“…The orthotic will need to be tailored to the individual patient; can cause problems in the foot, ankle, and hip; and does not correct the underlying pathology. 9-12,14,28-30 Sustained knee joint unloading may only truly be possible via surgery. 29 Of note, it is important to be aware of the contraindications of this particular device and to consider other surgical options (ie, HTO or arthroplasty) when a patient presents with one or several of these contraindications.…”

The Atlas Knee System was designed to fill the gap between no longer effective conservative treatments and more invasive surgery for young patients with medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). This article reports on the 2-year results of a single-arm study of 26 subjects who previously reported favorable clinical outcomes 1 year post implantation. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index pain and function scores improved by a clinically meaningful amount relative to baseline, and subjects had a return to normal range of motion. This study confirmed that the benefit of a joint unloading device in the management of young patients with medial knee OA is maintained over 2 years. This trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02711254).

Background To compare ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) of the genicular nerve with the genicular nerve block using local anesthetic and steroid for management of osteoarthritis (OA) knee pain. Methods Thirty patients with OA knee were randomly allocated to receive either ultrasound-guided PRF of the genicular nerve (PRF group) or nerve block with bupivacaine and methylprednisolone acetate (local anesthetic steroid [LAS] group). Verbal numeric rating scale (VNRS) and Western Ontario McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores were measured at pre-procedure and 1-, 4-, and 12-weeks post-procedure. Results VNRS scores decreased significantly ( P < 0.001) in both the groups at 12 weeks and other follow up times compared to baseline. Seventy-three percent of patients in the PRF group and 66% in the LAS group achieved effective pain relief (≥ 50% pain reduction) at 12 weeks ( P > 0.999). There was also a statistically significant ( P < 0.001) improvement in WOMAC scores in both groups at all follow up times. However, there was no intergroup difference in VNRS ( P = 0.893) and WOMAC scores ( P = 0.983). No complications were reported. Conclusions Both ultrasound-guided PRF of the genicular nerve and blocks of genicular nerve with local anesthetic and a steroid provided comparable pain relief without any complications. However, PRF of the genicular nerve is a procedure that takes much more time and equipment than the genicular nerve block.
