Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiologic results after high flexion Lospa (Corentec Inc.) and Scorpio NRG (Stryker Inc.) total knee arthroplasty.
Materials and Methods: We prospectively compared 205 knees in 128 patients who underwent arthroplasty using Lospa (group A) and 164 knees in 102 patients who underwent arthroplasty using Scorpio NRG (group B) from September 2010 to March 2012 at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Sun General Hospital (Daejeon, Korea). Mean follow-up period was 23 months in group A and 24 months in group B. The radiologic analysis included the change of mechanical axis deviation and femoro-tibial angle, implant position (α, β, γ, δ), and patellar tilt. The clinical results were evaluated according to hospital for special surgery (HSS), knee society score (KSS), and range of motion.
Results: Mechanical axis deviations were change in varus from 34.8 mm to 2.6 mm (p=0.02) in group A, and change in varus from 34.3 mm to 3.1 mm (p=0.04) in group B; no statistically significant difference was observed between them (p=0.13). Femoro-tibial angles were varus 4.3o to valgus 6.6o (p=0.02) in group A, and varus 4.4o to valgus 6.5o (p=0.03) in group B; no significant difference was observed between them (p=0.25). No significant difference in implant position was observed between the two groups (p=0.25 in α, p=0.17 in β, p=0.12 in γ, p=0.17 in δ). Mean HSS improved from 48.5 to 93.6 (p=0.02) in group A, and from 41.4 to 94.4 (p=0.01) in group B.
Conclusion: Lospa total knee arthroplasty showed excellent early radiologic, clinical results and no statistically significant difference in the results was observed between Lospa and Scorpio NRG.
