Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Numerous studies have echoed the superior clinical outcomes of posterior-stabilized (PS) total knee arthroplasty compared to posterior cruciate-retaining (CR) total knee arthroplasty. The post-cam mechanism of posterior-stabilized (PS) total knee arthroplasty has been postulated to provide reproducible femoral rollback and increased flexion. However, posterior-stabilized (PS) total knee arthroplasty systems are purportedly limited due to several post-cam related problems, including post-cam dislocation, wear and breakage of post, and patellar clunk syndrome. Moreover, the post-cam mechanism requires additional bone resection and poses a risk for intercondylar fracture of the distal femur during box preparation. To overcome these issues, a fixed-bearing highly conforming ultra-congruent (UC) total knee arthroplasty was introduced.

This study aims to compare the clinical results of Ultra-Congruent(UC) and posterior-stabilized(PS) insert in bilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of this work was to compare pain, stiffness, function and accuracy between groups at minimum 2 year postoperatively. The investigators hypothesized that the Ultra-Congruent(UC) insert would provide similar functional outcomes without increasing the incidence of adverse events.

The study design is a double-blind randomized controlled trial. Fifty patients planed to undergo simultaneously bilateral total knee arthroplasty are randomised to be used Ultra-Congruent(UC) insert on one leg and posterior-stabilized(PS) insert on the other. The clinical outcome is comparative preoperative, postoperative 6weeks, 3months, 6months and 1years. And clinical score consists of Range of Motion (ROM), WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster University Arthritis Index ) pain scale, Knee Society Score, Anterior and posterior stress view on X-ray.
