RESUMO
PURPOSE: The purpose of this meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy and imaging parameters of kinematic alignment (KA) and mechanical alignment (MA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to evaluate whether patients undergoing KA-TKA benefited more than those undergoing MA-TKA. METHODS: Studies comparing the efficacy of KA-TKA and MA-TKA were included after searching and screening in the database, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Database Library. A total of 1420 patients were enrolled in the study, with 736 MA-TKA and 738 KA-TKA. The primary outcomes were postoperative knee function scores including KSS series, WOMAC, KOOS and OKS. Secondary outcomes included the operative time, the length of hospital stay, knee extension/flexion angle, and some imaging parameters. The risk of bias for included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Collaborative risk-of-bias assessment tool or the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale(NOS). RESULTS: Sixteen studies were included in this meta-analysis (11 randomized controlled studies and 5 cohort studies). Primary outcomes: Knee Society score (KSS, MD = 8.36, 95% Cl: 0.83-15.90) and combined KSS (MD = 15.24, 95% CI: 5.41-25.07) were higher in KA-TKA than in MA-TKA, and other functional scores were not statistically significant in KA-TKA and MA-TKA, including knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS), Oxford knee score (OKS), Knee Function score (KFS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Secondary outcomes: KA-TKA resulted in smaller medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) and lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA) compared to MA-TKA. For other outcome measures, KA-TKA showed similar results compared to MA-TKA, including hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, extension/flexion angle, tibial component slope angle, joint line orientation angle (JLOA), the operation time, the length of hospital stay and ligament release rate. CONCLUSIONS: In our analysis results, patients undergoing KA-TKA benefit as much as patients undergoing MA-TKA. KA may be a viable reference in total knee replacement.

PURPOSE: Excessive femoral internal torsion is an important risk factor for patellar dislocation. The aim of the present study was to estimate the effect of derotational osteotomy of the femur on the tibial tubercle trochlear groove (TTTG) distance or patellar tilt angle (PTA) and to report our clinical outcomes of recurrent patellar dislocation after femoral derotation osteotomy. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 16 patients (17 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation treated by femoral derotation osteotomy in our department from January 2016 to February 2019 was carried out. The procedure was performed with supracondylar femoral derotation. A few procedures were combined with soft tissue procedures. Knee function was evaluated by using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Kujala score, Lysholm score, visual analog scale (VAS) score and patient satisfaction. Additionally, CT was used to assess the influence of femoral derotational osteotomy on TTTG distance and PTA. RESULTS: The average femoral antetorsion angle before surgery was 33° (SD ± 5°), and the intraoperative correction angle was 23° (SD ± 4°). A total of 17 femoral derotation osteotomies in 16 patients with patellar instability [11 females, 5 males, aged 20.8 (range 15-41) years] were included in the study. No dislocation occurred within 26.5 months after follow-up (range 12-49 months). The IKDC score, Kujala score, Lysholm score and VAS score significantly improved. The preoperative TTTG distance was 15.63 mm (SD ± 2.07 mm), and it was 14.69 mm (SD ± 1.78 mm) at the follow-up. The PTA decreased from 26.35° (SD ± 6.86°) to 11.65° (SD ± 2.85°). The powers of TTTG and PTA measurements are 0.78 and 1.00, respectively and all of these differences were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Derotational osteotomy of the femur for the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation can achieve good clinical results, including improved TTTG distance and PTA and improved knee function.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis to compare the effects of repair of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) and conservative treatment in patients with acute primary patellar dislocation (PPD). METHOD: The databases we used to search the studies included MEDILINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane registry of controlled clinical trials. Five randomized controlled studies comparing the effects of MPFL repair versus conservative treatment with 300 acute PPD patients were included in the present meta-analysis. Primary outcome was redislocation rate and secondary outcomes included Kujala score, percentage of excellent or good subjective opinion, Tegner activity score, and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS; pain, symptoms, and activities of daily living). RESULTS: The outcome of the Kujala score was statistically significant between the two treatments and indicated that MPFL repair had a higher Kujala score than conservative treatment in patients with acute PPD. There was no significant difference between the two treatments regarding the redislocation rate (p = 0.32), percentage of excellent or good subjective opinion (p = 0.15), Tegner activity score (p = 0.24), and KOOS (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Based on the available data, MPFL repair did not reduce the risk of redislocation nor did it produce any significantly better outcome based on the clinical manifestations, including anterior knee pain and knee activities. Only the Kujala score was improved by MPFL repair compared with conservative treatment.

BACKGROUND: Developmental factors were assumed to be the key factors that influenced the morphology of femoral trochlea. This study investigated the effects of insufficient patellar stress after birth on the morphological development of the femoral trochlea. Effects of insufficient patellar stress on femoral trochlea were investigated using surgical induced patellectomy and patellar dislocation in growing rat model. METHODS: In this study, two experimental groups and one sham group (SG) were established. Thirty-six Wistar rats (female, 28 days of age) were randomly assigned to three groups. The patellectomy group (PG), rats underwent the patellectomy in this group. The dislocation group (DG), rats underwent the surgery-induced patellar dislocation. Histological staining (Safranin-O and fast green), Micro-computed tomographic (Micro-CT) analysis in two experimental endpoints (3, 12 weeks postoperatively) were selected to evaluate morphological changes of the femoral trochlea. RESULTS: Articular cartilage on the trochlear sulcus was remodeled at 3 weeks after the surgery, and degenerated at 12 weeks through the histological staining. The femoral trochlear angle (FTA) did not show a significant difference at 3 week between the experimental groups and the sham group (PG vs SG P = 0.38, DG vs SG p = 0.05), but the FTA was significantly increased in experimental groups at 12 weeks(PG vs SG P = 0.001, DG vs SG p = 0.005). The Bone volume density (BV/TV), Trabecular number (Tb.N) under the trochlea groove were significantly reduced at 3 weeks postoperatively in the experimental groups (PG vs SG p = 0.001, DG vs SG p = 0.002). No significant difference was found in BV/TV and Tb. N among the three groups at 12 weeks postoperatively. CONCLUSION: Surgical induced patellectomy and patellar dislocation leads to the dysplastic trochlear sulcus in growing rats. Besides the bone morphology of trochlear sulcus, the articular cartilage and subchondral trabecula under the trochlear sulcus were remodeled early stage after the surgery.

BACKGROUND Increased femoral anteversion (FA) has been demonstrated in patients with recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD). However, the effect of FA on the patellar tilt angle (PTA) in patients with RPD is unclear. The aim of this study was to compare the FA and PTA between patients with RPD and healthy controls and to investigate the relationship between FA and PTA. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 30 knees with RPD and 30 knees from healthy volunteers were evaluated with computed tomography (CT). The FA and PTA were measured and compared between the RPD and control groups. Correlations between the two parameters were assessed in the two groups. RESULTS The FA was 27.7 ± 6.80 for the RPD group compared with 17.3±9.0° for the control group (P=0.000), and the PTA was 29.0±7.1° for the RPD group compared with 14.8±8.4° for the control group (P=0.000). A positive correlation was found between these two parameters in the RPD group (r=0.464; P=0.010). Further analysis showed a significant correlation with a FA of ≥25° in the RPD group (r=0.709; P=0.001), but no correlation was found with the control group. CONCLUSIONS A significantly higher FA and PTA were found in patients with RPD compared with controls. An increased PTA and a FA ≥25° were significantly associated with RPD. A derotational femoral osteotomy may be indicated to correct patellar tilt in patients with RPD when femoral anteversion is ≥25°.
