Background: It has been suggested that lower limb strength related to persistent postsurgical pain. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationships of pre-operative or postoperative cross-sectional area (CSA) of the thigh muscles with knee pain or patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods: Twenty patients who had undergone TKA (3 men and 17 women; mean age 75.2 ± 8.7 years) were included. CSAs of the thigh muscle (THIGH) and quadriceps muscle (QUAD) were retrospectively measured at the CT slice 10-cm superior to the quadriceps tendon insertion at the proximal pole of the patella. THIGH CSA and QUAD CSA to body weight ratios (mm2/kg), THIGH/W and QUAD/W ratios, respectively, were calculated. Knee pain and patient satisfaction postoperatively were also quantified by patient-reported measurements based on the 2011 Knee Society Score (KSS). The correlations between the THIGH/W and QUAD/W ratios and the KSS were evaluated using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Results: The preoperative THIGH/W ratio was positively correlated with KSS-pain, (r = 0.58, p |
