Clinical Trial: Customized Knee Arthroplasty With or Without Posterior Cruciate Ligament Retention: A CR-PS Approach

U.S., Aug. 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07757581) titled 'Customized Knee Arthroplasty With or Without Posterior Cruciate Ligament Retention: A CR-PS Approach' on May 06.

Brief Summary: Background and Rationale:

Conventional mechanical implantation of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to establish a lower-limb mechanical axis of 180deg. Computer-assisted personalized implantation aims to restore a pre-arthritic alignment while respecting the soft-tissue envelope of the knee. Depending on design, TKA implants may either retain or sacrifice the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). In mechanically implanted TKAs, functional outcomes of cruciate-retaining (CR) and posterior-stabilized (PS) des...
