N2 - Background: The purpose of our study was to compare the knee implant SIGMA to the ATTUNE knee implant in a cruciate-retaining (CR) fixed-bearing (FB) total knee replacement (TKR) surgery, with no patellar resurfacing. Methods: We examined 40 patients (19 SIGMA; 21 ATTUNE) who underwent a TKR FB CR surgery, without patellar resurfacing, due to osteoarthritis, between August 2013 and July 2017. All surgeries were performed by a single surgeon. We performed a cross-sectional analytical study based on preoperative patient data and data collected in follow-up sessions. All patients were asked to fill a quality-of-life (QOL) questionnaire, SF-36 translated to the Hebrew language. All patients were clinically evaluated using the Knee Society Score (KSS) and the Knee Function Score (KFS). Results: Patients from the SIGMA cohort reported fewer postoperative physical function limitations in the SF-36 (p = 0.01) and the KFS (p = 0.04). Patients who underwent surgery using the SIGMA implant reported increased vitality when compared to the ATTUNE (p = 0.02). No significant differences were found between the groups in other measures of quality of life, ranges of motion, valgus, and postoperative knee stability. The average follow-up period was significantly longer for the SIGMA (p < 0.00001). Conclusion: Significant differences were found in postoperative physical function and vitality scores between SIGMA and ATTUNE knee implants. SIGMA cohort presented superior results. Presumably, these findings are due to the differences in follow-up times.
