POSTERIOR CRUCIATE RETAINING TKA  Outline  Introduction  Potential Advantages of CR TKA  Indications for CR TKA  Surgical technique

 “Balancing” the PCL  Anterior stabilized vs. posterior stabilized  Clinical results COPYRIGHT © 2016 THE KNEE SOCIETY

PCL FUNCTION IN THE NATIVE KNEE  Limits posterior tibial translation

 Drives femoral rollback on the tibia  Moves contact point more posterior  Increases lever arm of extensor mechanism

by 30%  Small contribution to internal, external, and

varus/valgus constraint COPYRIGHT © 2016 THE KNEE SOCIETY

POTENTIAL ADVANTAGES OF CR TKA  Improved femoral rollback  Lack of patellofemoral clunk associated with some PS designs

 Less bearing constraint  Allows more component rotation  Potential for more pre-surgical knee kinematics  Preservation of femoral bone stock – no box cut  Improved survivorship in registry studies COPYRIGHT © 2016 THE KNEE SOCIETY

INDICATIONS FOR CR TKA  End-stage knee osteoarthritis  Flexion contracture 90 degrees  Coronal plane deformity PS  Mayo registry – 8117 TKAs (5389 CR and 2728 PS) examined for 15-year

survivorship  CR – 90% survival  PS – 77% survival  UK National Joint Registry 2015  CR knees have lower risk of revision  Holds true for cemented and uncemented/hybrid applications

 Australian registry PS>CR revision rate
