Summary

This study aims to design a patient-specific instrumentation to be used in total knee arthroplasty and evaluate its accuracy of femoral component rotation and intramedullary guide so as to explore its clinical effects.

Detailed description

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most universal and effective means for treating terminal stage osteoarthritis (OA) of knee. With the development of three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology in the medical domain, the application of patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) in arthroplasty has become more common. The aim of this study was to design a PSI to achieve appropriate femoral resection and accurate component rotation for a successful TKA, and to explore its clinical effects.

Conditions

• Osteoarthritis of the Knee
