Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are at an increased risk for surgical morbidity. Previous studies have attempted to compare TKA outcomes for diabetic and non-diabetic patients but may not have fully accounted for differences in preoperative functional status. The purpose of this study was to perform a prospective, case control-matched comparison of functional outcomes for TKA in diabetic and non-diabetic patients while controlling for differences in baseline function.
