Revisiting the universal femoral component: Midterm outcomes of a modern design.
J Orthop
December 2024
Hofmann Arthritis Institute, Salt Lake City, UT, 84102, USA.
Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the 6-year clinical outcomes of a total knee arthroplasty system with a modern universal femoral component, focusing on results from a single surgeon over a 131 patient sample.
- The retrospective review showed significant improvements in Knee Society scores and range of motion after surgery, with a mean patient age of 67.4 years and a BMI of 32.6.
- Out of the 149 knees assessed, 9 required reoperation for various issues, but overall the findings indicate excellent clinical results with no instances of patellar maltracking.
Early Outcomes of a Universal Femoral Component with an Ultracongruent Insert.

Joint Implant Surgeons, Inc., New Albany, Ohio.
Article Synopsis
- A new knee arthroplasty system, designed to fit a variety of patient anatomies, was evaluated for its early clinical outcomes over at least two years after surgery.
- The study included 797 patients who had TKA with this system from 2015 to 2019, assessing various metrics like range of motion and knee scores postoperatively.
- Results showed significant improvements in knee function and pain relief, with a 6.2-year survival rate of 98.4% for any revision, indicating the system's effectiveness and reliability.
Metaphyseal Stem Extension Improves Tibial Stability in Cementless Total Knee Arthroplasty.

Department of Orthopaedics, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT.
Background: The goal was to determine if the addition of a metaphyseal stem extension limits micromotion of a cementless tibial component during cyclic loading in primary total knee arthroplasty. The hypothesis tested was that the use of a 50-mm stem extension on a cementless tibial component would limit motion compared with an identical cementless component without a stem extension.
Methods: The study used 3 variations of a tibial component from the same total knee arthroplasty system.
Bone ingrowth comparison of irregular titanium and cobalt-chromium coatings in a translational cancellous bone model.

The use of cobalt-chromium (CoCr)-bearing surfaces in total joint replacement (TJR) remains the predominate bearing surface. The conundrum with using this biomaterial has been selecting an ideal porous coating to assure reproducible skeletal attachment. There has been evidence that smooth CoCr beads may be inferior for skeletal attachment compared to identically shaped titanium (Ti) beads.

Isolated patellofemoral arthritis is a common condition and there are varying opinions on the most effective treatments. Non-operative and operative treatments have failed to demonstrate effective long-term treatment for those in an advanced stage of the condition. Newer designs and increased technology in patellofemoral replacement (PFR) have produced more consistent outcomes.

Hofmann Arthritis Institute, Salt Lake City, Utah 84054, USA.
Intraoperative lateral retinacular release (LRR) during primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is discouraged, except when LRR is necessary to centralize patellofemoral tracking. This study compares the LRR rates in four designs of total knee implants and correlates how changes in prosthesis design affect LRR rates. 2881 primary TKAs performed by one surgeon using a single surgical technique were reviewed.
