Abstract

The short-term results of 62 knees in 55 patients with osteoarthritis treated by Prolix total knee arthroplasty were evaluated clinically and radiologically. The average age was 74.0 years (range; 60-89 years) at the time of surgery. The follow-up period was an average of 21 months (range: 6-38 months).The mean JOA knee rating score improved from 46.1 to 74.8 points. The mean FTA improved from 186.1° to 172.0°. The mean range of motion went from 101.8° preoperatively to 99.3° postoperatively.There were no significant complications (infection, DVT), patellofemoral disorders, and loosening or sinking radiographically. The short term results of the Prolix system were good.
