Key Points Prophylaxis with emicizumab was used in a patient with severe hemophilia with an inhibitor who underwent knee surgery. Use of emicizumab during surgery led to less recombinant factor VIIa and less bleeding, in addition to cost savings, for this patient.

During performing Computer assisted Total Knee surgery, surgeons have difficulties in orientation of cutting block before sawing procedure. The objectives of this study are develop design approach and fabrication of prototype, which able to eliminate stated difficulties. Thus, improve performance and cycle time of total knee surgery. Benchmarking with commercial product had been conducted, two designs of jig system were proposed. Selection of design was conducted using Pugh method. Two designs were compared based on specific requirements, in order to get the most acceptable design. Pugh method analysis shown that the second design give more advantages in handling, easy to operate, least cost in manufacture, and reduction of time in doing the total knee replacement than the first design. Prototype jig assembly consist of arm, base and cutting block were fabricated by rapid protyping for feasibility analysis. Then, simulation of fabrication by machining process was conducted through Mastercam Mill V8. All component were able to fabricated through machining. A prototype of jig system was fabricated using stainless steel typed SS316L, and evaluation of cutting procedure with saw bone confirmed that the second design is fulfill the objectives of this study.

BACKGROUND: The femoral rotation angle is important element in total knee replacement (TKR). AIM: To measure this angle, we determine through the axes: the transepicondylar axis (cTEA and sTEA), the posterior condylar axis (PCA), the anteroposterior axis (APA – Whiteside axis). METHODS: Measuring the angles created by the four axes: cTEA, sTEA, PCA and APA in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); determining the femoral rotation angle and application TKR. RESULTS: the angle between APA and cTEA: 90.41° ± 3.35°, the angle between APA and sTEA: 94.47° ± 3.31°, the angle between APA and PCA: 96.40° ± 4.59°, the angle between cTEA and sTEA: 4.00° ± 1.02°, the angle between cTEA and PCA: 6.53° ± 2.55°, the angle between sTEA and PCA: 3.48° ± 1.91°. CONCLUSION: The angle between sTEA and PCA is the angle that best represents the femoral rotation angle. However, in case of sTEA or PCA is difficult to identify, it can be measure via the APA or cTEA. These angles don’t differ by age, gender and place of knee joint.
