目的：檢測(cè)術(shù)中脛股關(guān)節(jié)間隙和韌帶平衡及影響它們的因素對(duì)于全膝置換術(shù)（TKA）后膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲活動(dòng)的影響。通過(guò)影像學(xué)方法對(duì)采用后交叉韌帶保留型假體TKA（CR-TKA）術(shù)后的這些因素進(jìn)行評(píng)估。股骨后髁的偏心距和脛骨后傾角都曾被作為影響CR-TKA術(shù)后功能的術(shù)中重要因素而被報(bào)道過(guò)。而在評(píng)估股骨后髁偏心距和脛骨后傾角時(shí)對(duì)于關(guān)節(jié)間隙和軟組織平衡還不曾研究。

方法：使用一個(gè)偏離式張力測(cè)量器來(lái)測(cè)量脛股間隙和內(nèi)外側(cè)韌帶平衡。對(duì)98個(gè)因內(nèi)翻膝行CR-TKA的膝關(guān)節(jié)進(jìn)行測(cè)量，測(cè)量屈曲0°、45°、90°和135°時(shí)的脛股關(guān)節(jié)間隙，測(cè)量從0-90°和0-135°過(guò)程中膝關(guān)節(jié)間隙的變化。

結(jié)果：在0-90°屈曲過(guò)程中，對(duì)脛股關(guān)節(jié)間隙變化影響最大的是股骨后髁偏心距差值（術(shù)前股骨后髁偏心距減去術(shù)后偏心距的值）。0-135°時(shí)的脛股關(guān)節(jié)間隙的變化明顯與脛骨后傾角和135°時(shí)內(nèi)外側(cè)韌帶平衡有關(guān)。術(shù)后膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲度與術(shù)前膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲度、γ角和術(shù)后脛骨后傾角有關(guān)。多元回歸分析表明對(duì)于術(shù)后的膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲度，術(shù)前膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲度、γ角、術(shù)后脛骨后傾角和90°時(shí)內(nèi)外側(cè)軟組織平衡情況是顯著影響因素。屈曲角度的變化與術(shù)前屈曲角度、術(shù)后脛骨后傾角和90°時(shí)內(nèi)外側(cè)軟組織平衡情況存在明顯的相關(guān)性。

結(jié)論：術(shù)后膝關(guān)節(jié)屈曲度受多種因素的影響，尤其是對(duì)于CR-TKA。術(shù)中我們不光要重視脛骨后傾角還要關(guān)注屈曲位時(shí)內(nèi)外側(cè)軟組織平衡。通過(guò)CR-TKA手術(shù)應(yīng)該達(dá)到術(shù)后關(guān)節(jié)穩(wěn)定，具有良好的關(guān)節(jié)活動(dòng)度及改善患者的日常生活能力。

Significant effect of the posterior tibial slope and medial/lateral ligament balance on knee flexion in total knee arthroplasty

Purpose: The intra-operative femorotibial joint gap and ligament balance, the predictors affecting these gaps and their balances, as well as the postoperative knee flexion, were examined. These factors were assessed radiographically after a posterior cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The posterior condylar offset and posterior tibial slope have been reported as the most important intra-operative factors affecting cruciate-retaining-type TKAs. The joint gap and balance have not been investigated in assessments of the posterior condylar offset and the posterior tibial slope.

Methods: The femorotibial gap and medial/lateral ligament balance were measured with an offset-type tensor. The femorotibial gaps were measured at 0°, 45°, 90° and 135° of knee flexion, and various gap changes were calculated at 0°-90° and 0°-135°. Cruciate-retaining-type arthroplasties were performed in 98 knees with varus osteoarthritis.

Results: The 0°-90° femorotibial gapchange was strongly affected by the posterior condylar offset value (postoperative posterior condylar offset subtracted by the preoperative posterior condylar offset). The 0°-135° femorotibial gap change was significantly correlated with the posterior tibial slope and the 135° medial/lateral ligament balance. The postoperative flexion angle was positively correlated with the preoperative flexion angle, γ angle and the posterior tibial slope. Multiple-regression analysis demonstrated that the preoperative flexion angle, γ angle, posterior tibial slope and 90° medial/lateral ligament balance were significant independent factors for the postoperative knee flexion angle. The flexion angle change (postoperative flexion angle subtracted by the preoperative flexion angle) was also strongly correlated with the preoperative flexion angle, posterior tibial slope and 90° medial/lateral ligament balance.

Conclusion: The postoperative flexion angle is affected by multiple factors, especially in cruciate-retaining-type TKAs. However, it is important to pay attention not only to the posterior tibial slope, but also to the flexion medial/lateral ligament balance during surgery. A cruciate-retaining-type TKA has the potential to achieve both stability and a wide range of motion and to improve the patients' activities of daily living.
