Total knee replacement using a medial parapatellar approach and lateral soft tissue release effectively corrects valgus knee deformity. This technique provides excellent clinical outcomes and improved range of motion for patients.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomechanical engineering

Context:

  • Valgus knee deformity presents significant challenges in total knee arthroplasty.
  • Accurate correction of coronal alignment is crucial for long-term implant survival and patient function.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a specific surgical technique for total knee replacement in patients with valgus knee deformity.
  • To assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes of this approach.

Summary:

  • Eighty-seven total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) were performed using a medial parapatellar approach, standard osteotomy, and lateral soft tissue release with posterior stabilized implants.
  • Mean follow-up was 33.8 months, demonstrating significant improvements in range of motion (ROM) and Knee Society Score (KSS).
  • The average tibial-femur angle improved from 21.59 degrees valgus to 8.7 degrees valgus, indicating successful coronal alignment correction.

Impact:

  • This surgical strategy effectively corrects fixed valgus deformities in primary total knee replacement.
  • The technique yields excellent clinical results, including improved joint function and stability.
