Component position and sizing in total knee replacement (TKR) could be improved by patient specific instrumentation (PSI). The purpose of the study was to evaluate the reliability of the manufacturer plan in predicting final component sizes for TKR.Forty-five TKRs were prospectively enrolled and data on component size were recorded from the initial manufacturer’s proposal, the final plan modified after surgeon’s and from the actually implanted prostheses.Pre-operative modifications were required in more than 50% of the cases, with the tibial tray size requiring more frequent changes. The surgeon’s planning showed a significantly higher accuracy than the manufacturer’s one regarding tibial tray size (p < 0.05) but not femoral components size (p: n.s.). Careful evaluation by an experienced knee surgeon is recommended when planning TKR with PSI.

Patient Specific Instrumentation (PSI) may contribute to reduce blood loss after total knee replacement (TKR) by avoiding violation of the medullary canal. The purpose of the study was to compare the hemoglobin (Hb) decrease in two groups of patients undergoing TKR with PSI and conventional instrumentation.Pre- and post-operative blood samples were collected for twenty-two patients randomly assigned to receive a PSI-assisted or conventional TKR. Post- to preoperative Hb difference was calculated.A significant difference in Hb reduction in favor of the PSI group was registered on the last day of stay but not on the previous post-operative days: these promising results suggest a beneficial effect of PSI in blood loss reduction. PSI may hence be considered among the strategies available to control and reduce blood loss related to TKR.
