Knee osteoarthritis is a common joint disease that causes pain, stiffness, and limitations in daily activities, especially in older adults. Changes in the alignment of the lower limb, called the anatomical axis, can increase the mechanical load on the knee joint and may affect pain and mobility. This study aims …
In this study, the effect of intra-articular HA injection therapy on pre- and post-treatment TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels and methylation changes in blood and synovial fluid in patients with knee osteoarthritis will be determined and compared with the placebo group. In addition, the effects of HA injection on pain, functional …
Digital surgery, in combination with patient specific instrumentation (PSI) is being used more and more in traumatology due to its proven benefits and applications. Nowadays, medical case planning and an optimal preparation before surgery are still a challenge for surgeons. This lack of preparation is translated into longer surgical procedures, …
ENDOVISION Co., Ltd. has developed an intra-articular knee injection with sodium polynucleotide, chitosan, and type I collagen as its main components, and aims to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the investigational device, ALLOHEAL, compared with the control device, Conjuran®, when administered intra-articularly to patients with knee osteoarthritis for the purpose of …
This study aims to evaluate patient outcomes following robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty using the VELYS system. Patients undergoing surgery will receive either kinematic alignment or functional alignment as determined by the operating surgeon as part of routine clinical care. Within each surgical technique group, patients will be randomly assigned to …
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a non-inflammatory degenerative disease characterized by progressive deterioration of cartilage tissue, synovial membrane, and joint capsule, primarily affecting weight-bearing joints. Individuals with knee osteoarthritis exhibit weakness in the trunk and periarticular muscles. This loss of strength in the trunk and periarticular muscles increases the load on the …
For the first time, a comparative analysis of the limb axis in patients with unilateral knee OA will be conducted compared to the contralateral uninjured side using Multisliced computed tomography (MSCT) and vertical CT (weight-bearing CT). This analysis will identify the pathological and physiological degrees of varus in patients with …
Cooled radiofrequency ablation (cRFA) of the knee geniculate nerves is a promising treatment option for knee osteoarthritis, but has variable efficacy. Fluoroscopy is the typical guidance of choice, but uses bony landmarks to target these nerves which have variable positions around the knee. Alternatively, ultrasound allows for targeting based on …
This study prospectively evaluates the effect of surgical wait time on knee function, pain and quality of life in patients waiting for knee arthroplasty (TKA or PKA)
As human life expectancy increases, the prevalence of degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee joints is steadily rising, leading to a significant surge in the frequency of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, research on sarcopenia in the population that comprises the primary recipients of these orthopedic joint surgeries has been notably …
