Summary

The aim of this study was to describe the postoperative "baseline" magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance of the ipsilateral thigh musculature after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The secondary aim was to describe baseline muscle enzyme levels under the same clinical scenario. Neither of these measures have been reported previously.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Scheduled for unilateral primary TKA with CACB
  • TKA and early recovery was uncomplicated (no evidence of unexpected leg weakness)

Exclusion Criteria

  • Contraindication to spinal anesthesia or adductor canal-based analgesia
  • History of muscle wasting or related disease
  • History of autoimmune disorders that may affect muscles
  • History of neurologic condition affecting the lower extremities
