RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the commonest reason for revision after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We assessed the risk factors for revision due to PJI following TKA based on the Finnish Arthroplasty Register (FAR). PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 62,087 primary condylar TKAs registered between June 2014 and February 2020 with revision for PJI as the endpoint. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the first PJI revision using 25 potential patient- and surgical-related risk factors as covariates. RESULTS: 484 knees were revised for the first time during the first postoperative year because of PJI. The HRs for revision due to PJI in unadjusted analysis were 0.5 (0.4-0.6) for female sex, 0.7 (0.6-1.0) for BMI 25-29, and 1.6 (1.1-2.5) for BMI > 40 compared with BMI < 25, 4.0 (1.3-12) for preoperative fracture diagnosis compared with osteoarthritis, and 0.7 (0.5-0.9) for use of an antimicrobial incise drape. In adjusted analysis the HRs were 2.2 (1.4-3.5) for ASA class III-IV compared with class I, 1.7 (1.4-2.1) for intraoperative bleeding ≥ 100 mL, 1.4 (1.2-1.8) for use of a drain, 0.7 (0.5-1.0) for short duration of operation of 45-59 minutes, and 1.7 (1.3-2.3) for long operation duration > 120 min compared with 60-89 minutes, and 1.3 (1.0-1.8) for use of general anesthesia. CONCLUSION: We found increased risk for revision due to PJI when no incise drape was used. The use of drainage also increased the risk. Specializing in performing TKA reduces operative time and thereby also the PJI rate.

Background and purpose - Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication and more information on risk factors for PJI is required to find measures to prevent infections. Therefore, we assessed risk factors for PJI after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in a large patient cohort.Patients and methods - We analyzed 33,337 primary THAs performed between May 2014 and January 2018 based on the Finnish Arthroplasty Register (FAR). Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for first PJI revision operation using 25 potential patient- and surgical-related risk factors as covariates.Results - 350 primary THAs were revised for the first time due to PJI during the study period. The hazard ratios for PJI revision in multivariable analysis were 2.0 (CI 1.3-3.2) for ASA class II and 3.2 (2.0-5.1) for ASA class III-IV compared with ASA class I, 1.4 (1.1-1.7) for bleeding > 500 mL compared with < 500 mL, 0.4 (0.2-0.7) for ceramic-on-ceramic bearing couple compared with metal-on-polyethylene and for the first 3 postoperative weeks, 3.0 (1.6-5.6) for operation time of > 120 minutes compared with 45-59 minutes, and 2.6 (1.4-4.9) for simultaneous bilateral operation. In the univariable analysis, hazard ratios for PJI revision were 2.3 (1.7-3.3) for BMI of 31-35 and 5.0 (3.5-7.1) for BMI of > 35 compared with patients with BMI of 21-25.Interpretation - We found several modifiable risk factors associated with increased PJI revision risk after THA to which special attention should be paid preoperatively. In particular, high BMI may be an even more prominent risk factor for PJI than previously assessed.

Because of the increasing number of total hip arthroplasties (THAs), even a small proportion of complications after the operation can lead to substantial individual difficulties and health-care costs. The aim of this study was to develop simple-to-use risk prediction models to assess the risk of the most common reasons for implant failure to facilitate clinical decision-making and to ensure long-term survival of primary THAs. METHODS: We analyzed patient and surgical data reported to the Finnish Arthroplasty Register (FAR) on 25,919 primary THAs performed in Finland between May 2014 and January 2018. For the most frequent adverse outcomes after primary THA, we developed multivariable Lasso regression models based on the data of the randomly selected training cohort (two-thirds of the data). The performances of all models were validated using the remaining, independent test set consisting of 8,640 primary THAs (one-third of the data) not used for building the models. RESULTS: The most common outcomes within 6 months after the primary THA were revision operations due to periprosthetic joint infection (1.1%), dislocation (0.7%), or periprosthetic fracture (0.5%), and death (0.7%). For each of these outcomes, Lasso regression identified subsets of variables required for accurate risk predictions. The highest discrimination performance, in terms of area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), was observed for death (0.84), whereas the performance was lower for revisions due to periprosthetic joint infection (0.68), dislocation (0.64), or periprosthetic fracture (0.65). CONCLUSIONS: Based on the small number of preoperative characteristics of the patient and modifiable surgical parameters, the developed risk prediction models can be easily used to assess the risk of revision or death. All developed models hold the potential to aid clinical decision-making, ultimately leading to improved clinical outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic Level III.

RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Reconstruction of acetabulum in case of bone defects can be challenging. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the 10-year survival of trabecular tantalum metal (TM) acetabulum component in revision hip arthroplasty operations and to evaluate complications. METHODS: A total of 100 consecutive acetabulum revision hip arthroplasties (100 patients) were operated on between May 2004 and October 2006 at Kuopio University Hospital. The mean follow-up time was 9.4 years and the median was 11.5 years (SD 4.118; range 0.1-13.4 years). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to study the survival of patients to re-revision surgery. Intra- and postoperative complications and reasons for re-revision were evaluated. RESULTS: The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a cumulative proportion of revision hip survivorship of 66% at 13.4 years (SE 0.403, 95% CI, 10.886-12.466) based on the need for further re-revision surgery for any major reason. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of time to re-revision surgery due acetabular component loosening showed a cumulative proportion of survivorship of 98.9% at 13.4 years (SE 0.136; 95% CI, 12.998-13.529). There were a total of 41/100 complications and the most common complication was dislocation (24/100). Re-revision for any major reason was performed on 18/100 of the revision arthroplasties. The mean time to re-revision was 4.9 years (SD 5.247; range 0.1-13.2 years). DISCUSSION: The trabecular TM acetabular component gives excellent outcomes regarding stability and fixation to the acetabulum in acetabulum revision hip arthroplasty at a minimum of ten years of follow-up. However, acetabular component malposition and the small head size (28 mm) are risk factors for dislocation.

INTRODUCTION: Dislocation of large-diameter head (LDH) metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) or hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is a rare complication. This study aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors for dislocation of LDH MoM THAs and HRAs. METHODS: This retrospective analysis considered 4038 cementless LDH MoM THAs and HRAs, 3207 THAs in 2912 patients and 831 HRAs in 757 patients. The end of follow-up was revision due to dislocation. Incidence of dislocation was evaluated from this study population of 4038, and study groups were formed. The study was designed as a case-control study, and a threefold stratified randomised control group was formed. Demographic data were collected and radiological analyses were performed in the study groups. RESULTS: There were 26/3207 (0.8%) early dislocations in the THA group, and 6/831 (0.7%) in the HRA group ( p = 0.9). Most LDH THA dislocations occurred in a group with head size ⩽ 38âmm (18/26) ( p < 0.001). In dislocated hips, there were more dysplastic acetabula and post-traumatic hips than in the control group ( p = 0.036). In the dislocation group, the mean acetabulum component anteversion angle was 19.6° (standard deviation [SD] 13.4°) and in the control group it was 23.2° (SD 10.4°) ( p = 0.006); 7/32 (21.8%) of dislocated THAs needed revision surgery, and mean time to revision from the index surgery was 1.2 (SD 2.6)âyears. DISCUSSION: Dislocations occurred more often in THAs of head size ⩽ 38âmm and with a smaller anteversion angle of the acetabulum component. Hip dysplasia and post-traumatic osteoarthritis were more common in patients with dislocation.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intraoperative periprosthetic femoral fracture is a known complication of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA). We determined the incidence of--and risk factors for--intraoperative calcar fracture, and assessed its influence on the risk of revision. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective analysis included 3,207 cementless THAs (in 2,913 patients). 118 intraoperative calcar fractures were observed in these hips (3.7%). A control group of 118 patients/hips without calcar fractures was randomly selected. The mean follow-up was 4.2 (1.8-8.0) years. Demographic data, surgical data, type of implant, and proximal femur morphology were evaluated to determine risk factors for intraoperative calcar fracture. RESULTS: The revision rates in the calcar fracture group and the control group were 10% (95% CI: 5.9-17) and 3.4% (CI: 1.3-8.4), respectively. The revision rate directly related to intraoperative calcar fracture was 7.6%. The Hardinge approach and lower age were risk factors for calcar fracture. In the fracture group, 55 of 118 patients (47%) had at least one risk factor, while only 23 of118 patients in the control group (20%) had a risk factor (p = 0.001). Radiological analysis showed that in the calcar fracture group, there were more deviated femoral anatomies and proximal femur bone cortices were thinner. INTERPRETATION: Intraoperative calcar fracture increased the risk of revision. The Hardinge approach and lower age were risk factors for intraoperative calcar fracture. To avoid intraoperative fractures, special attention should be paid when cementless stems are used with deviant-shaped proximal femurs and with thin cortices.
