Upper partial fibulectomy improves knee biomechanics and function and decreases knee pain of osteoarthritis: A pilot and biomechanical study.


ABSTRACT: To investigate the change in clinical outcomes and biomechanical properties of the knee in response to upper partial fibulectomy. Sixteen patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (KOA) underwent upper partial fibulectomy. Visual analog scale (VAS) pain, the hospital for special surgery knee score (HSS), hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle (measured in the frontal plane), and flexion/extension range of motion of the knee were assessed before and up to 6?months after surgery. Patients were evaluated for gait parameters and overall peak knee adduction moment (KAM). Patient-specific finite element knee models were developed to investigate changes in load in response to fibulectomy. Both VAS pain and HSS score were significantly improved (P?
