This study aimed to quantify the elongation patterns of the collateral ligaments following TKA during functional activities of daily living. Using mobile video-fluoroscopy to capture radiographic images of the knee in a group of six patients, each with an ultra-congruent knee implant, tibiofemoral kinematics were reconstructed throughout complete cycles of level gait, downhill walking, stair descent, and squat activities. Kinematic data were then used to drive subject-specific multibody knee models to estimate length-change patterns of the LCL as well as three bundles of the MCL. In addition, a sensitivity analysis examined the role of the attachment site in the elongation patterns. Our data indicate a slackening of the LCL but non-uniform length-change patterns across the MCL bundles (ranging from lengthening of the anterior fibers to shortening of the posterior fibers) with increasing knee flexion angle. Near-isometric behavior of the intermediate fibers was observed throughout the entire cycle of the studied activities. These length-change patterns were found to be largely consistent across different activities. Importantly, length-change patterns were critically sensitive to the location of the femoral attachment points relative to the femoral component. Thus, in TKA with ultra-congruent implants, implantation of the femoral component may critically govern post-operative ligament function.
