The accuracy of extramedullary guides for tibial component placement in total knee arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT: Anteroposterior radiographs that included the whole tibia were taken before and after 75 total knee arthroplasties in 48 patients. The same tibial extra-medullary alignment guide system was used in every knee. The average tibial component alignment was 0.4 (SD 2.5, range -4.9 to 6.4) degrees of valgus post-operatively. 59 tibial components (78.7%) had a tibial cut within 3 degrees from being perpendicular to the mechanical axis, ten were too valgus (13.3%) and six were too varus (8%). The chance of the tibial components becoming too varus was higher if there was lateral tibial bowing, compared with no tibial bowing (p=0.048). A smaller lateral width of the leg increased the chance of the tibial components becoming too valgus (p=0.047).

Expression data from total knee arthroplasty patients

Project description:Ischaemic preconditioning is a method of protecting tissue against ischaemia-reperfusion injury. It is an innate protective mechanism that increases a tissue's tolerance to prolonged ischaemia when it is first subjected to short burst of ischaemia and reperfusion. It is thought to provide this protection by increasing the tissue's tolerance to ischaemia, therby reducing oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in the preconditioned tissue. We used microarrays to investigate the genomic response induced by ischaemic preconditioning in muscle biopsies taken from the operative leg of total knee arthroplasty patients in order to gain insight into the ischaemic preconditioning mechanism. Patients undergoing primary knee arthroplasty were randomised to control and treatment (ischaemic preconditioning) groups. Patients in the treatment group received a preconditioning stimulus immediately prior to surgery. The ischaemic preconditioning stimulus consisted of three five-minute periods of tourniquet insufflation on the lower operative limb, interrupted by five minute periods of reperfusion. All patients had a tourniquet applied to the lower limb after the administration of spinal anaesthesia, as per normal protocol for knee arthroplasty surgery. Muscle biopsies were taken from the quadriceps muscle of the operative knee at the immediate onset of surgery (T0) and at 1 hour into surgery (T1). Total RNA was extracted from biospies of four control and four treatment patients and hybridised to the Affymetrix Human U133 2.0 chip.
