ABSTRACT:
We present our experience with the MIS TKA through a mid-vastus approach. The indications and contraindications of the technique are discussed. Our series include 104 patients. The Knee Society Score is used to rate the results. The average KSS score on 6-th month is 89 points. Eleven patients had skin necrosis. Eight had transient stiffness. One developed late infection. The MIS-TKA is recommended for selected patients and must be performed by an experienced surgeon and prepared team.

Key words: minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty, indications, contraindications, results, complications,
