Popis: | Knee range of motion (ROM) is an important postoperative measure of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). There is conflicting literature whether patients who are obese have worse absolute ROM outcomes than patients who are not obese. This study analyzed whether preoperative body mass index (BMI) influences knee ROM after patients' primary TKA. A retrospective investigation was performed on patients, who underwent primary TKA at an academic institution, by one of three fellowship-trained adult reconstruction surgeons. Patients were stratified according to their preoperative BMI into nonobese (BMI |
