Background: Medial pivot total knee arthroplasty aims to restore native knee kinematics through highly conforming medial tibiofemoral articulation with survival comparable to contemporary knee designs. The aim of this study was to report preliminary clinical results of medial pivot total knee arthroplasty in an Indian population.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 45 patients (average age, 62 years; 40 women and 5 men) with end-stage arthritis (Kellgren-Lawrence grade 4) operated with a medial pivot prosthesis was done. All patients were assessed using Knee Society Score (satisfaction, expectation, and functional scores) and Oxford Knee Score, and range of motion was recorded at the end of 5-year postoperative follow-up. In addition, all patients underwent standardized radiological assessment.
Results: At the final follow-up, patients reported significant improvement in mean Knee Society Score (satisfaction, expectation, and functional scores) and Oxford Knee Score (p < 0.05). The mean range of motion achieved at the end of 5 years ranged from 0° (extension) to 118.4° (further flexion). There was no evidence of loosening or osteolysis at a minimum follow-up of 5 years.
Conclusions: These results demonstrated satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes at 5 years after total knee arthroplasty with a medial pivot design, which may be related to better replication of natural knee kinematics with the medial pivot knee and inherent advantages of this design.
