ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of 3D printed metal augment or tibial prosthesis for reconstruction of large bone defects in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and knee revision surgery.Methods:A total of 7 patients (7 knees) with TKA or knee revision who were admitted to the Department of Orthopaedics of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine with large bone defects from July 2018 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 4 patients with TKA and 3 patients with knee revision. There were 3 males and 4 females, aged 58.7±7.6 years (range, 54-68 years), 3 patients with left knee and 4 patients with right knee. All the patients had bone defects in the knee joint (AORI type III), 2 cases had bone defects only in the femur, 4 cases had bone defects only in the tibia, and 1 case had bone defects in both the tibia and femur, which were treated with personalized reconstruction using 3D printing. Hip-knee-ankle angles, American Knee Society score (KSS) before and after surgery were compared, and postoperative complications were observed.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation, and the operation time was 189.3±35.5 min (range, 125-240 min). Complex TKA was performed in 4 cases with surgical times of 175, 195, 210, and 240 min, and revision surgery was performed in 3 cases with surgical times of 125, 180, and 200 min, respectively. Intraoperative blood loss was 114±24.4 ml (range, 100-150 ml). Five cases used 3D printed metal augment, and two used 3D printed one-piece tibial components. All patients were followed up for 2, 2, 5, 6, 7, 20, 57 months, respectively. The KSS of the five patients at 3 months postoperatively were 56, 61, 66, 56, and 56 points, respectively, greater than the preoperative scores of 35, 44, 36, 27, and 41 points. The KSS functional scores of the five patients at 3 months postoperatively were 45, 45, 45, 30, and 45 points, respectively, which were greater than the preoperative scores of 30, 30, 15, 20, and 20 points. The hip-knee-ankle angle was 181.8°±3.4° (range, 177.9° to 188.0°) at the final follow-up and 175.8°±12.4° (range, 153.3° to 192.1°) before surgery, with no significant difference ( t=-1.230, P=0.242). At the final follow-up, the 3D printed component was well integrated with the bone surface, the prosthesis was securely positioned, and the force lines of the lower limbs were normal. There were no postoperative complications such as poor wound healing, infection, fat liquefaction, nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs, knee joint stiffness, periprosthesis infection and loosening. Conclusion:Using 3D printed metal augment or tibial prosthesis to reconstruct the huge bone defect in TKA and revision has a satisfactory early clinical effect, satisfactory joint function and good surgical safety.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the morphologic protection effect of intra-articular injection of osteoprotegerin (OPG)on articular cartilage in a rabbit model of osteoarthritis (OA).Methods Sixty male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups:OPG group (n=20),sham-operated group (n=20) and PBS group (n=20).In OPG group and PBS group,each rabbit underwent anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) in left knee joint,then 0.1 ml OPG solution or PBS were injected into the left knee for 8 weeks (5 times a week) in OPG group and PBS group,respectively.In sham-operated group,the anterior cruciate ligament was just exposed without transection,and then the incision was closed.All rabbits were sacrificed 12 weeks after operation,and the left knee joints were obtained.The Pelletier score and Mankin score were used to evaluate the macroscopic and microscopic cartilage morphology.Results The score of femoral condyle cartilage and tibial plateau cartilage was 1.80±0.89 and 1.80±0.77 in OPG group,respectively,and 3.10±0.97 and 3.20±0.77 in PBS group.However,there was no statistical difference in Pelletier score between the sham-operated group and the OPG group.Consistent with the macroscopic data,the OPG group has a significantly lower Mankin score involving cartilage structure (2.65±0.88),chondrocyte (1.35±0.71),Safranin O staining (1.83±0.83),tidemark integrity (0.30±0.47) and total score (6.13±1.97) compared with the PBS group (4.52±1.09,1.85±0.63,2.80±0.75,0.65±0.49,and 9.83±1.98,respectively).The OPG group has a significantly higher total Mankin score compared with the sham-operated group (4.80±1.25),however,there were no statistical differences in four subitem scores between the two groups.Moreover,the cartilage thickness in OPG group was 371.84±38.94 μm,255.09±74.82 μm in PBS group,and 404.68±15.97 μm in the sham-operated group,and the differences were statistically significant between three groups.Conclusion OPG has a protective effect on articular cartilage and can slow the progression of OA by reducing the grade of synovitis,decreasing the volume of osteophytes,and suppressing the loss of cartilage thickness.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the risk factors related to the survival time of anti-protrusion cage in acetabular revision.Methods Data of 40 patients who had received acetabular revision using antiprotrusion cages between January 2002 and June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 16 males and 24 females,aged from 22 to 77 years (average,60.3 years).All patients were followed up for 12 to 82 months (average,39.2 months).According to the AAOS classification,there were 29 cases of type C and 11 cases of type D; while according to the Paprosky classification,there were 29 cases of type ⅢA and 11 cases of type Ⅲ B.The multiple regression analysis was utilized to investigate the relationships between different factors and anti-protrusion cage failure.The corresponding factors included gender,age,bone loss classification,superior or lateral migration of acetabular center of rotation,abduction angle,fixation manners (simple flange fixation or flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation),bone grafting techniques and cup type.Results At final follow-up,the average Harris score was 74.5±15.4.Two patients received rerevision due to prosthetic loosening.Obvious radiological loosening of prosthesis combined with pain was found in 2 cases.The statistical analysis indicated that superior migration of acetabular center of rotation,abduction angle and fixation manners were correlated with cup failure,especially when the superior migration was more than 8.5 mm or the abduction angle was larger than 53.5°.Flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation could reduce risk of cup failure.Conclusion There is a higher cup failure risk in acetabular revision using an anti-protrusion cage for patients with serious bone defect.However,implanting cup at the level of the true acetabulum as far as possible,decreasing abduction angle properly and using flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation can reduce cup failure risk.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore relationship between anterior knee pain after total knee arthroplasty and patella resurfacing and prosthesis design,and to evaluate which femoral prosthesis is more friendly with patella:Genesis Ⅱ or PFC knee prostheses.Methods Data of 145 patients (145 knees) who had undergone primary total knee arthroplasty for treating osteoarthritis were retrospectively analyzed.Posterior-cruciate-substituting total knee prostheses were used in all patients.Among 74 patients who had undergone patella resurfacing,Genesis Ⅱ knee prosthesis was used in 32 patients and PFC knee prosthesis in 42 patients.Among 71 patients who had not undergone patella resurfacing,Genesis Ⅱ knee prosthesis was used in 38 patients and PFC knee prosthesis in 33 patients.The Hospital for Special Surgery(HSS) score,patella score,patellar function score,range of motion of knee,anterior knee pain scale,and patient satisfaction were used to evaluate clinical outcomes.At the same time,the imaging results were evaluated by X-rays.Results 144 patients were successfully followed up for 21 to 43 months (average,33 months).There was no significant difference in incidence of anterior knee pain between the group with patella resurfacing and the group without patella resurfacing,while a significant difference was found between patients receiving Genesis Ⅱ knee prosthesis and those receiving PFC knee prosthesis.Four patients who had undergone total knee arthroplasty using PFC prosthesis underwent reoperation.There were no significant differences in postoperative HSS score,range of motion of knee and patient satisfaction between the Genesis Ⅱ group and the PFC group,while there were significant differences in patella score and patellar function score between them.Conclusion Postoperative anterior knee pain was related to the prosthesis design,rather than to the patella resurfacing.Genesis Ⅱ knee prosthesis was more friendly with patella than PFC knee prosthesis.

ABSTRACT

Objective This investigation was launched to characterize the relationship between some popular sports and the meniscus injury as well as the impairment extent due to practice duration.Methods The overall 819 women aged 20-49 years from clinic service,hospital,community and gymnasium were selected to join the investigation.The participants practice yoga or any other popular sports including badminton,jogging,climbing hills for at least one hour per day.The subjects were diagnosed with meniscus injury by means of physical examination and MR imaging.All of the subjects were therefore divided into the case(273)and the control(546)pools.The nested case-control model was applied to assess the relative risk of the meniscus.The 181 yoga subjects had been further divided into three sub-groups of 3-6 months,6-12 months and over 12 months,and they were accordingly analyzed with the variables of the age,body mass index(BMI)and Lysholm score.Results The study showed that yoga was associated with higher risk(OR=1.621,P=0.008)of meniscus injury,but the other sports showed no statistically significant risk (badminton 0R=1.028,jogging OR=1.116,climbing hills OR=1.259).The trainees appeared to be statistically different between the groups of 3-6 months and over 12 months on the items of the Lysholm score(P=0.006)and BMI(P=0.003).Conclusion Yoga plays a risky role on the issue of meniscus injury comparing some other popular sports among young women.The yoga players who exercise longer got lower Lysholm scores and lighter weight.

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss biomechanical mechanism of reconstructed joint capsule ligament stabilizing hip joint by means of three-dimensional finite element analysis.Methods A finite element model of total hip arthroplasty(THA)including ischiofemoral ligament reconstruction was construtted by using finite element analysis software Unigraphics NX 2.0 and SolidWorks 2006 to simulate seated leg crossing and obtain peak resisting moment and range of motion prior to impingement.Results The current form of finite element model was characterized by large deformation multi-body contact,large interfacial sliding and high elasticity and could clearly reflect real anatomy and biomechanical behavior of ischiofemoral ligaments.Compared with model with only metal,model of ischiofemoral ligament reconstruction could reduce the peak polyethylene stress at the impingement site and at the head egress site by typically 17%and 31%respectively,increase peak resisting moment by nearly 57%and provide 2.29-fold stability.Conclusions As a discrete structure within the posterior capsule of the hip joint,the ischiofemoral ligament may be the most important contributor to the mechanical integrity of the posterior stability structure.The joint capsule ligament must be reconstructed in hip arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the results of total knee replacement (TKR) in treating post traumatic degenerative arthritis. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on the results of TKR that performed in 11 patients with post traumatic degenerative arthritis due to a previous fracture around knee from 1997 to 2002. There were one female and 10 males with an average age of 59 years (31 76 years). The time from fracture to TKR averaged 8.7 years (2 27 years). Internal fixation was performed in seven cases, among which the removal of the hardware at one stage at the time of TKR was performed in four and TKR in three. Lateral retinacular release was done in four cases, extensor mechanism realignment in one and collateral ligament reconstruction in two at the time of TKR. Fracture malunion appeared in two cases during operation. Results All the cases were followed up for average 36 months (12 72 months). The mean pre operative Knee Society Scores for 37 scores (10 69 scores) for knee and 42 (0 60) for function were improved significantly to mean post operative 85 (10 100) and 75 (20 100), respectively. The mean knee arc of motion improved from pre operative 83?to post operative 93?. Post operative manipulation under anesthesia for poor motion was carried out in four knees. No knee had aseptic loosening that required subsequent revisions. One knee developed superficial infection treated with debridement and retention of components. Conclusions Significant improvement in function and relief in pain is seen in the patients with previous fractures following subsequent TKR. However, special efforts to restore limb alignment, ensure correct component position and manage soft tissue balance may improve outcome of TKA.
