Abstract

There are several quadriceps approach methods in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Perioperative results of 22 cases of vastus medialis oblique (VMO) snip approach (mini-mid vastus) and 23 cases of quad sparing approach were compared. The operation time of the quad sparing approach was significantly longer than the VMO snip approach. There were no significant differences in postoperative bleeding, onset time of straight leg rising, and range of motion. Although for quadriceps invasion, the quad sparing approach was less invasive than the VMO snip approach, the former technique was more difficult than the latter. If there is no significant difference in perioperative results, we should perform the easy-to-use quadriceps approach to avoid complications.
