Previous hemodynamics studies in shoulder arthroplasty only evaluated Western population and mainly focused on risk factors of transfusion. However, Asians are relatively small, and have higher bleeding risk due to prothrombin-clotting-factor polymorphisms. Therefore, it is not appropriate to apply the results of previously studies directly to Asians. Authors compare different hemodynamics depending on the types of shoulder arthroplasties, and evaluate predictors for transfusion in Asian population. Total 212 shoulder arthroplasties (26 fracture hemiarthroplasty (fHA), 49 anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA), 132 reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA), and 5 revision surgery) from August 2004 to January 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographics, surgical factors and perioperative hemodynamic factors were compared for each type of arthroplasty. Multivariate regression analysis was conducted to determine predictors for transfusion.Introduction
Methods
There are limited previous findings detailed biomechanical properties following implantation with mechanical and kinematic alignment method in robotic total knee arthroplasty (TKA) during walking. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical and radiological outcomes between two groups and gait analysis of kinematic, and kinetic parameters during walking to identify difference between two alignment method in robotic total knee arthroplasty. Sixty patients were randomly assigned to undergo robotic-assisted TKA using either the mechanical (30 patients) or the kinematic (30 patients) alignment method. Clinical outcomes including varus and valgus laxities, ROM, HSS, KSS and WOMAC scores and radiological outcomes were evaluated. And ten age and gender matched patients of each group underwent gait analysis (Optic gait analysis system composed with 12 camera system and four force plate integrated) at minimum 5 years post-surgery. We evaluated parameters including knee varus moment and knee varus force, and find out the difference between two groups.Background
Methods
Total knee arthroplasty using navigation system is known to be more effective than conventional methods in achieving more accurate bone resection and neutral alignment. Mobile bearing is also known to reduce wear and automatically correct rotational mal-alignment of the tibia but the long-term follow-up results of more than 10 years are extremely rare. The purpose of this study is to investigate the results of clinical and radiologic long-term follow-up and complications of total knee arthroplasty using navigation and multi-directional mobile bearing. From 2003 to 2006, a total of 111 navigation TKAs using multi-directional mobile bearing design were carried out and reviewed retrospectively. TKAs were performed by two experienced surgeons at one institute. Of the 111 patients, 102 were women and 9 were men. The mean duration of follow-up was 11.4 ± 1.0 years (range, 10.1 to 14.08 years). Clinical outcomes were evaluated in terms of Knee Society Score, Hospital for Special Surgery score, Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) score, range of motion and complications. Long-term radiological outcomes and survival rates were evaluated at least 10 years. Average preoperative HSS score was 66.5 ± 9.8 and KSS pain and function score were 25.0 ± 11.8 and 44.5 ± 12.3, respectively. Scores improved to 94.1 ± 8.2, 46.6 ± 11.6 and 88.2 ± 14.6 at the last follow up, respectively. Mean preoperative WOMAC scores of 75.8
