Purpose: To evaluate the minimum 5-year mid-term clinical and radiological results of minimally invasive surgery total knee arthroplasty (MIS-TKA) using a mini-keel modular tibia component.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 254 patients (361 cases) who underwent MIS-TKA between 2005 and 2006. The latest clinical and radiological assessments were done in 168 cases that had been followed on an outpatient basis for more than 5 postoperative years. Clinical results were assessed using the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score and Knee Society score. Radiological evaluation included measurements of knee alignment.
Results: The average postoperative knee range of motion and HSS score were 134.3°±12.4° and 92.7°±7.0°, respectively. The average postoperative femorotibial angle and tibial component alignment angle were 5.2°±1.7° valgus and 90.2°±1.6°, respectively. The average tibial component posterior inclination was 4.8°±2.1°. The percentage of cases with tibial component alignment angle of 90°±3° was 96.1%, and that with the femorotibial angle of 6°±3° valgus was 94.0%. Radiolucent lines were observed in 20 cases (12.0%): around the femur, tibia, and patella in 14 cases, 10 cases, and 1 case, respectively. However, they were less than 2 mm and non-progressive in all cases. The survival rate was 99.4% and there was no implant-related revision.
Conclusions: MIS-TKA using a mini-keel modular tibial plate showed satisfactory results, a high survival rate, and excellent clinical and radiological results in the mid-term follow-up.

NexGen MIS Tibial Component (Mini-keel) is a tibial component specially developed for minimally invasive surgery in total knee replacement (TKR), and the size limitations of its design and the modular system could affect tibial fixation strength, however, this has not been precisely evaluated thus far. This study aimed to systematically review the literature describing the outcome following TKR with the use of a Mini-keel. Electronic searches of databases were undertaken in July 2019 by two experienced orthopaedic surgeons according to the PRISMA guidelines for literature describing the outcomes of TKR with the use of a Mini-keel.

Background: Reports of diverse outcomes in modular mini-keel tibial componentry for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have raised concerns about early aseptic loosening. Cruciate-retaining (CR) prostheses, using mini-keel implants, have yet to be reported and compared to posterior-stabilizing (PS) designs.
Methods: A retrospective, case-matched study of 91 consecutive TKAs (n = 46 CR; n = 45 PS prostheses), using modular mini-keel tibial componentry with a 45-mm drop down stem extension, was conducted.

Introduction: To reduce the size of the surgical incision, modular mini-keel tibial components have been developed with or without extensions for the Nexgen™ MIS Tibial Component. Although a smaller component could theoretically result in defective fixation, this has never been evaluated in a large comparative series. Thus, we performed the following case control study to: (1) evaluate intermediate-term survival of a modular "mini-keel" tibial component compared to a reference standard keel component from the same line of products (Nexgen LPS-Flex Tibial Component, Zimmer); (2) to identify any eventual associated factors if the frequency of loosening was increased.
