Quality of life after staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty: a minimum five-year follow-up study of seventy-eight patients

摘要

Purpose Although many studies have been performed to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) and patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), almost all evaluations were performed in patients after unilateral TKA or in patients after mixed unilateral and bilateral TKA. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate QOL after staged bilateral TKA.
