Table 3.

Cross tabulation of preoperative flexion quartiles to flexion outcome group

Preoperative flexion quartiles Loss in flexion (< −5) No change in flexion Gain in flexion (> 5)
0–25th percentile(< 100°) 2.2% 11.1% 89.7%
25th–50th percentile (100°–110°) 4.3% 21.9% 73.8%
50th–75th percentile (110°–120°) 11.7% 38.4% 49.9%
75th percentile (≥ 120°) 76.5% 55.7% 12.8%

Crosstabulation with Pearson chi square was highly significant (p < 0.0001) , suggesting as preoperative flexion quartile increases, there is a significant decrease in the percentage of those that gain flexion postoperatively.
