title: [The long-term results of primary total knee arthroplasty using bone grafts].
abstract: In the presented paper the authors evaluated the results of treatment in patients following primary total knee arthroplasty using bone grafts due to sever valgus or varus deformity. The clinical material from the years 2000-2004 consists of 18 patients aged from 64 to 77; namely, 14 women (77.8%) and 4 men (22.2%). The longest time of follow-up was 3 years and the shortestwas 17 months. The authors evaluated achieved results in the period between 17th and 24th month since total knee arthroplasty in 18 patients on the basis of the time criteria referring to the time of healing the bone implants and on the basis of the modificated HSS knee rating scale. We achieved 15 well, 2 sufficient and 1 insufficient based on time criteria and 9 very well, 5 well, 3 sufficient and 1 insufficient results based on modificated HSS knee rating scale.
