RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative fixed flexion deformity is a known complication of knee replacement surgery. We present our results of revision surgery for treatment of isolated fixed flexion deformity after knee replacement. METHODS: 32 patients had revision knee replacement for fixed flexion deformity and were included in this retrospective study. Minimum follow up period was 28 months. RESULTS: Two different surgical interventions had been done in these patients. Group 1 (15 patients) had revision of the femoral component, posterior capsular release and tibial component was not revised. Group 2 (18 Patients) had revision of both femoral and tibial components. One patient was included in both groups as she had both interventions. The extent of preoperative flexion deformity in group 1 was from 15 to 40 deg (mean 20.6 deg). Postoperative range of extension was 0 to 20 deg (mean 8.2 deg). In group 2, preoperative flexion deformity was 10 to 25 deg (mean 16.9 deg) and postoperative flexion deformity was 0 to 20 deg (mean 4.2 deg). The difference in improvement between the two groups was not statistically significant on Mann Whitney U test (two tailed p value 0.181) for non normal distribution. Improvement in Oxford knee score following surgery was only 1 point in both groups. CONCLUSION: Revision for isolated fixed flexion deformity leads to improvement in range of extension, but improvement in clinical score is marginal. The choice of preservation or revision of the tibial component did not make a significant difference to the outcome.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Management of periprosthetic femoral fractures is challenging. Vancouver classification is universally accepted for fracture description and management algorithm. Guidelines for the treatment of type B1 fracture is open reduction and internal fixation. The difficulty involved in managing this group is evidenced by the array of treatment options described in the literature. METHODS: Thirty two patients with Vancouver type B1 fracture treated with osteosynthesis using cable plate (between 2007 and 2015) were reviewed retrospectively. There were 21 females and 11 males with an average age of 81yrs (56-96 years). The average follow-up was 21 months. All patients were reviewed clinically and radiologically until fracture united or patient re-operated. Postoperative protocol followed was six weeks toe touch weight bearing, 6 weeks partial weight bearing and then full weight bearing if there was no displacement. Post-operative radiographs were evaluated for fracture union. Statistical analysis was done using contingency tables with Fishers exact test and a p-value < 0.05 for significance. RESULTS: In twenty four patients fracture union was achieved. Non-union was recorded in four patients. Comparing the different fracture patterns all non-unions occurred in the fractures which were short oblique or transverse at the cemented stem tip (p = 0.001). Fractures were more common in female patients and associated more with the uncemented femoral stems, but it was not associated with increased rate of non-union (p = 0.68). All failed osteosynthesis were revised successfully using long stem prosthesis. Two patients died within 2 months, one patient died within 4 months, one patient was lost to follow-up. CONCLUSION: Transverse or short oblique periprosthetic fractures around tip of cemented femoral stems can have high failure rates with just internal fixation. Revision arthroplasty may be the preferred option if possible otherwise may need to supplement fixation with cortical onlay graft. We should consider subcategorising Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic fractures into groups based on the pattern and fracture level in relation to the femoral stem.
