  • COMBINED OPERATION IN TREATMENT OF OSTEOARTHRITIS OF KNEE WITH GENU VARUM

    【Abstract】 Objective To make the young patients with osteoarthritis and genu varum of knee delay total knee arthroplasty,to observe the cl inical effect of mosaicplasty of femoral medial condyle, patellar-plasty and high tibial osteotomy inthe treatment of osteoarthritis of knee with varum. Methods From June 2004 to February 2006, 8 patients with osteoarthritisof knee with varum(10 knees) were treated with combined operation such as mosaicplasty of femoral medial condyle, patellarplastyand high tibial osteotomy. There were 2 males with 3 knees, and 6 females with 7 knees,with an average age of 50 years(42-56 years). The left knees and right knees were involved in 3 cases respectively and bilateral knees in 2 cases. All patients hadknee ache after walk or long-time standing. The X-ray showed hyperosteogeny at peri-patella and circum ferential femur-tibialjoint,especially in the medial. The gap between patella and femur narrowed or disappeared,especially in the medial femurtibialjoint. The femoral tibial angel (FTA) was 185-200°(mean 190°). The HSS score of knee was 55-75(mean 60). The history ofknee ache was 1-12 years(mean 5 years). Results All patients were followed up for 7-24 months (mean 15 months). All theincisions healed by first intention, no early compl ication occurred. The cl inical bone heal ing time was 8-11 weeks(mean 9 weeks).Rectification of FTA was 15-30°(mean 20°). Normal weight-loading al ignment was recovered. The valgus angle of knee was 10°.The range of motion of knee was 100-120° after operation, increasing by 5-20° (mean 10°) when compared with preoperation.The X-ray of postoperation showed that genu varum was corrected obviously and that no displacement, loosening and breakageoccurred. The mean score of HSS was 80 (75-88), increasing by 20 when compared with preoperation. Conclusion Mosaicplastyof femoral medial condyle can make articular cartilage repair in certain degrees, patellar-plasty can rel ieve ache of fore region of knee effectively, and high tibial osteotomy can recover normal weight-loading al ignment. The curative effect is good withthe combined methods.

  • HIGH TIBIAL OSTEOTOMY COMBINED WITH AUTOGENOUS PERIOSTEAL GRAFT FOR OSTEOARTHRITIS OF KNEE

    The osteoarthritis of knee is a common disorder but no always to be treated satisfactorily. Between 1988 and 1992, the method, a high tibial osteotomy to correct the genu varum combined with autogenous periosteal or perichondrial graft to deal with the chondromalacia patella was used. Thirty-two patients (51 knees) were treated by this method and the patients were followed up for an average of 5.1 years. The excellent and good results were obtained in 90.2%. This method was obviously better than any other simple high tibial osteotomy. Therefore, this method was considered to be effective for treatment of osteoarthritis of knee with varum deformity and chondromalcia patella.
