About this study

The investigators performed a controlled multicenter trial comparing the clinical and radiologic results and resources consumption of primary TKA using patient-specific cutting guides (PSCG) versus conventional instrumentation (CI), and compared the results to those obtained with a fully disposable patient-specific instrumentation (PSCG-D).

Primary outcomes

  1. HKA angle

    Time frame: 3 months

    Lower limb mechanical axis was measured on a bipodal standing leg-length anteroposterior radiograph with the patella oriented straight made three months postoperatively, using Roman software version 1.70 (Oswestry, United Kingdom). Postoperative lower limb mechanical axis was calculated from the Hip-Knee-Ankle (HKA) angle between the femoral and tibial mechanical axes, respectively. An HKA angle greater than 180° was indicative of valgus, whereas values lower than 180° indicated varus.

Secondary outcomes

  1. % outliers

    Time frame: 3 months

    % of patients with an HKA angle outside 180°+/- 3°

  2. Knee Society Score

    Time frame: 3 months

    Validated pain and function score following TKA

  3. Oxford Knee Score

    Time frame: 3 months

    Patients self assessment of knee function
