Using a patient-specific cutting guide enables identical knee osteotomies: An evaluation of accuracy on sawbones

Résumé

Purpose: It was hypothesized that using a Patient-Specific Cutting Guide (PSCG) would allow the creation of sawbones model osteotomies, identical in the 3 planes and the hinge parameters, that can be used for biomechanical studies. The aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of the PSCG system and to introduce and assess the new hinge parameter; the hinge area. Methods: Six identical sawbones tibia models were identically set up for identical osteotomy cuts by the same surgeon in the same session and with identical instruments. A medical scanner was used to evaluate the 3D configuration of all the specimens. The analyzed parameters included the cutting angles in both the coronal and sagittal planes (degrees) and the hinge and the slicing areas (cm2), and the hinge thickness (mm). The values were statistically evaluated for average, standard deviation, 95% confidence index, and delta to the expected values were calculated. Results: The mean values for the coronal and sagittal angles were 110.5̊ ± 1̊ and 89.8̊ ± 0.8̊, respectively. The 95% confidence index level ranged between 0.1̊, and 0.8̊ in both the coronal & the sagittal planes. The mean values for the hinge thickness, the hinge area, and the slicing area were 12.7 ± 1.5 mm, 4.2 ± 0.9 cm2, and 18.3 ± 1.2 cm2, respectively. Conclusion: In the presented study, it can be demonstrated that mechanically identical osteotomy specimens, with regard to the cutting planes and hinge parameters, can be reliably created using the PSCG. The identical specimens can be used for biomechanical research purposes to further expand our knowledge of the factors affecting osteotomy outcomes. Level of evidence: IV.
