Q

moving fem head medially will incr or decr offset

A

incr

25
Q

changes to tibia incl poly affect flexion vs extension

changes to femur

A

tibia = affects both flex/ext

femur = affects one of the two

26
Q

what inhibits ossteolysis

A

IFN gamma
OPG
IL4
IL10

27
Q

median parapatellar approach vs quad sparing for TKA

A

median = better alignment

28
Q

offset liner

incr or decr joint reactive forces

A

Q

incr or decr joint reactive forces

extended offset femoral component

A

30
Q

incr or decr joint reactive forces

varus neck angle (more than 120)

A

31
Q

type of wear

pitting/delamination

A

fatigue wear

32
Q

type of wear

deformation w/o wear

A

creep

33
Q

type of wear

removal of material on the backside of modular tibial components

A

adhesive/abrasive wear

34
Q

valgus malalignment TKA usu due to

A

deformity in distal femur (varus = proximal tibia)

35
Q

for valgus knee avoid femoral malrotation by referencing

A

AP axis (not hypoplastic LFC)

36
Q

complication unique to computer nav in TKA

A

fem shaft fx

37
Q

painful catching in PS TKA due to?

tx?

A

patellar clunk syndrome due to extensor mechanism over trochlear notch from flex to extension

tx = arthro synovectomy

38
Q

mechanism of alendronate

A

inhib farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (nitrogen containing)

39
Q

mechanism of denosumab

A

RANKL inhibition

40
Q

mech of steroids

A

phospholipase A2 inhib

41
Q

incr risk of peroneal nerve injury

A

preop valgus alignment, hx of HTO

42
Q

adhesive vs abrasive wear

A

adhesive = rubbing 2 hard surfaces so transfer from less to more wear resistant material

abrasive wear = surface imperfects with less-wear-resistant material

43
Q

medial gastroc flap relies on which artery

A

medial sural artery

44
Q

what is best tka implant that decr poly wear and bone-implant interface stresses

A

mobile bearing TKA

45
Q

incr risk of what after acetab liner revision

A

dislocation

46
Q

revision surgery for acetab fx with medial cup migration

A

acetab revision with cup-cage construct (not triflange = only for bone loss)

47
Q

highest risk of PJI

A

revision TKA

48
Q

best tka for neuromuscular disease with valgus knee

A

rotating-hinge TKA

49
Q

osteolysis after tha correlated with

A

linear wear rate

50
Q

wbc and pmn % for PJI in TKA

A

wbc more than 1100

pmn % more than 64%

51
Q

disadvantage of highly cross linked poly

A

decr toughness
decr ductility
decr fatigue strength

improved wear properties

52
Q

how does femur change from flexion to extension

A

MEDIAL PIVOT femur INTERNALLY ROTATES relative to tibia

femur translates ANTERIORLY

53
Q

moving acetab component more medial = incr or decr stability of hip

A

decr

54
Q

mc complication of custom triflange component

A

dislocation

55
Q

mechanism of osteolysis

A

1) macrophage make TNFa, IL-1
2) promotes RANK-RANKL
3) activate osteoclasts

56
Q

RANKL produced by

A

osteoblasts

57
Q

function of OPG

A

OPG binds RANKL (so RANKL can’t bind RANK on osteoclast precursor cells)

58
Q

wear rate above what is considered significant

A

0.1 mm per year
