French term

réarticulant le genoux

French to English Medical Medical (general) orthopedic article
Hi,
I am currently translating an article on revision total knee arthroplasties and have the following:
"la pièce fémorale était scellée sous pression en réarticulant le genou à l'aide du plateau d'essai"
I am having issues with "réarticulant." Could it mean "rotating"?
Thanks
Joanna

realignment of the knee joint

I asked Dr. Johannes Barth head of the orthopedic society, and he specifically said to forget re-articulation.
This was his translation:
The femoral component was cemented under pressure with placement of the trial tray and realignment of the knee joint

establishing proper (knee) alignment

...with the aid of the trial tray

This is not for points or being right; I am just posting to make it clear what happens: The femoral component is inserted, and the trial tray (preliminary tibial component) is used to position the femoral component such that proper knee geometry/alignment will be established once both final components of the endoprosthesis are in place. This may or may not involve rotation of the femoral component, but the meaning of "réarticulant" is not per se "rotating".

Surgical hip dislocation is performed under general combined with spinal anesthesia. Your surgeon makes an incision along the side of your hip. The upper part (greater trochanter) of your thigh bone (femur) is cut to allow access to the joint without incising much muscle tissue. Arteries and nerves are carefully protected. The bones are then disjointed and the articular surfaces treated. The surgical dislocation approach allows the surgeon to treat shape abnormalities and cartilage and labral injuries in the hip joint. *****After re-articulating the bones, the cut part of the femur***** is replaced and fixed with screws. Commonly, another cut in the femur (a femoral osteotomy) or lengthening of the femoral neck is performed at the same time to address associated deformity of the femur. The incision is then closed and covered with a gauze dressing. The entire procedure takes about 2-3 hours. Ice is applied to control pain and swelling for which your doctor also prescribes medication. You are placed on crutches for about 6 weeks.

Thank you! Indeed, I try to provide them.
agree Johannes Gleim : the femoral component was sealed under pressure by re-articulating the knee using the trial tray // cf. Drmanu49 for tray!

Tray??? shouldn't it be "plate"!
neutral Andrew Bramhall : It's definitely 'plate'; 'tray' here is a dubious Googletranslate or Deepl error.
