Using Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function (PROMIS PF) computerized adaptive test instead of the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS, JR) could reduce question burden for patients with knee pain. We aimed to prospectively determine the correlation between PROMIS PF and KOOS, JR to assess whether PROMIS PF could be a useful alternative measure for both research and clinical care of patients with knee pain. This was a cross-sectional study of 88 patients. We assessed the correlation between PROMIS PF and KOOS, JR using a Pearson's correlation test. Two multivariable linear regression models were used to determine the amount of variation explained by various patient-level factors. There was a strong correlation between PROMIS PF and KOOS, JR ( = 0.74, < 0.001). KOOS, JR was an independent predictor of PROMIS PF when controlling for patient-level factors (β 0.26; < 0.001). The results of this study support the idea of using PROMIS PF in place of joint-specific measures such as KOOS, JR for clinical care of patients with knee pain. The level of evidence for this study is Level III.

Objectives: Home assessment and modification are crucial to prevent fall and fall-related injuries, especially in vulnerable subjects. This study assessed the need for home modifications and investigated risk factors associated with home injuries in post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients.
Methods: This study was conducted at the university hospital from July 2022 to July 2023.

Introduction: Extraarticular deformity (EAD) with knee arthritis is a complex condition involving tri-planar bone deformity with pathological malalignment and chronic soft tissue contracture or laxity in the knee joint. Intraarticular correction by TKA, which was previously performed with conventional manual jig by mechanical alignment technique, had its limits and difficulties especially extensive soft tissue release and risk of jeopardizing the collateral ligaments. Robotic technology allows for reproducible and precise execution of surgical plan and allows adjustment to various new personalised alignment philosophy including functional alignment (FA).

Purpose: To clarify the location of the popliteal artery (PA) is relative to the tibial osteotomy plane in patients with medial and lateral unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (KOA) undergoing UKA.
Methods: Preoperative MRI and postoperative radiographs obtained from 50 patients with unicompartmental KOA who underwent fixed-bearing UKA were analyzed. The amount of tibial resection was determined from the surgical records, and a line was drawn parallel to the tibial posterior tilt angle on the sagittal MR image to create a virtual tibial cut line.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) and its impairments affect patients' physical and mental health. Radiographically severe knee OA is believed to respond less to conservative treatments including physical therapy (PT) but has not been compared specifically with Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-10.
Objective: To correlate baseline PROMIS-10 physical and mental health scores in patients undergoing PT for knee OA, subgrouped by radiographic severity (Kellgren-Lawrence [KL] grade and number of knee compartments involved).

Purpose: To propose a new sign of patellar maltracking in recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD) and compare the differences in lower limb rotational and bony structural abnormalities among the different signs.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective study included 279 patients (mean age: 22 years; female: 81%) who underwent primary surgery for RPD over the past 4 years was performed. The patients were grouped based on the characteristics of patellar tracking: low-, moderate- and high-grade J-sign.
