Abstract
Osteoarthritis or degenerative arthritis is an idiopathic slowly progressing synovial joint disease that is pathologically distinguished by localized articular cartilage degradation. Although osteoarthritis can harm any joint, it most frequently affects the knee, hip, and spine. Advanced age, sex, BMI, joint injuries, repetitive stress injuries, genetics, bony deformities, and specific metabolic diseases are risk factors for osteoarthritis. Symptoms of osteoarthritis frequently appear gradually and get worse over time. Pain, discomfort, stiffness, lack of flexibility, grating sensation, bone spurs, and swelling are the most typical signs and symptoms. The commonest deformity in patients with knee osteoarthritis is Varus deformity. Oxford Knee Score (OKS) is an established patient-reported outcome measure to assess knee pain and functioning before TKA as it helps in determining the need for medical or surgical management preoperatively. Also, it helps in the evaluation of the patient reported outcome postoperatively. AIM OF THE WORK: The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of total knee replacement in osteoarthritic knee with severe varum deformity.
