Method. Twenty patients and 20 matched controls were recruited. Strength and range of motion ( ROM) of the knee, gait and Enneking functional score were measured. Results. The results revealed the operated knees were significantly weaker than sound knees and controls ( p < 0.05). The ROM of operated knees, sound knees and controls were 106.2 degrees +/- 13.0 degrees, 134.1 degrees +/- 7.5 degrees, and 137.7 degrees +/- 7.0 degrees respectively (p < 0.05). Patients' and controls' walking velocity were 54 +/- 12m/ min, and 72 +/- 6m/ min ( p < 0.05). Their Enneking score was 21.6 +/- 2.8 (72% of total score, 30). The ratio of extensor strength of operated/sound knee and isometric hamstring/ quadriceps ratio of operated knee were significantly correlated to the difference of stance-phase duration of bilateral sides (p < 0.05). In addition, the ratio of isometric flexor strength was significantly correlated to Enneking score ( p < 0.05). Conclusions. The patients achieved an acceptable recovery in strength and gait in spite of some functional limitation. Langue : ANGLAIS |
