Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiographic and clinical outcomes of sulcus-deepening trochleoplasty at a minimum follow-up of 23 years.
Methods: The authors evaluated a retrospective series of 10 patients (11 knees) who underwent trochleoplasty between 1993 and 2000. All patients were assessed at a minimum follow-up of 23 years by an independent clinician who noted any patellar redislocations and collected the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), Kujala scores and range of motion. Radiographic examination was performed to assess patellofemoral arthritis using the Iwano classification.
Results: A total of 11 knees, from five women and five men aged 25.6 ± 6.9 years (range, 15-47 years) underwent trochleoplasty during the inclusion period. All 11 knees underwent adjuvant procedures during trochleoplasty (100%): 10 had tibial tuberosity osteotomy (TTO) and vastus medialis plasty and 1 had only vastus medialis plasty (had prior TTO). At a follow-up of 24.4 ± 2.1 years (range, 23-30 years), two patients were lost to follow-up (18%). The Iwano classification was Grade 1 in three patients (33%), Grade 2 in four patients (44%) and Grade 4 in two patients (22%). The flexion range was 130 ± 8.7° and satisfaction was 9.2 ± 0.7, Kujala was 76.9 ± 8.5 and IKDC was 65.5 ± 13.8.
Conclusion: At 23-30 years following sulcus-deepening trochleoplasty in this small series of 10 patients (11 knees), patients had satisfactory clinical scores, only 1 patient reported an episode of traumatic patellar dislocation, and two knees had patellofemoral arthritis of Iwano Grade >2 (22%).
期刊介绍：
Few other areas of orthopedic surgery and traumatology have undergone such a dramatic evolution in the last 10 years as knee surgery, arthroscopy and sports traumatology. Ranked among the top 33% of journals in both Orthopedics and Sports Sciences, the goal of this European journal is to publish papers about innovative knee surgery, sports trauma surgery and arthroscopy. Each issue features a series of peer-reviewed articles that deal with diagnosis and management and with basic research. Each issue also contains at least one review article about an important clinical problem. Case presentations or short notes about technical innovations are also accepted for publication.
The articles cover all aspects of knee surgery and all types of sports trauma; in addition, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention, and all types of arthroscopy (not only the knee but also the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, ankle, etc.) are addressed. Articles on new diagnostic techniques such as MRI and ultrasound and high-quality articles about the biomechanics of joints, muscles and tendons are included. Although this is largely a clinical journal, it is also open to basic research with clinical relevance.
Because the journal is supported by a distinguished European Editorial Board, assisted by an international Advisory Board, you can be assured that the journal maintains the highest standards.
Official Clinical Journal of the European Society of Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy (ESSKA).
