THE KNEE SOCIETY VIRTUAL FELLOWSHIP CHAPTER IX PARTIAL KNEE: MEDIAL, LATERAL, PFR Lateral Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty Presented by: Keith R. Berend, MD COPYRIGHT 2016 THE KNEE SOCIETY
LATERAL UKA Less than 1% of all knee arthroplasties Technically more difficult Less reproducible Complex kinematic profile Screw-home mechanism Paucity of literature Scott RD, Orthopedics 2005 Fitz, JBJS-Am 2009 Ashraf et al., JBJS-Br 2002
ISOLATED LATERAL OSTEOARTHRITIS Approximately 10% of OA May be more common Often missed Disease of flexion Sah & Scott, JBJS-Am 2007 Pandit et al., Knee 2009
RADIOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS Weight Bearing Varus Stress 45º Flexed Courtesy of Prof. David Murray Valgus Stress 45º Flexed
LATERAL UKR CURRENT RECOMMENDATION Fixed bearing Monoblock/DCM Same technique as medial UKA Good short results Shakespeare 05/06 50 cases
MATERIALS AND METHODS 132 Lateral UKA (127 patients) 2004-2008, 2 centers Avg. age: 69.5 years (39-97) Avg. weight: 184 lbs (128-280) Avg. BMI: 30.0 kg/m 2 (19-47) Female gender: 70% Berend, Kolczun et al., CORR 2012
INDICATIONS Full thickness loss laterally Maintenance medially on varus stress radiograph No significant radiographic /arthroscopic patellofemoral disease Age, weight, activity, degree of deformity not used as contraindications in any case
VARUS STRESS VIEW 56 KNEES 15º Flexion Varus Load Correction of intra-articular deformity Preservation of medial joint space
DIAGNOSTIC ARTHROSCOPY 76 KNEES 2-3 weeks pre-op 5mm Interview scope Confirm isolated lateral disease
LATERAL UKA Metal-backed Fixed bearing Monoblock/DCM: 90 UKA Modular: 42 UKA All implants cemented
Patellar Tendon Split SURGICAL PEARLS Flexion Extension Preoperative arthroscopy when in doubt Hanging leg position/leg holder Mid-line skin incision Mini-LATERAL parapatellar approach Extramedullary alignment guides Patellar tendon split for vertical tibial resection Balance 2-3mm Lax 90 flexion Tight or 0mm full extension
PATELLAR TENDON SPLIT Trans-patellar tendon approach for vertical tibial resection Allows for proper internal rotation of tibial baseplate in relationship to femoral implant Allows for medial enough resection to reconstruct the entire lateral plateau Enlarges surface area of implant and resection to prevent subsidence and failure
BALANCING Laxity Flexion gap 2-3mm lax Extension gap 0mm
IMPINGEMENT Patellofemoral joint Tibial Implant-Femur
43-YEAR-OLD ACTIVE FEMALE 3 months s/p AKS lateral meniscectomy 2 years s/p lateral UKA
86-YEAR-OLD INACTIVE MALE >10 years pain Multiple medical comorbidities 1 year s/p UKA

FIXED LATERAL Utilized MRI imaging and cluster analysis for anatomical sizing and shape Instrumentation adapted from Mobile Bearing Medial IM Linked or EM guides
LATERAL TIBIAL SIZING STUDY 400+ cadavers (MRI database) Virtual resections (4 levels) Standard Horizontal: 7 º posterior, 0 º varus, 4mm below lateral plateau point Vertical: 4mm lateral to eminence point, Plane normal to Cobb Axis 1mm above standard 1mm below standard 2mm below standard
LATERAL TIBIAL SIZING STUDY Shape extraction 50 points around perimeter Clustering Grouped by AP size Averaging 50 points used to find average curve by RMS method 1 average cluster curve for each resection and cluster Cluster curve overlays used to create implant profile sizing rationale 8 Cluster Curves at Standard Resection Level 4 Cluster 2 Curves Overlaid (Anterior Consistent between Levels)
FIXED LATERAL Tibial resection Check in extension that 3-4mm shim and tibial baseplate fit or cut more tibia Femoral alignment EM guide adaptor IM Guide adaptor 0º Varus/Valgus Balance in extension Flexion will be loose Increase slope if tight
