| Abstrakt: | Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of preoperative valgus deformity and clinical outcomes of neutrally aligned total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Patients and Methods: A total of 376 knees with valgus deformity who underwent TKA from January 2006 to March 2014 were retrospectively screened, and 287 knees (242 patients; 32 males, 210 females; mean age: 64.5±8.8 years; range, 35 to 83 years) aligned neutrally after the operation were included. Patients were divided into four groups based on the preoperative hip-knee-ankle (HKA): mild (0°< HKA ≤5°, n=94), moderate (5°< HKA ≤10°, n=74), severe (10°< HKA ≤15°, n=75), and very severe (HKA >15°, n=44) groups. Range of motion (ROM), Knee Society Score (KSS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) dynamic pain scores, and Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) were evaluated. Mechanical failures were recorded to assess prosthesis survival. A survival rate analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results: The degree of preoperative valgus deformity did not have a significant impact on the postoperative ROM, KSS, VAS dynamic pain scores, or FJS at the last follow-up. There were no significant differences in cumulative survival rates of neutrally aligned TKAs at 10 years between the four groups (p=0.513). Conclusion: The severity of preoperative valgus deformity did not affect the clinical outcomes of neutrally aligned TKAs in the minimum five-year follow-up. Additionally, it did not impact the survival rates of neutrally aligned TKAs over 10 years. |
