| Popis: | Denervation by electrocauterization was proposed to be efficient in preventing anterior knee pain (AKP) following arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of patellar denervation (PD) in primary knee arthroplasty. Systematic search was performed in PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalKey databases until July 2022 for published articles. The quantitative analyses were carried out by Review Manager 5.4 software. Twenty-one studies were included. Overall incidence of AKP, visual analog scale (VAS), and knee society score were significantly superior in PD group. Denervation also showed better outcomes in incidence of AKP at each follow-up time point, and in VAS and range of motion (ROM) at ≤3 months. Subanalyses based on depth of electrocautery showed statistically better results with 2–3 mm depth in VAS and PS compared to ≤1 mm. This study concluded that PD might contribute to lower incidence of knee pain. Patients who expect quicker recovery in pain and ROM may benefit from this procedure. |
