ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: La fractura de cadera es una causa de importante morbimortalidad y a menudo se asocia a una elevada tasa de transfusión sanguínea, terapia no exenta de complicaciones. El objetivo del estudio es evaluar los factores dependientes e independientes del acto transfusional, así como elaborar un algoritmo que nos permita realizar una toma de decisiones basada en un modelo estadístico racionalizando el empleo de sangre alogénica. Material y métodos: Estudio prospectivo sobre 100 pacientes mayores de 65 años intervenidos por fractura de cadera de forma consecutiva. Se analizaron datos demográficos, toma de fármacos, comorbilidad, analítica pre- y postoperatoria, tipo de fractura y los relativos a la cirugía valorando de forma uni- y bivariada los factores determinantes del acto transfusional para controlar el posible sesgo de confusión. Resultados: Tras la aplicación del modelo bivariante de regresión logística sólo la Hb al ingreso (p = 0.04, OR = 0.451) y el tipo de fractura (p = 0.003, OR = 5.479) se consideraron asociadas al acto transfusional. El valor de la Hb al ingreso genera una curva ROC con un área bajo la curva de 0.848, aceptable para valorar la probabilidad de transfusión. Un valor de Hb al ingreso inferior a 12.15 g/dl predeciría de forma correcta la transfusión con una sensibilidad de 80% y una especificidad de 85 %. Conclusiones: La presencia de anemia preoperatoria y la fractura extracapsular de cadera generan un alto riesgo de necesidad transfusional, mientras que es improbable en fracturas intracapsulares sin anemia al ingreso. En nuestra serie existe un valor analítico que predice de forma satisfactoria 80% de las transfusiones sanguíneas.


Abstract: Introduction: Hip fracture is a cause of major morbidity and mortality and is often associated with high blood transfusion rate, non-complication-free therapy. The objective of the study is to evaluate the factors dependent and independent of the transfusional act, as well as to elaborate an algorithm that allows us to make a decision making based on a statistical model rationalizing the use of blood. Material and methods: Prospective study on 100 patients older than 65 years intervened for hip fracture consecutively. We analyzed demographic data, drug taking, comorbidity, pre- and postoperative analytics, type of fracture and those related to surgery valuing uni- and bivariate determinants of the Transfusional Act to control the possible bias of confusion. Results: Following the application of the bivariate logistic regression model only the HB at the admission (p = 0.04, OR = 0.451) and the type of fracture (p = 0.003, OR = 5.479) were considered associated with the transfusion act. The value of initial HB generates a ROC curve with an area under the curve of 0.848, acceptable to assess the probability of transfusion. An initial HB value lower of 12.15 g/dl will predict the transfusion with a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 85%. Conclusion: The presence of preoperative anemia and extracapsular hip fractures generate a high risk of transfusion need, while it is unlikely in intracapsular fractures without anemia at admission. In our series there is an analytical value that predicts satisfactorily 80% of blood transfusions.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Computer-assisted surgery application in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has shown more accurate implant alignment compared with conventional instrumentation and is associated with more homogeneous alignment results. Although longer implant survival and superior clinical outcomes should be expected from navigated TKA, currently available evidence does not support this hypothesis. The aim of this study was to compare navigated TKA with conventional TKA regarding clinical and radiological outcomes after a 3-year follow-up under the hypothesis that navigated TKA would provide better outcomes than conventional TKA. MATERIAL AND METHOD: In a prospective multicentre study, 119 patients underwent navigated TKA and 80 patients received conventional instrumentation. Patients were evaluated at the baseline and at postoperative months 3, 12, 24, and 36. Analysis included the American Knee Society Score (KSS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Short Form-12 (SF12) Health Survey, and radiographic assessment. RESULTS: All clinical scores improved significantly for all patients during the follow-up but were significantly better in the navigation group. The percentage of patients showing a mechanical axis between 3° of varus and 3° of valgus was significantly higher in the ATR group (93%) than in the conventional TKA group (71%) (P<.01). CONCLUSIONS: The use of computer-assisted surgery in TKA provides more accurate mechanical alignment and superior short-term functional outcomes compared to conventional TKA.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: La reproducción de la correcta línea articular podría ser un buen índice para la obtención de resultados satisfactorios en la cirugía protésica de rodilla, aunque en la cirugía de revisión no se ha estudiado ampliamente. Es necesaria la búsqueda de un método sencillo y reproducible para evaluar esos resultados. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo entre Enero del 2000 y Diciembre del 2013. Se implantaron 97 artroplastías totales de revisión de rodilla. El grupo de estudio lo conformaron 67 pacientes. Para la realización de nuestro trabajo se evaluó la línea articular según el método descrito por Hofmann A. La evaluación de los resultados clínicos incluyó las siguientes variables primarias: flexión, extensión, rango de movimiento, WOMAC, SF-36, KSS (Knee Society Score) y KSS funcional. Se estudió la supervivencia de las artroplastías. Resultados: Las variables de flexión, extensión y rango de movimiento postoperatorio se correlacionaron estadísticamente con esta medición. El KSS se relacionó estadísticamente en su vertiente articular con la restauración de la línea articular. Para el resto de escalas, SF-36 y WOMAC, las puntuaciones fueron más altas pero no se correlacionó con la significación aceptada. Conclusión: Ante estos resultados podemos afirmar que la restauración de la correcta línea articular mejora los resultados clínicos de la cirugía de revisión de rodilla.


Abstract: Introduction: The reproduction of the anatomical joint line could be a good index to obtain good results in knee prosthesis surgery, although in revision surgery has not been enough studied. A search for a simple and reproducible method is needed to review these results. Material and methods: A retrospective study was conducted between January 2000 and December 2013. A total of 97 total revision knee arthroplasties were implanted. Finally, the study group consisted of 67 patients. To perform our study, the joint line was evaluated according to the method described by Hofmann A. The evaluation of the clinical results included the following main variables: Flexion, extension, range of motion, WOMAC, SF-36, KSS (Knee Society Score) and functional KSS. The survival of the arthroplasties was studied. (p = 0.05). Results: The variables of flexion, extension and range of postoperative movement are statistically correlated with this measure. The KSS was statistically related in its joint aspect with the restoration of the joint line. For the other scales, SF-36 and WOMAC, the figures were higher but did not correlate with the accepted p. Conclusion: In view of these results, we can say that the restoration of the anatomical joint line improves the clinical results of revision total knee arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Evaluar los resultados de un implante de poliuretano en 10 pacientes con dolor persistente tras meniscectomía parcial. Material y métodos. Estudio prospectivo descriptivo de 10 pacientes que fueron intervenidos para colocación artroscópica de un implante meniscal de poliuretano. Se realizó evaluación funcional, de resonancia magnética y radiología simple antes de la intervención, a los 6 meses, un año, y en el seguimiento final con un mínimo de dos años. La evaluación clínica incluyó las escalas de Lysholm, KOOS y EVA. En resonancia magnética (RM) se evaluó la morfología y la intensidad de la señal del implante según los criterios de Genovese et al. Resultados. Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre la media de puntuación de Lysholm antes de la cirugía (63,5 puntos), a los 6 meses (76,8 puntos) (p = 0,001), al año (83,3 puntos) (p < 0,001) y al final del seguimiento (84,4 puntos) (p < 0,001). En la puntuación del KOOS se hallaron diferencias significativas entre las medias en el preoperatorio (64,23 puntos) y 6 meses (73,66 puntos) (p = 0,001), un año (81,39 puntos) (p < 0,001) y el seguimiento final (83,34 puntos) (p < 0,001). Los valores promedio de la EVA fueron de 5,7 puntos en el preoperatorio, 3,6 puntos a los 6 meses (p < 0,001), 1,9 puntos al año (p < 0,001) y 1,9 puntos al final del seguimiento (p < 0,001). La radiología mostró cambios degenerativos en un caso. En la RM, el tamaño del implante y la intensidad de la señal de RM disminuyeron progresivamente, no llegando a alcanzar nunca los de un menisco normal. Conclusiones. Veinticuatro meses después de la cirugía se ha encontrado una mejora significativa en todos los parámetros clínicos, salvo en un paciente que precisó reintervención. El tamaño del implante se redujo y en ningún caso se alcanzó una imagen de RM similar a la de un menisco normal. El procedimiento demostró ser seguro y útil para el tratamiento del dolor persistente tras meniscectomía (AU)


Purpose. To present the results of a polyurethane meniscal scaffold implant in 10 patients with persistent pain after meniscectomy. Methods. Prospective, descriptive study of ten patients who underwent arthroscopic implantation of a polyurethane meniscal scaffold. Functional, MRI, and radiography assessment was performed pre-operatively and at 6-months, 1-year, and a final follow-up at a minimum of two years. Clinical evaluation included Lysholm score, KOOS and VAS. The MRI morphology and signal intensity of the implant were evaluated according to the criteria of Genovese et al. Results. Statistically significant differences were found between the mean Lysholm score before surgery (63.5 points), and that at 6 months (76.8 points) (p = .001), one year (83.3 points) (p < .001) and final follow-up (84.4 points) (p < .001). KOOS showed significant differences between before surgery (64.23 points), 6 months (73.66 points) (p = .001), one year (81.39 points) (p < .001) and final follow-up (83.34 points) (p < .001). The mean values for VAS were 5.7 points in the pre-operative evaluation, 3.6 points at 6 months-follow-up (p < .001), 1.9 points at one year (p < .001), and 1.9 points at final follow-up (p < .001). Radiology showed degenerative changes in one case. In MRI, the size of the implant and the intensity of the MRI signal gradually decreased, but it never changed to that of a normal meniscus. Conclusion. A significant improvement was found in all the clinical parameters 24 months after the surgery, except in one patient who underwent furher surgery. The scaffold reduced its size and but never achieved an MRI image similar to that of a normal meniscus (AU)


The procedure proved to be safe and useful for the treatment of persistent pain after meniscectomy (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Evaluar la influencia de la estabilidad mediolateral de las artroplastias totales de rodilla implantadas con navegación quirúrgica en sus resultados clínicos a corto plazo. Material y métodos: Estudio prospectivo multicéntrico de 111 pacientes intervenidos con artroplastia total de rodilla mediante cirugía asistida por ordenador. Los resultados clínicos y funcionales se evaluaron a los 3 y seis meses mediante las escalas KSS, WOMAC y SF-12 y se correlacionaron con la información que mostraba el sistema de navegación intraoperatoriamente en cuanto a la estabilidad mediolateral en extensión, a los 20° y a los 90° de flexión. Resultados: No se encontró relación entre los resultados clínicos y funcionales y la estabilidad mediolateral medida intraoperatoriamente. Conclusiones: Las variaciones en la estabilidad mediolateral de las artroplastias de rodilla no han mostrado una influencia significativa en los resultados clínicos a corto plazo (AU)
