However, few studies concerning the association between failure of ACL reconstruction （ACLR） and PTS have been published. The objective of this study was to explore the association between the failure of ACLR and PTS at a minimum of two years follow-up. Methods Two hundred and thirty eight eligible patients from June 2009 to October 2010 were identified from our database. A total of 20 failure cases of ACLR and 20 randomly selected controls were included in this retrospective study. The demographic data and the results of manual maximum side-to-side difference with KT-1000 arthrometer at 30°of knee flexion and pivot-shift test before the ACLR and at the final follow-up were collected. The medial and lateral PTSs were measured using the magnetic resonance imaging （MRI） scan, based on Hudek＇s measurement. A comparison of PTS between the two groups was performed. Results The overall failure rate of the present study was 8.4%. Of the 40 participants, the mean medial PTS was 4.1°±3.2°and the mean lateral PTS was 4.6°±2.6°. The medial PTS of the ACLR failure group was significantly steeper than the control group （3.5°±2.5° vs. 6.1°±2.1°, P=0.000）. Similarly, the lateral PTS of the ACLR failure group was significantly steeper than the control group （2.9°±2.1 °vs. 5.5°±3.0°, P=0.006）. For medial PTS ≥5°, the odds ratio of ACLR failure was 6.8 （P=0.007）; for lateral PTS ≥5°, the odds ratio of ACLR failure was 10.8 （P=0.000）. Conclusion Both medial and lateral PTS were significantly steeper in failures of ACLR than the control group. Medial or lateral PTS ≥5° was a new risk factor of ACLR failure.展开更多

This study attempts to quantify the normal posterior tibial slope (PTS) angle pre-operatively and post-operatively in osteoarthritic patients after using a conventional extramedullary tibial resection guide to assess its effectiveness. Methods: Forty-nine primary cementless total knee replacements in 34 osteoarthritic patients were measured radiographically pre-operatively and one year post-operatively to determine the PTS and its effect on range of motion. Lateral X-rays, using the anterior cortical line of the tibia, were employed for all measurements. Results: Pre-operative PTS measured 11.83˚ (range 5˚ - 18˚), while post-operative PTS of implanted tibial components measured 11.30o (range 4˚ - 18˚). The pre-operative range of motion of 112˚ (range 30˚ to 135˚) was improved to 119˚ (range 90˚ to 135˚) post-operatively after 1 year. Conclusions: Anterior tibial shaft referencing using a conventional extramedullary tibial resection guide provides an easy and convenient method for reproducing the anatomical PTS during TKR. This methodology provided improvement in average range of motion from 112˚ pre-operatively to 119˚ post-operatively at one year.展开更多
