OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using three-dimensional (3D) printing technology for knee osteoarthritis (KOA) accompanied with extra-articular deformity.
BACKGROUND: Recently, anatomical designs in total knee arthroplasty are introduced to address asymmetry of the resected tibia cutting surface. It is still not well known how much improvement would be achieved in total knee arthroplasty, especially in...

BACKGROUND: Advanced prosthetic knees allow for more dynamic movements and improved quality of life, but payers have recently started questioning their value. To answer this question, the differential clinical outcomes and cost of microprocessor-cont...
AIMS: The purpose of this multicentre observational study was to investigate the association between intraoperative component positioning and soft-tissue balancing on short-term clinical outcomes in patients undergoing robotic-arm assisted unicompart...
BACKGROUND: Computer navigation increases reproducibility compared to non-navigated total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Robotics navigation is a branch of computer navigation technology that might further improve accuracy of implant placement. The aim of ...
To improve the multi-speed adaptability of the powered prosthetic knee, this paper presented a speed-adaptive neural network control based on a powered geared five-bar (GFB) prosthetic knee. The GFB prosthetic knee is actuated via a cylindrical cam-b...
