Purpose : To identify the accuracy of postoperative implant alignment in minimally invasive surgery total knee arthroplasty (MIS-TKA), based on the degree of varus deformity.
Materials and Methods : The research examined 627 cases of MIS-TKA from November 2005 to December 2007. The cases were categorized according to the preoperative degree of varus deformity in the knee joint in order to compare the postoperative alignment of the implant: less than 5° varus (Group 1, 351 cases), 5° to less than 10° varus (Group 2, 189 cases), 10° to less than 15° varus (Group 3, 59 cases), and 15° varus or more (Group 4, 28 cases).
Results : On average, the alignment of the tibial implant was 0.2±1.4°, 0.1±1.3°, 0.1±1.6°, and 0.3±1.7° varus, and the tibiofemoral alignment was 5.2±1.9°, 4.7±1.9°, 4.9±1.9°, and 5.1±2.0° valgus for Groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively, in the preoperative stage, indicating no difference between the groups (p>0.05). With respect to the accuracy of the tibial implant alignment, 98.1%, 97.6%, 87.5%, and 86.7% of Groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively, had 0±3° varus angulation, demonstrating a reduced level of accuracy in Groups 3 and 4 (p<0.0001). There was no difference in terms of tibiofemoral alignment, with 83.9%, 82.9%, 85.4%, and 86.7% of each group, respectively, showing 6±3° valgus angulation (p>0.05).
Conclusion : Satisfactory component alignment was achieved in minimally invasive surgery in total knee arthroplasty, regardless of the degree of varus deformity.
