Hybrid total knee arthroplasty

Abstract

A prospective study of a hybrid total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with an uncemented femoral component and cemented tibial and patellar components was performed to combine the advantage of a press-fit femur while avoiding the problems in uncemented tibial and patellar implants. A total of 329 posterior cruciate-preserving TKA were studied at an average of 4.7 years after surgery: 84% of the knees had at most mild or occasional pain, 68% had good or excellent knee scores, and 62% could walk more than 1000 m. The function scores were 40% good or excellent in this collective, with an average age of 69.4 years at surgery. The component position and alignment were biomechanically correct. Radiolucent lines were observed regularly at the edges of the tibial and femoral components. There were no revisions for aseptic loosening. Hybrid TKA provides good results comparable to cemented TKA.
