and July 2013 were enrolled in the SR group (100 patients) and an MR group (100 patients), with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. Functional, radiological, satisfaction, and survival rates were evaluated. There was a significantly higher range of motion (ROM) in the SR group than in the MR group (flexion, 123.65 ± 10.12 degrees vs. 115.52 ± 10.03 degrees, p < 0.001). Quadriceps strength (3.05 ± 0.43 vs. 2.68 ± 0.58 kg, p = 0.025) and chair test results (80 [93.02%] vs. 69 [83.13%], p = 0.027) were better in the SR group than in the MR group. The SR group also had significantly less anterior knee pain (6 [6.98%] vs. 15 [18.07%], p < 0.05) and a better satisfaction rate than those in the MR group. No significant differences were observed in clinical scale scores such as Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), Knee Society Score (KSS), and Short-Form 12 (SF-12), radiological results in terms of component position and radiolucent lines. The Kaplan–Meier survival curve estimates at 5 years were not significantly different (96.91% [95% confidence interval [CI]: 93.5–99.5%] vs. 94.86% [95% CI: 90.6–98.6%], p = 0.4696). The SR prosthesis design was better than that of the MR in terms of ROM, reduced anterior knee pain, contributions to better recovery of the extension mechanism, and higher satisfaction rates. The SR had similar results in clinical scales such as HSS, KSS, SF-12, radiological, or survival results to MR prostheses. More accurate measurements and longer-term follow-up are required.

Introduction: Anterior knee pain following total knee arthroplasty is estimated to occur in 4-49% of patients. Some orthopedic surgeons use circumpatellar electrocautery (diathermy) to reduce the prevalence of postsurgical anterior knee pain; however, the extent of its use is unknown. Materials and Methodology: In April 2009, a postal questionnaire was sent to all 98 departments of orthopedic surgery in The Netherlands. The questions focused on the frequency of total knee arthroplasties, patellar resurfacing, and the use of circumpatellar electrocautery. Results: The response rate was 92%. A total of 18,876 TKAs, 2,096 unicompartmental knee arthroplasties, and 215 patellofemoral arthroplasties are performed yearly in The Netherlands by the responding orthopedic surgeons. Of the orthopedic surgeons performing TKA, 13% always use patellar resurfacing in total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis, 49% use selective patellar resurfacing, and 38% never use it. Fifty-six percent of orthopedic surgeons use circumpatellar electrocautery when not resurfacing the patella, and 32% use electrocautery when resurfacing the patella. Conclusion: There is no consensus among Dutch orthopedic surgeons on the use of patellar resurfacing or circumpatellar electrocautery in total knee replacement performed for osteoarthritis. A prospective clinical trial is currently underway to fully evaluate the effect of circumpatellar electrocautery on the prevalence of anterior knee pain following total knee arthroplasty.

Abstract Background Anterior knee pain (AKP) is the most common complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It is unclear which procedure of addressing AKP is preferable. Some data suggest patellar denervation (PD) provides effective AKP prevention. The purpose was to assess the effectiveness and safety of PD in primary TKA.Methods A meta-analysis was performed of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) from inception to March 26, 2020, using PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library. Study-specific RR and MD were aggregated using random or fixed effects models. The outcomes were incidences of AKP, PS (patellar scores), VAS (visual analogue scale), ROM (range of motion), KSS knee (American Knee Society knee scores), KSS function (American Knee Society function scores), incidence of complications and revisions.Results Ten RCTs involving 1196 knees were included. The meta-analysis showed no significant in PD group on the incidence of AKP (RR = 0.64; 95% CI 0.37, 1.11; p = 0.11) with moderate heterogeneity (P < 0.01, I2 = 84%). Our results indicated PD had a significantly better VAS (MD = − 0.25; 95% CI -0.41, -0.09; p < 0.01), ROM (MD = 7.68; 95% CI 0.34, 15.20; p = 0.04) and PS (MD = 0.91; 95% CI 0.36, 1.46; p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference no matter in KSS knee, KSS function, complications or revisions.Conclusions This meta-analysis showed that no difference in AKP between PD and NPD in patients undergoing non-resurfaced TKA. PD could improve clinical outcome in VAS, post-operative ROM and PS.
