ABSTRACT
Inverse restricted kinematic alignment (irKA) was modified from restricted kinematic alignment for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This prospective single-center study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of irKA-TKA on all knee subtypes classified by Asia specific (Huang's) phenotypes. A total of 96 knees that underwent irKA-TKA at one hospital between January 2018 and June 2020 were included, with 15 knees classified in Type 1, nine in Type 2, 15 in Type 3, 47 in Type 4, and 10 in Type 5 by Huang's phenotypes. Outcomes were knee alignment measures and patient-reported satisfaction evaluated by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) and traditional Chinese version of the Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12). Follow-up was one year. Type 4 knee was most significantly corrected in all angles by irKA-TKA, followed by Type 2 and 3 knees. Type 5 and 1 knee were only significantly corrected in some angles. The correlation between FJS-12 and WOMAC was good at 6 months (Pearson correlation coefficient (r) = 0.74) and moderate at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 12 months during follow-up (r = 0.37~0.47). FJS-12 and WOMAC displayed comparable hip-knee-ankle angle cut-off value (4.71° vs. 6.20°), sensitivity (70.49% vs. 67.19%), specificity (84.00% vs. 85.71%), and Youden index (54.49% vs. 52.90%) in prediction of good prognosis. In conclusion, irKA-TKA corrects knee alignment in all knee types with increasing satisfaction for one-year follow-up. Knees with presurgical varus deformity are most recommended for irKA-TKA. Both presurgical scores of the traditional Chinese version of FJS-12 and WOMAC predict the prognosis of irKA-TKA.
