Bone Scintigraphy and Knee Arthroplasty Clinical Trial
Official title:
Interest of Bone Scintigraphy in Pre-operative Assessment of Knee Osteoarthritis in Patients Undergoing Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty
Study the potential interest of bone scintigraphy for patients undergoing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty
Knee osteoarthritis is a very common disease with significant functional consequences.
Surgical treatment is the ultimate treatment with the possibility of replacing only one
compartment or the 3 joint compartments.
Consequently, the pre-surgical imaging is essential to ensure that the 3 compartments are not
compromised when a uni-compartmental prosthesis (PUC) is considered.
The scintigraphy because of its good diagnostic performance seems to be interesting in this
indication for the preoperative assessment of knee uni-compartmental prostheses to ensure the
absence of degenerative lesion of the unoperated compartment.
This study will evaluate the impact of bone scintigraphy on surgery and the potential
correlation between scintigraphic and clinical data; study the pronostic impact of bone
scintigraphy
