“…OAK score [19] and IKDC score [1]. The grade of degenerative osteoarthritis as visible in the preoperative X-ray and the X-rays at the last follow-up was determined according to the grading scale of Holz [8] (Table 2), modification of the scales of Jonasch [11] and Mohing [18] and according to the IKDC score (Table 3) by a radiologist and a trauma surgeon (neither involved in the operation and neither aware of the findings of the other). The average radiological follow-up was 41.2 months for the whole group (37.3 months for patients with acute rupture and 46.7 months for those with chronic instability).…”

The knee radiographs of 77 patients were examined by two physicians not involved in the operation a mean of 41.2 months after implantation of a synthetic ligament (Trevira hochfest). They evaluated the increase of degenerative osteoarthritis on a five-grade scale (0-4) by Jonasch and Mohing as modified by Holz, and using the IKDC score. Fifty patients with acute rupture had the synthetic ligament implanted for protection of anterior cruciate repair. Twenty-seven patients had a salvage procedure with the alloplastic ligament functioning as a prosthesis. Both examiners found a statistically significant increase of degenerative arthritis. Patients with acute anterior cruciate tears had a lower degree of osteoarthritis on the day of surgery compared to the patients with chronic insufficiency, but the postoperative increase was identical in both groups. Statistical analysis revealed correlations between osteoarthric changes and several factors such as concomitant meniscus or posterior cruciate injury and demonstrated no correlation to the grade of postoperative stability or injuries to the medial or lateral collateral ligaments or capsule.

“…High reliability is essential for the use of scoring instruments in clinical and epidemiological studies [12,13]. The deficiencies of the K&L scale have led to the development of several other radiological scales that give overall scores [14][15][16][17][18][19][20] and scores that grade individual radiological featues [1,5,[21][22][23][24][25]. However, the expected improvements in reliability and practicability were not found in all of these scales.…”

Scoring prevalence and severity in gonarthritis: the suitability of the Kellgren & Lawrence scale

1998

In clinical and epidemiological studies the Kellgren & Lawrence (K&L) scale was mainly used in the past to determine the radiological prevalence and severity of gonarthritis. The dependency of this scoring system on the presence of osteophytes has been criticised, and owing to its varying reliability, its appropriateness in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies is questioned. It was the purpose of this study to test whether the dependency of the K&L scale on the presence of osteophytes is reflected in a higher correlation of the overall score with a separate scoring of 'osteophytes' than with other radiological features. Furthermore we compared the inter- and intrarater reliability with the reliability of individual radiological features. Knee radiographs of 40 patients were graded according to the K&L scale and for the presence and severity of five separate radiological features of osteoarthritis. We found a moderate correlation of the K&L scale with the radiological features of 'osteophytes', 'joint space narrowing' and 'flattening of condyles'. The intra- and inter-rater reliability of the K&L scale was higher than the reliability of the individual radiological features. The K&L scale seems not to be strongly dependent on the presence of osteophytes, i.e. there is not a higher correlation of the overall score with that feature than with other radiological features.
