Intervention  Altiusâ„¢ Buechel Pappas Primary Total Knee Replacement System (Co-Cr Mobile Bearing Knee- Cemented)  • Subjects who were implanted with CE marked Altiusâ„¢ Buechel-Pappas Primary Total Knee replacement System (Co-Cr Mobile Bearing Knee– Cemented) is the study population of interest. • Data for cohort study will be collected by the medical investigators of the study or it will be gathered from existing records or databases. Wherein this being a retrospective observational cohort study, data will be validated by telephonic follow-up visits (TFU) and the eligible subjects will be recruited for prospective Clinical follow-up (CFU) study. • Identification of previously unknown side-effects, monitoring the identified side effects and contraindications, emergent risks, assessing the survival rate, evaluation of subject satisfaction rate, these all will be examined by out-patient clinical follow-up (CFU) with eligible recruited subjects. • To assess device performance, following assessments will be done. Measurement of deformity using radiographic examination if it will be applicable, wear of the implant, spinout, WOMAC score, and range of motion, SF 36-PCS and MCS score. • Previously unknown side-effects will be identified and identified side effects and contraindications will be monitored. • Emergent risks will be identified and analysed on the basis of factual evidence. • Continued acceptability of benefit-risk ratio will be ensured.

Details 
1. Male or female subjects who were implanted with CE marked AltiusTM BuechelPappas High Flex Total Knee Replacement System (Co-Cr Mobile Bearing Knee- Cemented) 2. Subjects that underwent TKR due to degenerative joint disease (primary Osteo Arthritis, post- traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis (Osteochondritis), Rheumatoid Arthritis, abnormal formation or alignment of the knee) 3. Subject agrees to provide approved written informed consent to and to follow the study visit schedule (as defined in the study protocol and informed consent document) 4. Subjects whose routine radiographic assessment is possible 5. Subject is of minimum 18 years and a maximum of 75 years of age, at the time of surgery 6. Subjects falling under at least one of below mentioned category of intended indicated use of the Implant such as : a. Someone who is skeletally mature b. Someone who has not responded to non-operative treatment (i.e. Drug or physical therapy) for a period of 6 months
c. Someone who has stable and intact ligaments for medial and lateral collateral d. Someone with intact quadriceps and hamstring mechanisms e. Someone with a poor knee score indication f. Someone whose primary surgery occurs when there is a suitable bone stock (complete cortical contact with the tibial and femoral component edges) which in turn enables sufficient seating of the components

Brief Summary  

This study is an observational retrospective and prospective study in which the safety and performance data would be collected retrospectively using the medical records of the Buechel-Pappas High Flex Total Knee Replacement System (Co-Cr Mobile Bearing Knee - Cemented) implanted subjects and subsequently their data will be validated by approaching them for Telephonic Follow-up Visits (TFU) and the identification of unidentified side effects, monitoring of identified side effects and contraindications, analysis of newly emergent risks and analysis of risk benefit ratio would be done prospectively by following up with the subjects whose data has been collected retrospectively.

The retrospective study helps in getting greater access to available data at a very shorter period of time. They can analyze multiple outcomes and potentially address long term complications.

The study is designed to reflect standard clinical practice as closely as possible because it allows the results of such a study, to represent the true clinical outcome that would be achieved in clinical practice from a realistic, true to life perspective
