The key difference between treating grade I and II flexion contracture (Fig. 1A and B) is whether the PCL is kept or released, respectively. However, the decision to implant a PCR versus PS prosthesis is surgeon dependent as recent studies have shown that satisfactory results can be achieved with PCR implants in treating Grade II flexion ...

21 Αυγ 2006 · Flexion contractures present in varying degrees and involve contracture of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), posterior capsule, and hamstring musculature, along with the development of posterior femoral osteophytes. In primary TKA, most surgeons use the classic method of bone resection.
The goal of this study was to develop and validate a reference chart with clinically collected data, to inform monitoring of knee flexion active range of motion (AROM) following TKA surgery. Knee flexion is frequently assessed following TKA and is widely cited in postoperative protocols as a marker of progress throughout recovery [3, 15 ...
26 Μαρ 2024 · Intraoperative steps described to correct flexion contracture were: soft-tissue balancing (in posterior and medial compartments), distal femoral resection, flexion of the femoral component, and posterior condylar resection. However, no study has investigated these factors in a global model.
Fixed knee flexion contractures are common preoperatively and can make balancing more challenging for the surgeon. In addition, restoration of full passive knee extension is required at the time of total knee arthroplasty to achieve optimal function.
16 Μαΐ 2021 · The goal of the procedure is to relieve pain and improve function by restoring motion to a diseased joint. A variety of patient conditions, both systemic and local, can lead to bony destruction, soft-tissue contraction, and ultimately a fixed flexion deformity (FFD).
Abstract. This study examined the role that flexion contracture plays in postoperative outcomes after total knee arthroplasty using a retrospective database review.
