The Results of Total Knee Replacement in Knees with Severe Varus Deformity

Abstract

The purpose of the study is comparing the clinical and the radiographic results of total knee replacement (TKR) performed on severe varus knee deformity using a smaller and lateralized tibial component and TKR on patients with no evident angular deformity as a control group. We investigated a series of TKR patients who were operated between February 2003 and January 2008 in our clinic with the study group consisted of 23 knees of 15 patients with preoperative varus angular deformity greater than 20°, and the control group consisted of 182 knees of 156 patients with less than 10° varus deformity and less than 15º flexion contracture. A statistically significant difference was determined between pre-and postoperative knee scores in the severe varus group (p<0.001). A statistically significant difference was determined between pre-and postoperative knee evaluation scores in the control group also (p<0.001). According to these results, due to the advantages brought by this technique in achieving an acceptable mechanical axis space in knees with severe varus deformity, and meeting the clinical and functional expectations of the patients, total knee arthroplasty can be performed successfully.
