RESUMO

Robotic technology has reduced the errors of implant alignment in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), but its impact on functional recovery after UKA is poorly defined. The purpose of this study was to compare early functional recovery, pain levels, and satisfaction in UKA performed with either robotic assistance or conventional methods. A retrospective analysis was performed on 89 matched consecutive patients who underwent outpatient UKA by a single physician using either conventional instruments (n = 39) or robotic methods (n = 50), with otherwise identical perioperative protocols. Outcomes studied included Lower Extremity Functional Score (LEFS), new Knee Society Score (KSS), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS-JR.), VR/SF-12, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, and perioperative opioid consumption. Patients in the robotic cohort had superior early functional outcomes, with greater LEFS (conventional = 23; robotic = 31) at 1 week post-op (p=0.015) and KOOS-JR (conventional = 74; robotic = 81) at up to 6 months post-op (p=0.037); these two values remained statistically significant after mixed-model regression analysis (p=0.010; p=0.023), respectively. At 1 year post-op, expectations were more likely to be met in those who received robotic assistance (p=0.06). No differences were reported with respect to postoperative opioid usage (p=0.320), reoperations (p=1.00), and complications (p=0.628). Robotic-assisted UKA resulted in more rapid recovery and less early postoperative pain and were more likely to meet expectations than conventional UKA, although functional differences equilibrated by 1 year postoperatively. Further follow-up is necessary to determine if implant durability is impacted by robotics.

RESUMO

Technology, including robotics, has been developed for use in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to improve accuracy and precision of bone preparation, implant positioning, and soft tissue balance. The NAVIO™ System (Smith and Nephew, Pittsburgh, PA, United States) is a handheld robotic system that assists surgeons in planning implant positioning based on an individual patient's anatomy and then preparing the bone surface to accurately achieve the plan. The surgical technique is presented herein. In addition, initial results are presented for 128 patients (mean age 64.7 years; 57.8% male) undergoing UKA with NAVIO. After a mean of follow-up period of 2.3 years, overall survivorship of the knee implant was 99.2% (95% confidence interval 94.6-99.9%). There was one revision encountered during the study, which was due to persistent soft tissue pain, without evidence of loosening, subsidence, malposition or infection. These initial results suggest a greater survivorship than achieved in the same follow-up time intervals in national registries and cohort studies, though further follow-up is needed to confirm whether this difference is maintained at longer durations.

RESUMO

Musculoskeletal infections (MSKI) remain the bane of orthopedic surgery, and result in grievous illness and inordinate costs that threaten healthcare systems. As prevention, diagnosis, and treatment has remained largely unchanged over the last 50 years, a 2nd International Consensus Meeting on Musculoskeletal Infection (ICM 2018, https://icmphilly.com) was completed. Questions pertaining to all areas of MSKI were extensively researched to prepare recommendations, which were discussed and voted on by the delegates using the Delphi methodology. The questions, including the General Assembly (GA) results, have been published (GA questions). However, as critical outcomes include: (i) incidence and cost data that substantiate the problems, and (ii) establishment of research priorities; an ICM 2018 research workgroup (RW) was assembled to accomplish these tasks. Here, we present the result of the RW consensus on the current and projected incidence of infection, and the costs per patient, for all orthopedic subspecialties, which range from 0.1% to 30%, and $17,000 to $150,000. The RW also identified the most important research questions. The Delphi methodology was utilized to initially derive four objective criteria to define a subset of the 164 GA questions that are high priority for future research. Thirty-eight questions (23% of all GA questions) achieved the requisite > 70% agreement vote, and are highlighted in this Consensus article within six thematic categories: acute versus chronic infection, host immunity, antibiotics, diagnosis, research caveats, and modifiable factors. Finally, the RW emphasizes that without appropriate funding to address these high priority research questions, a 3rd ICM on MSKI to address similar issues at greater cost is inevitable.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) has generally low rates of wear and osteolysis at 10 years, but component position may become important with longer follow-up. At 5-13 years, neither acetabular component lateral opening angle nor version were significantly correlated to wear. In the present study, we analyzed the effects of femoral anteversion and combined anteversion on XLPE wear. METHODS: Forty-two well-functioning primary total hip arthroplasties in 36 patients, performed by a single surgeon via a posterior approach, were followed for a minimum of 5 years (mean, 7.1 years; range, 5.0-10.3). All hips had a modular, XLPE liner with a ≥36-mm bearing. Femoral anteversion was measured on the modified Budin view. Wear was measured on radiographs using a validated, computer-assisted, edge-detection-based algorithm. The mean lateral opening angle was 40.4° (range, 22.6°-50.3°). The mean acetabular version was 19.1° (range, 11.3°-27.5°). Neither of these variables was significantly correlated to wear. Effects of femoral anteversion and combined anteversion on XLPE wear were assessed using linear and polynomial regression analysis. RESULTS: Femoral anteversion (mean, 18.4°; range, 6.8°-30.7°) was significantly correlated to linear wear (mean, 0.06 mm/y; range, 0-0.16), showing an inverse parabolic relationship with the least wear occurring at 18.2° (P = .02). Combined anteversion (mean, 37.2°; range, 21.8°-54.3°) showed a similar significant relationship with the least wear at 38.1° (P < .001). Based on regression, combined anteversion between 24.6° and 50.4° resulted in linear wear rates less than 0.1 mm/y. CONCLUSION: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to identify femoral anteversion as an independent factor influencing XLPE wear, with least wear occurring around 18°. At 5-10 years, average linear wear of XLPE is below 0.1 mm/y over a 25°-50° range of combined anteversion, with the least wear around 38°. Femoral-acetabular mating is a product of both components. Femoral component version and combined anteversion had a greater effect on wear than acetabular component lateral opening angle. Additional studies are warranted, but these results indicate that the sensitivity of wear studies is increased with version assessments.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) has demonstrated significantly reduced wear and osteolysis into the second decade for total hip arthroplasty. There is a relative paucity of data with ≥36-mm bearings. Issues include potential effects of reduced liner thickness and component position on wear, osteolysis, and mechanical failure of the bearing. METHODS: Radiographs of 48 primary total hip arthroplasties with ≥36-mm modular XLPE bearings were analyzed at a minimum 5 years postoperative on serial radiographs using a validated, edge-detection-based algorithm. Subgroups were examined to assess the effect of bearing diameter, liner thickness, acetabular abduction angle, and acetabular anteversion on XLPE wear. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in volumetric wear when subgroups were stratified by component factors: liner thickness (<6.5 mm vs ≥6.5 mm) 40.69 mm3/y vs 24.47 mm3/y, respectively (P = .315); acetabular component abduction angle (<45° vs ≥45°): 38.68 mm3/y vs 27.8 mm3/y, respectively (P = .522); acetabular anteversion (<20° vs ≥20°): 41.32 mm3/y vs 31.79 mm3/y, respectively (P = .521). There were no dislocations, mechanical failures, or revisions. There were 7 hips with volumetric wear rates ≥80 mm3/y; 1 had possible osteolysis. CONCLUSION: Larger-diameter XLPE wear was not measurably affected by liner thickness, acetabular abduction angle, or acetabular anteversion. However, there is a trend for increasing volumetric wear with increasing bearing size. Wear outliers do occur, and continued follow-up of larger-diameter XLPE bearings is warranted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patient activity influences polyethylene wear. However, it is unclear how individual activity changes with patient aging after THA. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: We quantified changes in individual gait cycles and gait speed, assessed age-related differences in these parameters, and determined their relationship to polyethylene wear. METHODS: A microprocessor was worn on the ankle to quantify the activity of 14 healthy patients with a well-functioning THA at two time periods: early (within 3.5 years of implantation) and late (10-13 postoperative years). Wear was measured on serial radiographs using edge detection-based software. RESULTS: Mean activity decreased by 16% from the early to the late period: 2.04 million gait cycles/year to 1.71 million gait cycles/year. Mean gait speed decreased by 9%: 15.4 cycles/minute to 14.0 cycles/minute. The activity of the 10 patients who were younger than 65 years at surgery decreased by 14% (2.34 million gait cycles/year to 2.02 million gait cycles/year), while the four patients 65 years or older at surgery decreased by 28% (1.29 million gait cycles/year to 0.94 million gait cycles/year). Gait speed was 26% slower for patients 65 years or older than for patients younger than 65 years. The mean linear penetration rate decreased by 42% from the first 5 years (early wear rate) to the next 8 years (late wear rate, 5-13 years): 0.043 mm/year to 0.025 mm/year. CONCLUSIONS: The greatest patient activity and wear occurred during the first 5 years. Walking speed and gait cycles both decreased with aging, resulting in deceasing wear over time.
