Increased prevalence of lateral trochlear groove wear among valgus alignment subtypes by coronal knee alignment classification: A retrospective single-center study
Introduction
The Coronal Plane Alignment of The Knee (CPAK) classification aims to restore the constitutional knee alignment, although it neglects the patellofemoral joint. Therefore, this study aims to examine the correlation between trochlear groove wear (TGW) patterns and CPAK classifications.
Methods
Our institutional database was queried to include unilateral primary total knee arthroplasties (TKA) between 2021 and 2025. TGW was categorized into central, medial, lateral, and no TGW based on the most prominent wear observed intraoperatively. Using OMNIBotics® surgical navigation system (Corin Ltd.), nine CPAK phenotypes were determined by intraoperative registration of the arithmetic hip–knee–ankle angles (aHKA), joint line obliquity (JLO), lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA), and medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA).
Results
Among 559 cases, central TGW (53.7 %), followed by lateral (21.8 %) and medial (15.2 %), were the most frequent TGW. Lateral TGW had a higher mean of MPTA (88.5 ± 2.3), while medial TGW had a significantly higher mean of LDFA (87.3 ± 2.2) than the other groups. Central TGW was the most prevalent wear in all aHKA groups, with the lateral TGW being more frequent (33 %) in the valgus knees than the medial TGW (8.4 %). Forty-two percent of cases with lateral TGW had CPAK type Ⅲ, followed by CPAK type Ⅱ (30 %) and CPAK type Ⅵ (13.0 %). The most frequently observed CPAK phenotypes with the central TGW were type Ⅱ (40 %), type Ⅲ (25 %), and typeⅠ (17 %). The same trend was detected for medial TGW and those without wear.
Conclusion
The interplay between joint health and structural alignment can impact surgical planning, as we observed a significant association between the TGW and CPAK parameters. Surgeons may adjust femoral component rotation in CPAK Ⅲ with lateral TGW to address patellar maltracking, though further research is needed.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Orthopaedics aims to be a leading journal in orthopaedics and contribute towards the improvement of quality of orthopedic health care. The journal publishes original research work and review articles related to different aspects of orthopaedics including Arthroplasty, Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, Trauma, Spine and Spinal deformities, Pediatric orthopaedics, limb reconstruction procedures, hand surgery, and orthopaedic oncology. It also publishes articles on continuing education, health-related information, case reports and letters to the editor. It is requested to note that the journal has an international readership and all submissions should be aimed at specifying something about the setting in which the work was conducted. Authors must also provide any specific reasons for the research and also provide an elaborate description of the results.
