Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Clinical outcome: Knee Society scorePreop and 1, 2, 5, 10 years postop

Knee Society Score (KSS): evaluates pain, in a total of 50 points, stability, 25 points, and range of motion, 25 points. The maximum score of 100 points is reached when there is no pain, with good alignment of the knee in extension, and at least 125° of range of motion, without any anteroposterior or mediolateral instability.

Patient-reported outcome: Forgotten Joint Score1, 2, 5, 10 years postop

Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) is a patient-reported outcome measure intended to determine a patient's ability to "forget" about their affected joint after surgery or treatment.It consists of 12 questions and is scored on a 0-100 scale. The higher the score, the less the patient is aware of their affected joint when performing daily activities
