Summary

Customized cutting block and conventional cutting guide are both effective in improving accuracy and function of OA knee patients.

Detailed description

Customized cutting block and conventional cutting guide are both effective in improving accuracy and function of osteoarthritic knee patients.

Conditions

• Knee Osteoarthritis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Patient specific cutting guides	Patient specific cutting guides are custom-made for each patient based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Before surgery, MRI of the knee is done and used to create a cutting guide that is formed to the exact shape of the knee. The patient specific cutting guides have platforms that can be attached to the bone, so the rod does not need to be placed in the leg bone.
PROCEDURE	Standard knee cutting guides	Standard cutting guides use traditional instrumentation to determine knee implant positions. During surgery, a rod is placed in the leg bone and the cutting guide is attached to that rod.
