Brief Summary

Total joint replacement is an efficacious treatment for osteoarthritis of hips and knees. Both total knee replacement (TKR) and total hip replacements (THR) have excellent implant survivorship. However, patient satisfaction is lower in TKR than THR. A possible cause of the discrepancy is the unnatural knee kinematics after TKR. Various implant designs have been developed to solve the problem. However, most of the designs are based on experimental data and not on in vivo kinematics. In this study, we will analyze the in vivo kinematics of the Global Medacta Knee Sphere (GMK Sphere) implant and compare it with a well documented design and implant (NexGen Cruciate Retaining (CR), Zimmer Biomet). We assume our study will contribute to the development of more satisfying knee implants.

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • \. Patients with knee osteoarthritis

You may not qualify if:

  • Preoperative severe deformity (Femoro-tibial angle \< 175°or \> 190° measured on a full-length leg image at weight bearing)
  • Preoperative flexion contracture more than 15°
  • Preoperative limited range of motion under anesthetics (less than 110°)
  • Less than 50 or more than 75 years of age at the time of surgery
  • Use of walking aids because of other musculoskeletal and neuromuscular problems
  • Preoperative diagnosis other than osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, tumors)
  • Revision arthroplasty
  • Obesity with BMI\>35
  • Impaired collateral ligaments
  • Postoperative KOOS score less than 80
  • Malposition of femoral and tibial implants (Internally rotated or more han 10° externally rotated implants will be excluded. The rotation of femoral implant is measured on postoperative CT images in reference to surgical epicondylar line. The rotation of tibial implant is determined according to Berger's measurement)
  • Limb surgery within 3 months before the analysis
  • Postoperative revision surgery due to deep wound infection
