Last updated 2011-10-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The hypothesis of the proposed study is that performing total knee arthroplasty through a mini subvastus approach results in statistically significant differences in one or more of the above functional outcome measures, when compared in a blinded, prospective, controlled, randomized manner to mini-medial arthrotomy approach.

1. Analyses of lower extremity functional activities (gait and stairs)
2. Strength of thigh musculature
3. Self-assessment of the functional outcomes
4. Return to the activities of daily living and sports activities
