BACKGROUND: The postoperative varus/valgus stability assessment in stress X-rays has been established as an evaluation index. However, it is performed by the two-dimensional (2D) method rather than the three-dimensional (3D) method. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify the precision and reproducibility of measuring varus/valgus stress X-rays three-dimensionally and to examine varus/valgus stability under anesthesia in imageless robotic assisted total knee arthroplasty (rTKA). METHODS: This prospective study analyzed 52 consecutive rTKAs (five males, 67 ± 5.3 years; 47 females, 74 ± 5.9 years). Postoperative varus/valgus stress X-rays in knee extension under anesthesia at manual maximum stress were three-dimensionally assessed by 2D-3D image matching technique using the 3D bone and component models. Varus/valgus angle between components (VV angle) in no stress, valgus stress, varus stress, medial joint opening (MJO), and lateral joint opening (LJO) were evaluated, clarifying this method's precision and reproducibility and valgus/varus stability. RESULTS: All parameters' precision and reproducibility had <1° mean differences and high intra- and inter-class correlation coefficients. Bland-Altman plots showed no fixed and proportional bias. Non-stress VV angle, valgus VV angle, varus VV angle, MJO, and LJO were 3.6 ± 1.2°, 1.0 ± 1.4°, 7.1 ± 1.9°, 1.5 ± 1.0 mm, and 2.8 ± 2.7 mm, respectively. CONCLUSION: This prospective study demonstrated that (1) the three-dimensional measurement method provided sufficient precision and reproducibility, and (2) the rTKAs could achieve good postoperative varus/valgus stability with a small standard deviation.

Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has been becoming popular for the treatment of musculotendinous injuries among athletes. However, for individual and practical variations, clinical success is hardly predictable. To overcome this difficulty, we have been exploring possible criterion candidates for monitoring its clinical effectiveness. In this study, we focused on sex-based differences in young elite athletes and compared the biochemical compositions of their PRP. Leukocyte-rich PRP (L-PRP) was manually prepared from blood samples collected from male professional soccer players (mPSPs) (n = 25) and female college athletes (fCAs) (n = 36). Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB), transforming-growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1), platelet factor-4 (PF4), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) were quantified using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The levels of PDGF-BB, TGFβ1, and PF4 in L-PRP were significantly higher in mPSPs than in fCAs. Conversely, IL-1β and IL-1RA were detected at significantly and slightly higher levels, respectively, in fCAs than in mPSPs. Our findings suggest that, even though L-PRP from fCAs may have lower potential to induce cell growth and differentiation than that of mPSPs, due to the latter's higher capacity to control inflammation, it does not necessarily imply that PRP treatment in fCAs is less effective. Thus, these cytokine levels should be checked before PRP therapy.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify factors related to the external rotation of the femur during knee flexion. METHODS: Three-dimensional (3D) digital models of the femur and tibia were reconstructed from computed tomography images of 41 healthy Japanese subjects. Thirteen parameters related to femoral and tibial morphology and alignment of the lower extremities were evaluated, including the inclination angle of the posterior lateral and medial femoral condyles, the ratio of the medial and lateral posterior condyle radii approximated as spheres, the spherical condylar angle, the posterior condylar angle, the medial and lateral posterior tibial slope, the difference of medial and lateral posterior tibial slope, the tibiofemoral rotation angle, the 3D femorotibial angle, the 3D hip-knee-ankle angle, and the passing point of the weight-bearing line (medial-lateral and anterior-posterior). The rotation angle of the femur relative to the tibia during squatting was investigated using a 3D to 2D image matching technique and the relationships with the13 parameters were determined. RESULTS: The femur externally rotated substantially up to 20° of knee flexion (9.2° ± 3.7°) and gently rotated after 20° of knee flexion (12.8° ± 6.2°). The external rotation angle at 20°-120° of knee flexion correlated with the spherical condylar angle, the tibiofemoral rotation angle and the inclination angle of the posterior medial condyles (correlation coefficient; 0.506, 0.364, 0.337, respectively). CONCLUSION: The parameter that was most related to the external rotation of the femur during knee flexion was the spherical condylar angle. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

BACKGROUND: The examination of femoral cortical bone thickness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been notably limited in prior research. We aimed to compare femoral cortical thickness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and healthy controls and to investigate the association between femoral cortical thickness and clinical parameters within the RA group. METHODS: Forty-four patients (58 limbs) with RA who underwent total knee arthroplasty were enrolled. Preoperative computed tomography images of the lower limbs were analyzed. The femoral cortex was divided into the proximal, central, and distal diaphysis regions and further into the anterior, posterior, medial, and lateral regions. The divisions were measured using Stradwin® software and standardized by femoral length. Femoral cortical thickness was compared between RA and healthy control (n = 25) groups. Correlation analyses between standardized cortical thickness and disease parameters were performed in the RA group. RESULTS: The RA group had significantly lower standardized femoral cortical thickness at the anterior and medial distal diaphysis than healthy controls. Standardized proximal lateral and central lateral in the RA group were significantly larger than those in the healthy control groups. Standardized femoral cortical thickness was significantly correlated with bone mineral density (BMD) in 11 areas, except the posterior central diaphysis, and with body mass index in 8 areas, except the central posterior, distal lateral, distal anterior, and distal medial diaphysis. CONCLUSIONS: Femoral cortical thinning was noted in patients with RA complicated with destructive knee, particularly at the anterior and medial distal diaphysis. Femoral cortical thickness was significantly correlated with BMD and body mass index (BMI); thus, patients with RA and low BMD and BMI should be cared for to prevent fragility fractures.

PURPOSE: The longitudinal changes in alignment and structure, including the joint line and cortical bone thickness (CBT) of the femur and tibia, and knee phenotype in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) remain unknown. The aim of this retrospective study was to clarify the longitudinal changes in matched healthy subjects. METHODS: The follow-up Matsudai Knee Osteoarthritis Survey was administered between 23 and 28 years. This study included 285 healthy knees from 235 females with an average age of 53 ± 6 years at baseline. The non-OA individuals, with an average age of 79 ± 4 years, were divided into three groups at baseline according to their follow-up radiographic results [the non-OA (n = 52), early OA (n = 131), and advanced OA groups (n = 102)]. Changes in alignment, joint line, CBT, and knee phenotype were assessed at baseline and at follow-up using standing anteroposterior radiographs. RESULTS: This study showed significant varus changes in the alignment (p < 0.001) and tibial and femoral joint line parameters (p < 0.05) in the OA group. Decreased CBT and increased mediolateral CBT ratios were observed in all groups (p < 0.001). The knee phenotypes in the OA groups were changed to varus angles, especially in the alignment and tibial joint line. CONCLUSIONS: The longitudinal changes of knee phenotypes in alignment and structure (CBT and joint line) from baseline to follow-up were shown in the OA groups. In addition, alignment and tibial structural factors at baseline are useful in predicting the incidence of knee OA in daily practice. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: III.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been increasingly used in sports medicine owing to its various advantages. The purpose of our project was to standardize the parameters before performing large-scale clinical trials in the near future to precisely evaluate individual PRP quality. To examine the effects of regular exercise on PRP quality, this study focused on young female athletes, who have been relatively less studied. Blood samples were obtained from female college athletes (n = 35) and ordinary healthy adults (n = 30), which were considered as controls, and leukocyte-rich PRP (L-PRP) was prepared manually. Body composition indices were determined using a bathroom weight scale equipped with an impedance meter. Growth factors and cytokines were quantified using ELISA kits. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) and Transforming-growth factors β1 (TGFβ1) levels (per platelet) in L-PRP were significantly lower in female athletes than in controls. In contrast, Interleukin-1β and Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) levels (per platelet and L-PRP) in L-PRP were significantly higher in athletes, and this difference was more prominent in IL-1RA. These findings suggest that L-PRP from athletes may facilitate the inflammatory phase of the healing process by regulating the pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory balance. These chemical compositions can be adopted as "must-check" parameters to characterize individual PRP preparations prior to clinical trials.

Platelet polyphosphate (polyP) can be conveniently quantified by exploiting a recent methodological breakthrough using 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). However, the preservation of these biological samples has not yet been standardized. In a preliminary study, potential protocols were screened, while accepted protocols were further tested in this study. Pure-platelet-rich plasma (P-PRP) samples and washed platelet suspensions were prepared using blood obtained from non-smoking healthy male donors and were fixed with ThromboFix for 20-24 h at 4 °C. Mass polyP levels were determined using a fluorometer at wavelengths of 425 and 525 nm. Platelet polyP levels were normalized to platelet counts. Statistical analyses were performed using non-parametric tests. Platelet polyP levels significantly decreased by 20% after 7 days in the platelet suspension maintained under fixed conditions at 4 °C (control). In contrast, the platelet polyP levels in both the P-PRP and washed platelet suspensions were maintained without a significant reduction for up to 6 weeks by removing ThromboFix after fixation and subsequent freezing in pure water at -80 °C. Fluorometric polyP quantification often interferes with the low specificity of DAPI binding and the wavelength used. Our validated protocols will enable long-term preservation and high-throughput polyP quantification and can be applied to relatively large cohort studies.

BACKGROUND: Instability can lead to poor functional results after tricompartmental total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We identified a group of patients who appeared to have anteroposterior (AP) instability in early-range flexion (ie, 20 to 30° range) associated with anterior knee pain and feelings of instability. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical results in terms of stability and anterior knee pain after revision TKA with a medial-pivot implant and to assess the effect of the implant positioning used in the revision technique. METHODS: There were 45 patients (45 knees) evaluated retrospectively to assess standing lower extremity alignment and functional results by generating a knee stability score after revision TKA with medial pivot implant design. RESULTS: Revision TKA using the medial-pivot TKA lowered the joint line by 3.6 millimeters (mm) (P < .001) and positioned the tibia anteriorly by 3.5 mm (P < .001) on radiographic measurements as compared with results after primary TKA. Moreover, medial pivot revision TKA improved AP stability by a 56-point change in score (P < .001). CONCLUSION: Revision TKA using a medial pivot design improved AP stability and anterior knee pain after failed primary procedures.

Background: Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is ambiguously thought to be more effective in elite athletes than in sedentary patients, although the possible importance of recipient responsiveness remains poorly understood. To address this issue, along with the well-known PRP quality, in this initial study, we evaluated two candidate biomarkers: body composition indices (BCIs), which reflect systemic physical conditions, and resting platelet ATP levels, which reflect platelet energy expenditure and the mass of energy generation units. Methods: In this cross-sectional cohort study, blood samples were collected from male professional soccer players (PSPs) on a local professional team during the off-season and platelet ATP levels were quantified using an ATP luminescence assay kit. BCIs were measured using the body mass impedance method. Age-matched male sedentary participants were used as the controls. Results: Among the BCIs, the body mass index, basal metabolic rate (BMR), and skeletal muscle weight levels were higher in the PSPs than in the controls. The platelet ATP levels in the PSPs group were significantly lower than those in the control group. The correlation between BMR and platelet ATP levels was moderately negative in the control group, but weakly positive in the PSPs group. Conclusion: Owing to regular physical exercise, PSPs had higher BMR levels and lower platelet ATP levels without a significant mutual correlation compared to sedentary controls. This study did not indicate the influence of these biomarkers on the success of PRP therapy but provided evidence for a better understanding of PRP therapy, particularly for elite athletes.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyze the dynamic kinematics of the mobile medial pivot-type total knee arthroplasty (MMPTKA) using the three-dimensional (3D)-to-2D registration technique. METHODS: Cadaveric knees from five humans were used. Computed tomography of the lower limb and preoperative 3D planning for MMPTKA were performed. After performing TKA, passive motion of the knee was observed from a fully extended position to maximum flexion using a flat panel detector. The following parameters were determined: (1) anteroposterior (AP) translations of the medial and lateral most distal points (estimated contact point) of the femoral component, (2) rotational femoral component's X-axis (FCX) angle, and (3) rotational insert angle. Paired t-tests were used to analyze differences in the AP translation between the medial and lateral most distal points of the femoral component as well as differences in the changes in the rotational angle between the FCX and X-axis of the insert on the tibial component's axial plane. RESULTS: The AP translations of the femoral component's medial and lateral most distal points were 8.4 ± 2.5 and 13.6 ± 3.3 mm, respectively (p = 0.001). The rotational angles of the FCX and insert were 10.7° ± 4.9° external rotation and 8.9° ± 4.1° internal rotation, respectively (p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: The posterior translation of the lateral side of the femoral component was greater than that of the medial in all cases. Hence, a medial pivot pattern was identified. The femoral component exhibited external rotation throughout knee flexion in all subjects, whereas the mobile insert exhibited internal rotation (opposite pattern relative to the femoral component). This study provides valuable kinematical information of MMPTKA that has not been clear yet.

PURPOSE: New concept of functional knee phenotypes in Caucasians demonstrated the variability of coronal alignment in knee osteoarthritis (OA), but it remains unclear in Japanese. This study aims to analyze the knee phenotype in advanced varus knee OA for Japanese. In addition, the ethnical difference is discussed. METHODS: This study analyzed 879 knees involving 186 males (74 years) and 693 females (74 years). The knee phenotypes were assessed by the definition in Hirschmann's group. The hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), femoral mechanical angle (FMA) and tibial mechanical angle (TMA) were assessed in CT data according to the coordinate system. The neutral angle was 180° in HKA, 93° in FMA and 87° in TMA. The smaller angle means larger varus angles. RESULTS: The average angle (males, females) of the HKA (170.9 ± 4.3°, 169.4 ± 5.0°), FMA (91.5 ± 2.7°, 90.6 ± 3.0°), and TMA (82.4 ± 3.6°, 82.7 ± 3.7°) demonstrated varus angles with the sex difference (HKA, p < 0.001; FMA, p = 0.001). The phenotypes were 73 types in males and 150 types in females with a mild correlation between the HKA and the FMA or TMA. In 61.3% of males and 52.2% of females, the TMA was greater than the FMA, while the FMA was greater in 16.7% of males and 23.1% of females. CONCLUSION: There were many functional knee phenotypes with sex differences for advanced varus knee OA in Japanese, showing ethnical differences of larger varus angles compared to those for Caucasians in the previous report. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

BACKGROUND: Regenerative therapy using platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a rich source of growth factors, has become popular in orthopedic sports medicine. Elite athletes prefer PRP therapy for their injured muscles and tendons primarily to avoid the possible risks of surgical treatment. However, the clinical effectiveness of PRP therapy in elite athletes compared to that in non-athletes remains unknown. Therefore, to investigate the effectiveness of PRP therapy in professional athletes (pro-athletes), we focused on the quality of PRP preparations and compared the levels of bioactive molecules between pro-athletes and non-athletes. METHODS: PRP was prepared from healthy, non-smoking male professional soccer players (pro-athletes) (n = 22) and non-athletes (VEGF: n = 34, others: n = 38). The levels of TGFβ1, PDGF-BB, VEGF, and PF4 were determined using ELISA kits. Polyphosphate was probed with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole and monitored using a fluorometer. The body composition of the donors was determined using a bathroom weighing scale. RESULTS: The levels of TGFβ1 and VEGF were significantly lower in pro-athletes than in non-athletes, whereas PF4 levels were significantly higher in pro-athletes. No significant difference was found in PDGF-BB levels between these groups. Biomolecule levels were not correlated with polyphosphate levels. CONCLUSION: TGFβ1, VEGF, and PDGF-BB levels in pro-athletes were not higher than those in non-athletes. These findings suggest that growth factor levels in PRP may not be a predominant determinant of the clinical effectiveness of PRP therapy in pro-athletes. Increased PF4 levels in pro-athletes suggest an immunological function of PRP that may positively influence tissue regeneration.

Platelets produce inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) upon activation to stimulate blood coagulation. Some researchers have linked polyP metabolism to ATP production, although the metabolic linkage is yet to be elucidated. We found evidence for this possibility in our previous study on professional athletes (versus non-athletes), and proposed that the regulatory mechanism might be different for these two groups. To explore this aspect further, we investigated the effects of modulated ATP production on polyP levels. Blood samples were obtained from Japanese healthy, non-athletes in the presence of acid-citrate-dextrose. The platelets in the plasma were treated with oligomycin, rotenone, and GlutaMAX to modulate ATP production. PolyP level was quantified fluorometrically and visualized using 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. Correlations between polyP and ATP or NADH were then calculated. Contrary to the hypothesis, inhibitors of ATP production increased polyP levels, whereas amino acid supplementation produced the opposite effect. In general, however, polyP levels were positively correlated with ATP levels and negatively correlated with NADH levels. Since platelets are metabolically active, they exhibit high levels of ATP turnover rate. Therefore, these findings suggest that ATP may be involved in polyP production in the resting platelets of non-athletes.

BACKGROUND: Closed-wedge high tibial osteotomy (CWHTO) with a fibular osteotomy (FO) causes medial joint space widening in the knee. However, the effect of FO on the joint space width remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine the effect of FO on the knee in HTO. METHODS: A compression load test was performed on two amputated human limbs under four conditions: (1) normal (without any osteotomy), (2) open-wedge HTO (OWHTO), (3) OWHTO with FO, and (4) CWHTO. The contact area of the femoral and tibial cartilages and the medial and lateral joint space widths in each condition were evaluated using a motion capture system with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. RESULTS: The contact area increased on the lateral side after OWHTO, which increased more on the lateral side with a concomitant decrease on the medial side in both subjects when FO was added to OWHTO. An increase in the medial joint space width and a decrease on the lateral side were seen in both OWHTO with FO and CWHTO. CONCLUSIONS: The contact area and joint space widths are affected by the FO, and the effect is more pronounced than the way of HTO (OWHTO or CWHTO).

BACKGROUND: During gait, healthy knee coronal kinematics of each bony axis and lower extremity alignment are important because they could be useful as reference data for several surgeries and provide clarification of the etiology of diseases around the knee in healthy participants; however, it remains unknown. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to clarify the kinematics of lower extremity alignment and the bony axes relative to the ground during gait, focused on the coronal plane, in healthy individuals by applying our unique three-dimensional (3D) motion analysis. METHODS: The study included 21 healthy individuals, including 9 healthy females and 12 healthy males with an average age of 36 ± 17 years. Knee kinematics were calculated in a gait analysis by combining the data from a motion-capture system and a 3D lower-extremity alignment assessment system on biplanar long-leg radiographs by using a 3D-2D registration technique. The main kinematic parameters were the dynamic position change relative to the ground, applying the femoral anatomical axis (FAA), tibial anatomical axis (TAA), and dynamic alignment in the coronal plane during the stance phase of gait. RESULTS: The average changes in FAA, TAA, and dynamic varus alignment were 3.7° ± 1.2°, 3.5° ± 0.8°, and 3.0° ± 1.2°, respectively. The TAA tilted laterally during the loading response and a plateau area appeared afterwards; the FAA gradually inclined laterally until the terminal stance phase, and the dynamic alignment showed varus angular change during the loading response. CONCLUSIONS: The tibia and femur were found to change approximately 2-5° of the position of the bony axes relative to the ground. In terms of clinical relevance, our findings can be used to clarify the etiology of diseases around the knee joint and as reference data for surgeries.

PURPOSE: This study aims to (1) measure the kinematics of lower extremity alignment and the bony position relative to the ground during walking, focusing on the coronal plane, and (2) determine the correlation between the kinematics and coronal inclination of the medial tibial plateau (coronal inclination) for healthy and varus knee osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: In this study, 43 women (non-OA, 9 knees; early OA, 13 knees; advanced OA, 21 knees; mean age 58 ± 17 years) were examined. The knee phenotypes in varus knee OA were varied. Three-dimensional (3D) knee kinematics were calculated in gait analysis by combining the motion capture system and the 3D lower extremity alignment assessment system via biplanar long-leg X-rays, applying the 3D-2D registration technique. The main parameters were the kinematics of the bony axes relative to the ground in the coronal plane during the stance phase of the gait. The differences in overall kinematics were assessed using repeated measures ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc test. The association between kinematic parameters and coronal inclination was evaluated by multiple linear regression after univariate analysis. RESULTS: The tibia tilted laterally during the loading response, and a plateau area subsequently appeared until the terminal stance phase, whereas the femur slowly tilted laterally until the terminal stance phase. The dynamic alignment showed a relatively large varus angular change during the loading response in all groups. The trend of motion was similar among all groups (p = n.s.), although to varying degrees. The coronal inclination was the more dominant factor than the Kellgren-Lawrence (K-L) grades (β =  - 0.423, p = 0.005) when the change in dynamic alignment was determined. CONCLUSIONS: The TAA plateau area after the loading response implies that the tibial articular surface may become horizontal. The femur slowly tilted laterally until the terminal stance phase in response to the tibial motion. Consequently, the dynamic alignment showed a varus angular change, in which coronal MCT was more involved than K-L grades.

BACKGROUND: After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the femur tends to be located posteriorly under weight-bearing (WB) conditions, and a paradoxical femoral anterior motion occurs, leading to joint instability. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to clarify factors which affect the postoperative femoral anteroposterior position relative to the tibia under WB conditions (A-P position) in medial pivot (MP) TKA. METHODS: Among 126 knees (81 women) with primary TKA using MP prosthesis for varus osteoarthritic knees, 70 knees had cruciate-retaining inserts (CR) with the reduced conformity and 56 knees had cruciate-substituting inserts (CS) with the full conformity. Using the three-dimensional (3D) assessment system, the associations between the A-P position and the factors including pre- and postoperative lower extremity alignment, component positions, and posterior femoral condylar offset (PCO), were assessed regarding the type of inserts. RESULTS: Significant correlations were seen between the A-P position and posterior tibial slope (PTS), medial PCO, and lateral PCO. Regarding the difference between the two inserts, the PTS, medial PCO, and lateral PCO significantly correlated with the A-P position in the CR, but only the PTS correlated in the CS. CONCLUSIONS: The increased PTS and decreased PCO were the dominant factors for the A-P position in MP TKA.

BACKGROUND: The quadriceps femoris may be a reliable reference to proper alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We previously showed the quadriceps vector (QV) to be the most parallel to the spherical axis (SA-center hip to center medial condyle) for healthy knees. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the QV is the most parallel to the SA in knees with varus osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: CT imaging for 35 varus OA and 40 healthy Japanese knees was used to construct 3D models of the femur, patella and each quadriceps component for each subject. The QV was calculated using principal component analysis for direction and was compared with the relationship of the QV to the measurement axes of the lower extremity, including the anatomical, mechanical and spherical axes. RESULTS: The direction of the QV for the OA knee group was different from that for the healthy knee group in 3D space (medio-lateral direction: women, p = 0.532, men, p = 0.540; antero-posterior direction: women, p = 0.141, men, p < 0.001). However, the angle of the QV in relation to measurement axes in the coronal plane was closest to the SA in both groups (around 1°), with no difference between the groups (women, p = 0.382, men, p = 0.943). CONCLUSION: In the coronal plane, the SA most closely approximates the QV for both healthy and OA knees. The more posterior QV position in the 3D space may affect the patellofemoral joint.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the post-operative three-dimensional (3D) femoral and tibial component positions in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by the same co-ordinates' system as for pre-operative planning and to compare it with a two-dimensional (2D) evaluation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty-five primary TKAs due to osteoarthritis were included. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the femur and tibia was obtained and pre-operative 3D planning was performed. Then, 3D and 2D post-operative evaluations of the component positions were performed. KneeCAS (LEXI, Inc., Tokyo, Japan), a lower-extremity alignment assessment system, was used for the 3D post-operative evaluation. Standard short-knee radiographs were used for the 2D post-operative evaluation. Differences between the pre-operative planning and post-operative coronal and sagittal alignment of components were investigated and compared with the results of the 3D and 2D evaluations. RESULTS: According to the 3D evaluation, the difference between the pre-operative planning and actual post-operative sagittal alignment of the femoral component and the coronal and sagittal alignments of the tibial component were 2.6° ± 1.8°, 2.2° ± 1.8° and 3.2° ± 2.4°, respectively. Using the 2D evaluation, they were 1.9° ± 1.5°, 1.3° ± 1.2° and 1.8° ± 1.4°, making the difference in 3D evaluation significantly higher (p = 0.013, = 0.003 and < 0.001). For the sagittal alignment of the femoral component and the coronal and sagittal alignment of the tibial component, the outlier (> ± 3°) ratio for the 3D evaluation was also significantly higher than that of the 2D evaluation (p < 0.001, = 0.009 and < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The difference between the pre-operative planning and post-operative component alignment in the 3D evaluation is significantly higher than that of the 2D, even if the same cases have been evaluated. Two-dimensional evaluation may mask or underestimate the post-operative implant malposition. Three-dimensional evaluation using the same co-ordinates' system as for pre-operative planning is necessary to accurately evaluate the post-operative component position.

BACKGROUND: The association between the toe angle and bony rotational factors is critical to explain issues related to the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to clarify the association between the toe angle and each of the femoral and tibial transvers direction relative to gait direction, rotational knee alignment, and bony torsional deformity for the subjects with knee OA. METHODS: This study evaluated 58 knees in 24 healthy elderly (72 ± 5 years) and 34 varus knee OA (72 ± 6 years). A three-dimensional (3D) assessment system was used on 3D models and biplanar long-leg radiographs with the toe angle reflecting gait direction, applying a 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The main parameters on the transverse plane were: (1) toe angle, (2) transverse direction of the femur and tibia relative to the gait direction, (3) femoral neck anteversion, (4) condylar twist angle, (5) tibial torsion, and (6) rotational knee alignment. RESULTS: The alignment parameters, except for the tibial transverse direction, were different between healthy and osteoarthritic knees. In knee OA, the femoral neck anteversion - femoral transverse direction (p = 0.001), femoral transverse direction - tibial transverse direction (p < 0.001), and tibial transverse direction - toe angle (p < 0.001) were associated. CONCLUSIONS: The osteoarthritic knees showed that the femoral neck anteversion was associated with the femoral transverse direction, which determined the tibial transverse direction by adjusting the rotational knee alignment, leading to the toe angle.

BACKGROUND: Assessment of three-dimensional (3D) femorotibial alignment is essential for successful knee osteoarthritis treatment in the elderly. The complex morphology of the posterior tibial slope (PTS) might have an influence on sagittal and rotational alignment and the positional relationship between the femur and tibia in the anterior-posterior (AP) direction under weight-bearing conditions. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to clarify the association between the PTS and 3D femorotibial alignment under weight-bearing conditions in healthy Japanese elderly individuals. METHODS: We investigated the 3D femorotibial alignment of 110 lower extremities of 55 healthy individuals (26 women, 29 men, mean age: 70 ± 6 years). Using our previously reported 3D-to-2D image registration technique, we evaluated the 3D hip-knee-ankle angle (3DHKA) in the sagittal plane, rotational alignment, and the distance between the femoral and tibial origins in the AP direction (tibial AP position) as femorotibial alignment parameters under weight-bearing conditions. We assessed the medial and lateral PTS and their angular difference (PTS difference) as PTS parameters. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed using PTS parameters and other possible confounders (age, sex, height, and weight) as the independent variables and femorotibial alignment parameters as the dependent variable. RESULTS: Weight (𝛽 = 0.393, p < 0.001) and lateral PTS (𝛽 = 0.298, p < 0.001) were the predictors associated with 3DHKA in the sagittal plane. Lateral PTS (𝛽 = 0.304, p = 0.001) was the only predictor associated with the tibial AP position. Sex (𝛽 = -0.282, p = 0.002) and PTS difference (𝛽 = -0.231, p = 0.012) were associated with rotational alignment. CONCLUSIONS: We found that a steeper lateral PTS resulted in a more flexed knee and anterior tibia. The PTS difference was positively correlated with tibial external rotation. Our data could be used as the standard reference for realignment surgery to ensure PTS is appropriately maintained.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to analyze the surface morphology of the distal femur in three dimensions for the healthy elderly, based on the concept that the surgical epicondylar axis (SEA) is a better surrogate for the flexion-extension axis of the knee joint. METHODS: We studied 77 healthy elderly volunteers (40 males and 37 females; age, 68 ± 6 years). The medial and lateral contact lines were calculated three-dimensionally, using the highest points of the medial and lateral condyles in 201 cross-sectional planes around the SEA (every 1°, -60° (hyperextension) to 140° (flexion)). A piecewise fitting function consisting of two linear segments was applied to detect the inflection point of the constant radii in the sagittal plane. The main assessment parameters were knee flexion angle at the inflection point of the radius (inflection angle), mean radius from 0° to the inflection angle (constant radius), and coronal tilt angle of the contact line. RESULTS: The inflection angles, constant radii, and coronal tilt angles were 78.2 ± 8.6°, 26.1 ± 2.3 mm, and -0.6 ± 3.2° and 65.6 ± 9.2°, 23.9 ± 2.2 mm, and 6.2 ± 3.2° in the medial and lateral condyles, respectively (all, P < 0.001). The coronal alignment was 88.7 ± 2.2°. CONCLUSIONS: The medial and lateral femoral condyles showed asymmetrical morphologies with the almost 'constant' radius of sagittal curvature from 0° to around 80° and 65° of knee flexion, respectively.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to identify the predictive factors for postoperative osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) in juvenile and adolescent knees with discoid lateral meniscus (DLM). METHODS: In total, 242 patients with symptomatic DLM who underwent surgery were identified. Inclusion criteria were set as follows: (1) age ≤ 17 years with an open growth plate, (2) follow-up magnetic resonance imaging, and (3) absence of preoperative OCD. Consequently, 52 patients were retrospectively investigated. Average age during surgery, body mass index (BMI), and follow-up duration were 12 years [95% confidence interval (CI) 11-13], 19.2 kg/m2 (95% CI 18.4-20.1), and 27.3 months (95% CI 20.9-33.7), respectively. Age, sex, sports activities, BMI, symptomatic OCD in other joints, postoperative rehabilitation, preoperative shift of DLM by Ahn's classification, surgical procedures (saucerization alone or with stabilization, and subtotal meniscectomy), and postoperative meniscal width were analyzed as possible predictive factors. RESULTS: Postoperatively, 42 patients without OCD and 10 with OCD were observed. In univariate analysis, younger age [odds ratio (OR) 1.5; p = 0.003], subtotal meniscectomy (OR 6.3; p = 0.027), and shorter meniscal width (OR 2.7; p = 0.005) were predictive factors for postoperative OCD. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that younger age (OR 1.6; p = 0.009) and shorter meniscal width (OR 1.5; p = 0.003) were predictive factors. CONCLUSIONS: To prevent postoperative OCD after DLM surgeries, achieving stabilization with adequate meniscal width is necessary for juvenile knees. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

BACKGROUND: Identifying the time course of rotational knee alignment is crucial for elucidating the etiology in knee osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to propose new rotational indices for calculating the change in relative rotational angles between the femur and tibia in standing anteroposterior (AP) radiographs. METHODS: Forty healthy elderly volunteers (20 women and 20 men; mean age, 70 ± 6 years) were assessed. The evaluation parameters were as follows: (1) femoral rotational index: the distance between the sphere center of the medial posterior femoral condyle and the lateral edge of the patella, and (2) tibial rotational index: the distance between the medial eminence of the tibia and the lateral edge of the fibula head. The indices were standardized by the diameter of the sphere of the medial posterior femoral condyle. This study (1) identified the relationship between changes in rotational indices and the simulated rotational knee angles in the standing position, (2) proposed a regression equation for the change in relative rotational angles between the femur and tibia in standing AP radiographs, and (3) verified the accuracy of the regression equation. RESULTS: The rotational indices increased in direct proportion to simulated rotational knee angles (femoral index: r > 0.9,p < 0.0001; tibial index: r > 0.9, p < 0.0001). Based on the results, the regression equation with the accuracy of 0.45 ± 0.26° was determined. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed regression equations can potentially predict the change in relative rotational angles between the femur and tibia in a pair of standing AP radiographs taken at different dates in longitudinal studies.

PURPOSE: Accurate assessment of the locations of patellar avulsion fractures in acute patellar dislocations is clinically relevant for decision making for treatment. The study aim was to classify the locations of patellar avulsion fractures with a focus on the ligament attachments of medial stabilizing structures. METHODS: Out of 131 first-time acute traumatic patellar dislocations, 61 patients had patellar fractures. Subsequently, 10 patients with isolated osteochondral fractures of the articular surface in the patella were excluded. Finally, 51 patients (34 females and 17 males, average age: 18.5 years, 95% CI 16.1-20.9) were included in the study cohort. Based on the locations of the patellar attachment, the patients were divided into three groups: the superior group [medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) attachment], inferior group [medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL)/medial patellomeniscal ligament (MPML) attachment], and mixed group. RESULTS: In the patellar avulsion group (51 patients), the superior group, mixed group, and inferior group contained 8/51 (16%), 12/51 (24%), and 31/51 (61%) patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that 84% of the patellar avulsion fractures were located in the inferomedial patellar border, which consisted of MPTL/MPML attachments that were clearly different from the true "MPFL" attachment at the superomedial patellar border. In terms of the clinical relevance, the acute surgical repair of MPTL/MPML attachments in the inferomedial patellar border may not sufficiently control the patella if optimal management of the MPFL is not performed.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to three-dimensionally analyse the size and shape of the femoral posterior condyles of the normal knee. METHODS: A total of 62 healthy Japanese volunteers (37 males and 25 females) providing a sample of 124 normal knee joints, who had no knee-related symptoms and no history of major trauma, underwent computed tomography scans of the bilateral femur and tibia. Three-dimensional digital models of the femur were constructed from computed tomography data using visualisation and modelling software. The following parameters were evaluated: (1) the radii of the posterior condyles approximated to spheres and (2) the inclination angle of the posterior condyles in the coronal plane of the femoral coordinate system. RESULTS: The radii of the medial and lateral condyles approximated to spheres were 17.0 ± 1.6 and 17.1 ± 1.8 mm, respectively and were not different. The inclination angles of the medial and lateral condyles in the coronal plane were - 0.6° ± 4.6° and 9.7° ± 5.7°, respectively. The medial condyle was almost vertical, whereas the lateral one was medially tilted. CONCLUSIONS: This study found an asymmetrical inclination between medial and lateral condyles. This may be related to the asymmetrical motion of the knee, which is known as medial pivot motion. This finding provides valuable morphological information and may be useful for implant designs for total knee arthroplasty. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

PURPOSE: Whether the inclined articular surface on the medial proximal tibia and the external knee adduction moment (KAM) correlate remains unclear. The hypothesis was that a steeper inclined articular surface correlated with a larger KAM in advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: A total of 44 females (non-OA, 9 knees; early OA, 14 knees; advanced OA, 21 knees; mean age, 58 ± 16 years) were examined. Three-dimensional (3D) assessment was used on biplanar long-leg radiographs and 3D bone models using a 3D to 2D image registration technique. The approximation plane in the proximal tibia was determined using the least-square method. The joint moments were mathematically calculated in a gait analysis, applying a motion capture system and force plates. The main evaluation parameters were the femorotibial angle (FTA), the coronal inclination of the approximation plane in the medial proximal tibia (coronal inclination), and internal knee joint moments. The KAM means the external moments balanced with the internal knee abduction moments. RESULTS: The advanced OA showed a larger internal abduction moment (p = 0.017) at the loading response than the other groups. The larger FTA and steeper coronal inclination correlated with the larger internal abduction moment (FTA, p < 0.001; coronal inclination, p = 0.003) at the loading response. CONCLUSIONS: As the clinical relevance, the association among the coronal inclination of the medial proximal tibia, lower extremity alignment, and KAM is one of the key factors to help better understand the etiology of knee OA.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the age- and sex-related characteristics in cortical thickness of the tibial diaphysis between non-obese healthy young and elderly subjects as reference data. METHODS: The study investigated 31 young subjects (12 men and 19 women; mean age, 25 ± 8 years) and 54 elderly subjects (29 men and 25 women; mean age, 70 ± 6 years). Three-dimensional estimated cortical thickness of the tibial diaphysis was automatically calculated for 5000-9000 measurement points using the high-resolution cortical thickness measurement from clinical computed tomography data. In 12 assessment regions created by combining three heights (proximal, central, and distal diaphysis) and four areas of the axial plane at 90° (medial, anterior, lateral, and posterior areas) in the tibial coordinate system, the standardized thickness was assessed using the tibial length. RESULTS: As structural characteristics, there were no differences in the medial and lateral thicknesses, while the anterior thickness was greater than the posterior thickness in all groups. The sex-related difference was not shown. As an age-related difference, elderly subjects showed greater or lesser cortical thickness than the young subjects, depending on the regions of the tibia. CONCLUSIONS: Cortical thickness was different depending on sex, age, and regions in the tibia. The results of this study are of clinical relevance as reference points to clarify the causes of various pathological conditions for diseases. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 3.

PURPOSE: To test the hypothesis that an inclined articular surface on the medial proximal tibia is aligned more parallel to the ground in three-dimensional (3D) space under weight-bearing (WB) conditions (parallel phenomenon) than under non-WB (NWB) conditions in healthy and varus osteoarthritic knees. METHODS: We examined 55 healthy knees (26 women, 29 men; mean age, 70 ± 6 years) and 108 varus osteoarthritic knees (66 women, 16 men; mean age, 74 ± 7 years). For the evaluation under WB conditions, a 3D assessment system was used on biplanar long-leg radiographs and 3D bone models using a 3D-to-2D image registration technique. In addition, the least square method was used to determine the approximation plane. The angles between the normal vector for the approximation plane of an articular surface on the medial proximal tibia and each axis of the tibial or world coordinate system were calculated. RESULTS: Morphologically, the inclination of the approximation plane was steeper in osteoarthritic knees than in healthy knees (p < 0.0001). The approximation plane was aligned more parallel to the ground under WB conditions than under NWB conditions in healthy (p < 0.0001) and osteoarthritic knees (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The parallel phenomenon in the medial proximal tibia was confirmed for healthy and varus osteoarthritic knees. The medial proximal tibia plays an important role in the parallel phenomenon, assumingly associated with varus alignment and varus thrust. The inclination of the medial proximal tibia may become a new parameter for imaging investigations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

PURPOSE: The study aim was to clarify the risk factors for postoperative meniscal extrusion in a middle portion in juvenile and adolescent knees with DLM. METHODS: Forty-six patients with symptomatic DLM who underwent surgery were retrospectively assessed. Inclusion criteria were set as follows: (1) aged ≤ 17 years with an open growth plate, (2) preoperative and postoperative follow-up MRI, and 3) reshaping surgeries comprising of saucerization alone or with meniscal repair. Average (95%CI) age during surgery, body mass index (BMI), and follow-up duration were 12 years (11-13), 19.9 kg/m2 (18.7-21.0), and 26.4 months (19.5-33.3), respectively. Age, sex, sports activities, BMI, postoperative rehabilitation, preoperative shift of DLM by Ahn's classification, surgical procedures, postoperative meniscal width of all portions, and meniscal healing were analyzed. RESULTS: Postoperatively, eight knees in the no-extrusion group and 38 knees in the extrusion group were observed. In the univariate logistic regression analysis, shorter meniscal width in a middle portion (OR = 1.580, p = 0.006), shorter minimum width of all portions (OR = 1.674, p = 0.024), and meniscal healing (OR = 0.160, p = 0.028) were the risk factors for meniscal extrusion in a middle portion. Multiple logistic regression analysis demonstrated that shorter meniscal width in a middle portion was the risk factor. CONCLUSIONS: As the clinical relevance, to prevent postoperative meniscal extrusion of the middle portion with DLM, surgeons are necessary to pay attention to maintain the adequate meniscal width for juvenile and adolescent knees.

INTRODUCTION: Cortical thickness of the femoral diaphysis is assumed to be a preferred parameter in the assessment of the structural adaptation by mechanical use and biological factors. This study aimed to investigate the age- and sex-specific characteristics in cortical thickness of the femoral diaphysis between young and elderly non-obese people. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study investigated 34 young subjects (21 men and 13 women; mean age: 27 ± 8 years) and 52 elderly subjects (29 men and 23 women; mean age: 70 ± 6 years). Three-dimensional (3D) cortical thickness of the femoral diaphysis was automatically calculated for 5000-8000 measurement points using the high-resolution cortical thickness measurement from clinical CT data. In 12 assessment regions created by combining three heights (proximal, central, and distal diaphysis) and four areas of the axial plane at 90° (medial, anterior, lateral, and posterior areas) in the femoral coordinate system, the standardized thickness was assessed using the femoral length. RESULTS: As per the trends, (1) there were no differences in medial and lateral thicknesses, while the posterior thickness was greater than the anterior thickness, (2) the thickness in men was higher than that in women, and (3) the thickness in young subjects was higher than that in elderly subjects. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study are of clinical relevance as reference points to clarify the causes of various pathological conditions for diseases of the lower extremities.

BACKGROUND: In first-time acute traumatic patellar dislocations, numerous anatomic and clinical factors are complicatedly associated and should be comprehensively considered for the optimal management of conservative or surgical intervention. The purpose of this study was to establish a scoring system, using a concept that is not complicated and easily used in clinic. METHODS: Of 131 first-time acute traumatic patellar dislocations, 81 patients (51 females, 30 males) with an average age of 19.6 (95%CI, 17.5-21.6) years and an average follow-up duration of 17.1 (95% CI, 12.3-21.9) months, who underwent conservative treatment after first-time dislocations, were reviewed. Based on the odds ratios applying logistic regression analysis, the scoring system was established. RESULTS: The scoring system (total: 10 points) had simple composition of age <20 (2 points), sports injury (1 points), hemarthrosis (1 points), and image findings of a bony fragment (3 points), lateral shift of the patella (1 points), and trochlear dysplasia (2 points). A threshold score of 6.5 was determined using the area under receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.893 (p < 0.0001). In logistic regression analysis, a score of ≥7 was shown to be a dominant factor for recurrence (OR = 27.1, p < 0.0001). Furthermore, the association between the score and recurrence risk was as follows: a score of ≤4 = low risk (1/21 cases, 5%); a score of 5-7 = medium risk (13/27 cases, 48%); a score of ≥8 = high risk (30/33 cases, 91%). CONCLUSIONS: Based on the simple scoring system, patients who scored ≥8 were considered suitable for surgical treatment because of the high rate of recurrence, whereas those who scored ≤4 were considered suitable for conservative treatment because of the low rate of recurrence.

BACKGROUND: The inclination of the medial compartment of the proximal tibia (MCT) is assumed to be a critical factor for varus alignment in advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study was aimed at investigating; (1) whether the inclination of MCT is aligned parallel to the ground under weight-bearing (WB) conditions; (2) whether this is associated with the change in alignment and the relative position between the bones; and (3) whether the tibia or femur mainly contributes to the changes. METHODS: We examined 102 knees (84 women, 18 men; mean 75 years). A three-dimensional (3D) assessment system was applied on biplanar whole lower extremity radiographies using 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The evaluation parameters were 1) MCT angle, 2) femorotibial angle (FTA), 3) medial-lateral femoral location to the tibia (M-L femoral location), 4) WB line passing point, and 5) tibial position to WB line (tibial position) and 6) femoral postion to WB line (femoral position). Each parameter was evaluated in non-WB and WB conditions, and the differences (Δ-parameters). RESULTS: MCT angle in the world coordinate system was larger than that in the tibial coordinate system (p <  0.0001). ΔMCT angle was correlated with ΔFTA (p = 0.002) and ΔM-L femoral location (p = 0.004). The tibial position was the more dominant factor for ΔMCT angle (p = 0.001), ΔFTA (p <  0.0001), and ΔWB line passing point (p <  0.0001) . CONCLUSIONS: The inclination in MCT was aligned parallel to the ground under WB conditions (tibial parallel phenomenon). The parallel phenomenon was associated with the change of alignment and the relative position between the bones in the coronal plane. These phenomena were produced mainly by the tibia, not the femur.

The bilateral shoulder pain of an 81-year-old Japanese woman due to falls persisted despite celecoxib treatment, and plain X-rays later showed bilateral collapsed humeral heads. After ruling out osteoarthritis, infectious arthritis, crystal-induced arthritis, neuropathic arthropathy, and osteonecrosis, we diagnosed bilateral shoulder joint rapidly destructive arthrosis (RDA). Lumbar bone mineral density showed very low T-score (-4.1). Primary osteoporosis was observed. Histology of biopsied humeral head indicated the features of fracture healing process: callus formation and osteoclasts without empty lacunae. Her history thus included an insufficiency fracture due to severe osteoporosis. Bilateral humeral head replacement was performed; her shoulder joint function improved. This case is extremely rare in that RDA was caused by simultaneous bilateral shoulder joint collapse within a very short time, with minimal or low mechanical stress and severe osteoporosis.

PURPOSE: Abnormalities of lower extremity alignment (LEA) in recurrent patella dislocation (RPD) have been studied mostly by two-dimensional (2D) procedures leaving three-dimensional (3D) factors unknown. This study aimed to three-dimensionally examine risk factors for RPD in lower extremity alignment under the weight-bearing conditions. METHODS: The alignment of 21 limbs in 15 RPD subjects was compared to the alignment of 24 limbs of 12 healthy young control subjects by an our previously reported 2D-3D image-matching technique. The sagittal, coronal, and transverse alignment in full extension as well as the torsional position of the femur (anteversion) and tibia (tibial torsion) under weight-bearing standing conditions were assessed by our previously reported 3D technique. The correlations between lower extremity alignment and RPD were assessed using multiple logistic regression analysis. The difference of lower extremity alignment in RPD between under the weight-bearing conditions and under the non-weight-bearing conditions was assessed. RESULTS: In the sagittal and coronal planes, there was no relationship (statistically or by clinically important difference) between lower extremity alignment angle and RPD. However, in the transverse plane, increased external tibial rotation [odds ratio (OR) 1.819; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.282-2.581], increased femoral anteversion (OR 1.183; 95% CI 1.029-1.360), and increased external tibial torsion (OR 0.880; 95% CI 0.782-0.991) were all correlated with RPD. The tibia was more rotated relative to femur at the knee joint in the RPD group under the weight-bearing conditions compared to under the non-weight-bearing conditions (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that during weight-bearing, alignment parameters in the transverse plane related to the risk of RPD, while in the sagittal and coronal plane alignment parameters did not correlate with RPD. The clinical importance of this study is that the 3D measurements more directly, precisely, and sensitively detect rotational parameters associated with RPD and hence predict risk of RPD.

BACKGROUND: Humans support their bodies exclusively by vertical balance in bipedal locomotion, and the body, especially the lower extremity, generally changes with age. Sex and body constitution are assumed to be associated with lower extremity alignment, but this association remains to be elucidated. This study sought to clarify this association in healthy, elderly, non-obese humans in a Japanese population. METHODS: The present study investigated 55 healthy volunteers (mean age: 70 ± 6 years). A 3D extremity alignment system was applied under weight-bearing conditions on biplane long lower extremities X-rays using a 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The evaluation parameters included 3D hip-knee-ankle angle (3DHKA) alignment in the coronal (coronal alignment) and sagittal planes (sagittal alignment) and rotational alignment between the femur and tibia. The influences of sex and body constitution on all the alignment were analyzed. RESULTS: Multiple linear regression analysis with the dependent variable of each alignment showed that sex was the dominant factor for coronal and rotational alignment (coronal: p <  0.01; rotational: p <  0.01), and body weight was the dominant factor for sagittal alignment (p <  0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The association of sex with coronal and rotational alignment and of body constitution with sagittal alignment were proved in healthy, elderly, non-obese humans in a Japanese population. This finding can lead to further understanding of the etiology of many diseases and age-related changes.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the factors affecting postoperative rotational limb alignment of the tibia relative to the femur. We hypothesized that not only component positions but also several intrinsic factors were associated with postoperative rotational limb alignment. METHODS: This study included 99 knees (90 women and 9 men) with a mean age of 77 ± 6 years. A three-dimensional (3D) assessment system was applied under weight-bearing conditions to biplanar long-leg radiographs using 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The evaluation parameters were (1) component position; (2) preoperative and postoperative coronal, sagittal, and rotational limb alignment; (3) preoperative bony deformity, including femoral torsion, condylar twist angle, and tibial torsion; and (4) preoperative and postoperative range of motion (ROM). RESULTS: In multiple linear regression analysis using a stepwise procedure, postoperative rotational limb alignment was associated with the following: (1) rotation of the component position (tibia: β = 0.371, P < .0001; femur: β = -0.327, P < .0001), (2) preoperative rotational limb alignment (β = 0.253, P = .001), (3) postoperative flexion angle (β = 0.195, P = .007), and (4) tibial torsion (β = 0.193, P = .010). CONCLUSION: In addition to component positions, the intrinsic factors, such as preoperative rotational limb alignment, ROM, and tibial torsion, affected postoperative rotational limb alignment. On a premise of correct component positions, the intrinsic factors that can be controlled by surgeons should be taken care. In particular, ROM is necessary to be improved within the possible range to acquire better postoperative rotational limb alignment.

BACKGROUND: Studies on the epidemiology of pediatric fractures have been scarce in recent years although fractures are very common in childhood. Boys have a higher incidence of fractures than girls. Currently, societal trends have seemed to influence the difference in activity patterns between boys and girls, but the sex difference regarding longitudinal changes in fracture incidence is not well known. METHODS: We analyzed the school accident report in Niigata city, Japan and compared the incidence of fractures in elementary and junior high school students and the sex-related risk ratio between two 9-year periods separated by 20 years from their start and end points (1999-2007 and 1979-1987). RESULTS: The study included 383,273 students from 1999 to 2007 and 561,109 students from 1979 to 1987. Comparing these periods, the fracture incidence increased significantly by 2.4 times in boys vs 2.1 times in girls from elementary school and by 2.2 times in boys vs 2.9 times in girls from junior high school (all p ＜ 0.001). The sex-related risk ratio of boys to girls increased significantly from 1.47 to 1.64 in elementary school students. In contrast, it decreased significantly from 3.29 to 2.52 in junior high school students and the change was markedly significant because of the drastic increase in fracture incidence in junior high school girls. CONCLUSIONS: The reasons proposed for the increase in schoolchildren's fractures were an improvement in diagnosis owing to social background and increased participation in sports activities despite the general decline in children's physical fitness and exercise ability. In junior high school girls, in particular, there was an increase in fracture risk due to increased participation in sports activities.

INTRODUCTION: Posterior tibial slope (PTS) and sagittal alignment are important factors in the etiology of knee osteoarthritis and knee surgery. Clinically, sagittal alignment, which indicates flexion contracture of the knee, contributes to knee function in weight-bearing (WB) conditions. PTS and sagittal alignment under WB conditions in varus osteoarthritic knees are presumed to affect each other, but their association remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to clarify the association. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In total, 140 osteoarthritic varus knees were investigated. Under WB conditions, a three-dimensional (3D) alignment assessment system was applied via biplanar long-leg X-rays, using 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The evaluation parameters were as follows: 1) 3D mechanical flexion angle (3DMFA) in regards to sagittal alignment, 2) passing point in the WB line (PP), and 3) medial and lateral PTS. RESULTS: The medial and lateral PTS showed a positive correlation with 3DMFA and PP, respectively (medial PTS-3DMFA, p = 0.001; medial PTS-PP, p < 0.0001; lateral PTS-3DMFA, p < 0.0001; lateral PTS-PP, p = 0.002). The flexion contracture group with 3DMFA >5° demonstrated greater PTS than non-flexion contracture group (medial PTS, p = 0.006; lateral PTS, p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS: Both medial and lateral PTS were correlated with sagittal alignment under WB conditions and were larger in the flexion contracture group. This finding can explain the function to take the load articular surface parallel to the ground for holding the balance in WB conditions in the sagittal plane for osteoarthritic knees. Moreover, surgeons may be required to decrease the PTS during knee arthroplasty to restore full extension in knees of patients with fixed flexion contracture.

INTRODUCTION: Instability after total knee arthroplasty is a critical problem. The purpose of this study was to clarify the stability of implanted knees during walking by comparing differences in dynamic instability during knee acceleration between individuals with or without previously experienced subjective instability, as measured by self-reported questionnaire. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined 92 knees with medial pivot implants. Mean patient age and follow-up duration were 78.4 years and 32.8 months, respectively. An accelerometer was used to investigate the accelerations along three axes; that is, vertical (VT), mediolateral (ML), and anteroposterior (AP) directions in 3-dimensional (3D) space. The analysis in the stance phase and gait cycle was performed by: (1) root mean square (RMS) values of acceleration and (2) frequency domain analysis using fast Fourier transformation (FFT). A self-reported knee instability score was used for the subjective feeling of instability. RESULTS: A total of 76 knees did not feel unstable (group 0), but 16 knees felt unstable (group 1) in patients during activities of daily living. Regarding the RMS, there were no differences in each direction between the groups. For FFT, the cumulative amplitude in the frequency < 30 Hz also showed no significant differences in all directions between the groups during the stance phase (VT, p = 0.335; ML, p = 0.219; AP, p = 0.523) or gait cycle (VT, p = 0.077; ML, p = 0.082; AP, p = 0.499). DISCUSSION: Gait analysis based on the acceleration data showed that there were no between-group differences in objective dynamic instability during acceleration of the knee, with or without reports of previously experienced subjective instability, as assessed by the self-reported questionnaire.

PURPOSE: Flexion instability following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common indication of early revision. The association between the objective anteroposterior (AP) laxity direction in mid-range flexion and the subjective healing of instability remains unclear; thus, this study aimed to clarify this association. METHODS: In this study, 110 knees (74 females, 92 knees; 16 males, 18 knees) with medial pivot implants were examined with a median age of 79 (range 60-92) years for a median follow-up duration of 22 (range 6-125) months. AP laxity was measured using a KT-1000 arthrometer. Self-reported knee instability score was used for the subjective healing of instability. RESULTS: Eighty-seven knees did not feel unstable (Group 0), whereas 23 knees felt unstable (Group 1). There was a significant difference in AP displacement [Group 0: median 6 mm; range 2-15 mm and Group 1: median 8 mm; range 4-14; p < 0.0001]. The threshold value of 7 mm was determined using the area under receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.79 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.69-0.88, p < 0.0001]. In multivariate analysis, AP displacement of ≥7 mm was an independent risk factor for feelings of instability (odds ratio 7.695; 95% CI 2.306-25.674; p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: AP laxity of ≥7 mm represents a known cause of feelings of instability. By controlling AP laxity in TKAs, without stiffness in the knee, it is possible to prevent feelings of instability. The clinical relevance is that AP laxity of <7 mm is one of the target areas in TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

The Niigata Prefectural Central Hospital (NPCH) is one of the main hospitals for the cities of Joetsu and Myoko, Niigata Prefecture, Japan, an area with a population of 240,141, of whom 26.7 % were aged ≥65 years in 2009. In the NPCH, patients with hip fractures are admitted to an orthopedic ward within 4 h, 89.2 % of patients are operated on within 48 h during working hours, and the prevalence of pressure ulcers is 1.5 %. To reduce the incidence of hip fractures, two major challenges emphasizing secondary fracture prevention were initiated in 2012. The first challenge used a team approach-hospital pharmacists asked patients about their drug use histories, orthopedic surgeons began drug therapy for osteoporosis after explaining to patients its importance for the prevention of secondary hip fractures, nurses assessed the risk of falling, and physiotherapists conducted rehabilitation with the aim of preventing falls. The second challenge focused on maintaining treatment for osteoporosis after discharge, when patients were under the oversight of family doctors. The percentages of patients with primary hip fractures who were taking anti-osteoporosis medications at the time of discharge in 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2014 were 21, 33, 41, and 43 %, respectively. The 12-month incidences of hip fractures on the unaffected side in 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2014 were 7.4, 2.2, 0, and 2.4 %, respectively, and the 24-month incidences of such fractures in 2009, 2012 and 2013 were 12, 7.6, and 5.2 %, respectively. Our challenges were effective at decreasing the incidence of secondary fractures.

INTRODUCTION: The relative torsional angle of the distal tibia is dependent on a deformity of the proximal tibia, and it is a commonly used torsional parameter to describe deformities of the tibia; however, this parameter cannot show the location and direction of the torsional deformity in the entire tibia. This study aimed to identify the detailed deformity in the entire tibia via a coordinate system based on the diaphysis of the tibia by comparing varus osteoarthritic knees to healthy knees. METHODS: In total, 61 limbs in 58 healthy subjects (age: 54 ± 18 years) and 55 limbs in 50 varus osteoarthritis (OA) subjects (age: 72 ± 7 years) were evaluated. The original coordinate system based on anatomic points only from the tibial diaphysis was established. The evaluation parameters were 1) the relative torsion in the distal tibia to the proximal tibia, 2) the proximal tibial torsion relative to the tibial diaphysis, and 3) the distal tibial torsion relative to the tibial diaphysis. RESULTS: The relative torsion in the distal tibia to the proximal tibia showed external torsion in both groups, while the external torsion was lower in the OA group than in the healthy group (p < 0.0001). The proximal tibial torsion relative to the tibial diaphysis had a higher external torsion in the OA group (p = 0.012), and the distal tibial torsion relative to the tibial diaphysis had a higher internal torsion in the OA group (p = 0.004) in comparison to the healthy group. CONCLUSION: The reverse torsional deformity, showing a higher external torsion in the proximal tibia and a higher internal torsion in the distal tibia, occurred independently in the OA group in comparison to the healthy group. Clinically, this finding may prove to be a pathogenic factor in varus osteoarthritic knees. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level Ⅲ.

PURPOSE: To characterize femoral deformities and determine sex differences in varus knee osteoarthritis (OA), femoral morphology and limb alignment were evaluated by using three-dimensional (3D) assessment, comparing healthy, elderly volunteers with osteoarthritic knees. METHODS: A total of 178 lower limbs of 169 subjects with knee osteoarthritis (136 women, 33 men; mean age 74.9 ± 5.2 years) and 80 lower limbs of 45 healthy, elderly subjects (24 women, 21 men; mean age 65 ± 4.9 years) were examined. A 3D extremity alignment assessment system was used to examine the subjects under weight-bearing conditions on biplanar long-leg radiographs using a 3D-to-2D image registration technique. The evaluation parameters were (1) femoral bowing in the coronal plane, (2) femoral bowing in the sagittal plane, (3) femoral neck anteversion, (4) hip-knee-ankle angle, and (5) femoral torsion. RESULTS: Higher femoral lateral bowing and slightly higher femoral internal torsion in the proximal diaphysis were observed in women with OA compared with healthy subjects. No difference in the higher varus malalignment, no alteration in the femoral anterior bowing, and no difference in the lower femoral neck anteversion were found between men and women when comparing healthy and OA subjects. CONCLUSIONS: The higher femoral lateral bowing and slightly higher femoral internal torsion in the proximal diaphysis in women are possibly a structural adaptation to mechanical use. The clinical significance is that the femoral deformities and the sex differences in knee OA have the potential to improve the understanding of the aetiology of primary varus knee OA.

BACKGROUND: The extensor mechanism may be the key to kinematic alignment of total knee arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to determine any differences in the direction of the quadriceps vector based on gender or ethnicity and to determine which anatomically derived alignment axis is closest to the quadriceps vector. METHODS: Computed tomography scans and patient records for 14 Caucasians (9 men and 5 women) and 40 Japanese (19 men and 21 women) were evaluated. Three axes of alignment-anatomic, mechanical, and spherical-were identified, measured, and compared to the quadriceps vector in each case. Principal component analysis was used to determine the quadriceps vector by using 3-dimensional models of muscles on computed tomography scans. RESULTS: No statistically significant differences in the orientation of the quadriceps vector were found based on gender or ethnicity, and the quadriceps vector was most closely aligned with the spherical axis. CONCLUSION: Because the quadriceps is the primary knee extensor, the spherical axis therefore may be a ubiquitous guide to alignment of the arthroplasty knee based on motion.

BACKGROUND: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury often leads to symptoms of instability, which may cause meniscus injury, osteochondral lesions, and degenerative changes. For thorough evaluation of the effects of abnormal motion of ACL-deficient (ACLD) knees on the meniscus and articular cartilage, it is necessary to assess tibiofemoral motion in the medial and lateral compartments separately. Our aim was to determine if in vivo three-dimensional (3D) dynamic motion of ACLD knees differs from that of contralateral uninjured knees by assessing knee motion in the medial and lateral compartments respectively. METHODS: A total of 22 patients with an isolated ACL-injured knee were examined. 3D to two-dimensional registration was used to determine 3D knee motion during squatting from full knee extension to full flexion for both ACLD and contralateral uninjured knees. The knee motion was evaluated by the movement of the geometric center axis of the femur projected onto the tibial axial plane. RESULTS: In ACLD knees the lateral femoral condyle was located significantly more posteriorly during nearly full extension than in contralateral uninjured knees. The range of anteroposterior translation of the medial femoral condyle was significantly greater than those of contralateral uninjured knees. Almost all of the contralateral uninjured knees demonstrated medial pivot motion, while the ACLD knees showed higher variance. CONCLUSIONS: The ACLD knees exhibited a motion pattern different from those of contralateral uninjured knees with higher variance. During nearly full extension of the ACLD knees, the lateral femoral condyle translated posteriorly and the screw-home movement seemed to be impaired. The ACL might have an important role in maintaining normal knee function, especially during the early flexion phase. The larger range of anteroposterior translation of the medial femoral condyle in ACLD knees may be associated with a risk of secondary meniscal injury and degenerative change in the articular cartilage.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that a medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty might restore the functional flexion axis of a knee to normal. The flexion axis can be indirectly identified by tracking the vertical translation of anatomic landmarks that basically move around the flexion axis during a knee motion. If a unicompartmental knee could help restore the normal flexion axis, the anatomic landmarks after the arthroplasty would show the vertical translation similar to those of normal knees during a knee flexion. METHODS: While performing a squatting motion, the kinematics of 17 knees were determined before and after a medial unicompartmental arthroplasty to calculate the vertical translation of a clinical epicondylar axis, using a three- to two-dimensional registration technique through a single-plane fluoroscopic system incorporating a biplanar static radiography. The results were compared with a normal data, and a statistical analysis including a two-way repeated-measured analysis of variance was performed. RESULTS: For the medial end, from 10° to 100° knee flexion, normal, osteoarthritic, and unicompartmental knees had the average superior vertical translation of 7.3 ± 4.2, 4.3 ± 7.2, and 2.4 ± 3.1 mm, respectively, with statistical significance between normal and unicompartmental knees (p < 0.001). The vertical translation did not return to normal post-implantation. CONCLUSIONS: A unicompartmental knee could not reproduce the normal flexion axis. As for clinical relevance, the changes of the implant design and surgical procedure may be necessary to obtain the normal flexion axis reproducing a normal motion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

PURPOSE: It is common to assert that restoration of normal knee kinematics is essential for the best functional result after knee arthroplasty. Previous studies using the progression of the geometric centre axis have suggested that kinematics after unicompartmental arthroplasty is markedly different from the normal. For this study, the transepicondylar axis was used because this axis is closer to the flexion axis and should be a better reference for motion. The following hypothesis was tested: the transepicondylar axis would again show that the postoperative kinematics does not restore normal motion and is closer to that before replacement. METHODS: Seventeen osteoarthritic knees were tested before and after unicompartmental arthroplasty using a three-dimensional to two-dimensional registration technique tracking the transepicondylar axis to calculate translation and rotation of this axis. Results were compared for the seventeen knees before and after arthroplasty and were compared to the normal knee as measured in our previous study. RESULTS: Similar motion patterns in the pre- and postoperative knees were shown but both the pre- and postoperative motion were markedly different from the normal knee. CONCLUSIONS: This result supported our hypothesis. The clinical relevance is that medial unicompartmental arthroplasty cannot restore the motion of the knee to normal in the living knee. Therefore, it would be expected that the patient for unicompartmental knee might not feel normal. It may not be possible depending on ligaments alone to restore the knee to normal, and the changes in the articular shapes and the surgical procedure may also be necessary.

BACKGROUND: The functional flexion axis (FFA) is the principal axis around which the knee moves and thus, by definition, does not move in vertical displacement relative to the tibia. The transepicondylar axis (TEA) has been reported to coincide with the FFA. If that is not true, the TEA should show vertical displacement during motion, and this hypothesis was investigated. METHODS: Three-dimensional knee kinematics of 20 healthy volunteers were determined during a squatting motion via a 3-dimensional to 2-dimensional image registration technique by calculating the vertical displacement of the clinical epicondylar axis (CEA) through the full range of motion. RESULTS: From 0° to 90° knee flexion, the average vertical displacement of the lateral end of the CEA was <3 mm, whereas that of the medial end was large (7.6 mm). DISCUSSION: The large vertical displacement of the medial end of the CEA suggests that the CEA is not the FFA. This finding implies that the CEA may not be an appropriate axis for a TKA prosthesis having a "single radius" design. EVIDENCE LEVEL: Level IV.

PURPOSE: The transepicondylar axis (TEA) has been used as a flexion axis of the knee and a reference of the rotational alignment of the femoral component. However, no study has showed dynamic normal knee kinematics employing TEA as the evaluation parameter throughout the full range of motion in vivo. The purpose of this study was to analyze dynamic kinematics of the normal knee through the full range of motion via the 3-dimensional to 2-dimensional registration technique employing TEA as the evaluation parameter. METHODS: Dynamic motion of the right knee was analyzed in 20 healthy volunteers (10 female, 10 male; mean age 37.2 years). Knee motion was observed as subjects squatted from standing with knee fully extended to maximum flexion. The following parameters were determined: (1) Anteroposterior translations of the medial and lateral ends of the TEA; and (2) changes in the angle of the TEA on the tibial axial plane (rotation angle). RESULTS: The medial end of the TEA demonstrated anterior translation (3.6 ± 3.0 mm) from full extension to 30° flexion and demonstrated posterior translation (18.1 ± 3.7 mm) after 30°, while the lateral end of the TEA demonstrated consistent posterior translation (31.1 ± 7.3 mm) throughout knee flexion. All subjects exhibited femoral external rotation (16.9 ± 6.2°) relative to the tibia throughout knee flexion. CONCLUSION: Compared to previously used parameters, the TEA showed bicondylar posterior translation from early flexion phase. These results provide control data for dynamic kinematic analyses of pathologic knees in the future and will be useful in the design of total knee prostheses.

BACKGROUND: Pre- and postoperative knee kinematics in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) can be theoretically related to clinical outcome and longevity after UKA with regard to ligament function and the degree of arthritic changes. However, the preoperative knee kinematics of patients indicated for UKA remain to be elucidated, and it is also unclear whether the preoperative kinematics can be maintained by the UKA procedure. The objective of this study was to examine the in vivo pre- and postoperative three-dimensional knee kinematics in UKA while referencing the normal knee kinematics reported in our previous study. METHODS: We analyzed the knee kinematics in 17 knees (14 patients) undergoing UKA via a three-dimensional to two-dimensional registration technique employing femoral condylar translation and femoral axial rotation. The pre- and postoperative knee kinematics during squat motion were evaluated in the same subjects, employing consistent evaluation parameters. RESULTS: On average, both pre- and postoperative knee kinematics in the range 10-100° of knee flexion demonstrated near-consistent femoral external rotation and anterior translation of the medial condyle and posterior translation of the lateral condyle. However, the mean femoral external rotation angle and the posterior translation of the lateral condyle postoperatively were significantly smaller than the values observed preoperatively. DISCUSSION: Although the patterns of preoperative knee motion were similar to those seen in normal knees, the magnitude of this motion varied widely between patients, so it was not necessarily representative of normal knees. These variations may be due to the varying degrees of arthritic changes caused by osteoarthritis. Although the patterns of knee kinematics were largely maintained by the UKA procedure, the causes of the significant reductions in the magnitude of motion upon performing the UKA procedure should be investigated in subsequent studies with a larger number of patients.

BACKGROUND: Analysis of the movement of anatomically defined reference axes at the femoral condyles relative to the tibia is appropriate for evaluating knee kinematics. However, such parameters have been previously employed only in studies utilizing stop-motion techniques. The purpose of this study was to evaluate in vivo dynamic kinematics for full range of motion in normal knees using the three-dimensional to two-dimensional registration technique and to compare them with previously reported normal knee kinematics obtained via stop-motion techniques. METHODS: Dynamic motion of the right knee was analyzed in 20 healthy volunteers (10 female, 10 male; mean age 37.2 years). Knee motion was observed when subjects squatted from standing with the knee fully extended to maximum flexion. We determined the following parameters: (1) changes to angles of the geometric center axis (GCA) on the tibial axial plane (rotation angle); (2) anteroposterior translations of the medial and lateral ends of the GCA; and (3) motion patterns in each phase during knee flexion. RESULTS: All subjects exhibited femoral external rotation (26.1°) relative to the tibia throughout knee flexion. The medial femoral condyle demonstrated anterior translation (5.5 mm) from full extension to 100° flexion, and demonstrated posterior translation (3.9 mm) after 100°, while the lateral femoral condyle demonstrated consistent posterior translation (15.6 mm) throughout knee flexion. All subjects showed medial pivot motion from full extension to nearly 120° flexion. From 120° flexion, bicondylar rollback motion was observed. DISCUSSION: Although the behavior of the medial femoral condyle in our analysis differed somewhat from that seen in previous cadaver studies, the results obtained using dynamic analysis were generally equivalent to those obtained in previous studies employing stop-motion techniques. These results provide control data for future dynamic kinematic analyses of pathological knees.
