RESUMO

PURPOSE: The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) on radiological and clinical outcomes after medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent MOWHTO (113 knees) at our hospital between September 2012 and June 2020 and who were followed up for > 2 years. The radiological and clinical outcomes were compared between the MMPRT group (52 knees), who included patients with MMPRT, and the non-MMPRT group (61 knees), who comprised patients without meniscal tear or with any type of meniscal tear other than MMPRT. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate factors affecting osteoarthritis (OA) progression after MOWHTO. RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 40.6 ± 14.2 months. The mean ages of the MMPRT and non-MMPRT groups were 56.9 ± 6.4 and 54.4 ± 6.1 years, respectively (p = 0.031). There was no significant difference in the last follow-up radiological and clinical outcomes between the two groups. In the logistic regression analysis, the postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle was a risk factor of OA progression after MOWHTO (odds ratio 0.7; 95% confidence interval 0.5-0.9; p = 0.006), and the type of medial meniscus tear was not associated with OA progression (p = n.s.). CONCLUSIONS: In the short- to mid-term follow-up of MOWHTO, the radiological or clinical outcomes of patients with MMPRT were not inferior to those of patients without MMPRT. Postoperative lower extremity alignment, but not MMPRT, was a factor influencing MOWHTO prognosis. Concurrent root repair in HTO will restore the anatomy better; however, its effect on progression of OA is yet to be proven. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The causes of primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) failure can be divided into septic and aseptic etiologies. It is unclear whether the etiology affects the infection rate after revision TKA. This systematic review was conducted to evaluate whether there is a difference in infection rates between septic and aseptic revision TKA. We hypothesized that infection rates would be higher after septic revision TKA. METHODS: The PubMed and Embase databases and the Cochrane Library were searched to find studies evaluating infection rates following septic and aseptic revision TKA. We included studies that compared the postoperative infection rates of a group that received revision TKA for aseptic failure and a group that received 1- or 2-stage revision TKA for septic failure. Studies on re-revision TKA and on revision surgery after partial knee arthroplasty were excluded, as were studies of debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR). RESULTS: Twelve studies were included in this systematic review. In studies in which 1- or 2-stage revision TKA was performed for septic failure, septic revision TKA had a significantly higher infection rate than aseptic revision TKA (odds ratio [OR], 6.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.54 to 30.33; p = 0.01). Similarly, in studies in which 2-stage revision TKA was performed for septic failure, septic revision TKA had a significantly higher infection rate than aseptic revision TKA (OR, 4.14; 95% CI, 2.33 to 7.36; p < 0.00001). In the comparison of revision TKA for aseptic loosening and septic revision TKA, septic revision TKA had a higher infection rate than aseptic revision TKA (OR, 4.45; 95% CI, 2.28 to 8.70; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Overall, septic revision TKA had a higher infection rate than aseptic revision TKA. Even when 2-stage revision TKA was performed for septic failure, the infection rate was higher after septic revision TKA than after aseptic revision. Surgeons should explain the relatively high infection rates to patients undergoing revision TKA for septic failure of their primary joint replacement. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level IV .

RESUMO

Occult pneumothorax in blunt trauma patients is often diagnosed only after computed tomography because supine chest X-ray (CXR) is preferred as an initial evaluation. However, improperly managed preexisting occult pneumothorax could threaten the vitality of patients. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the incidence, characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes of occult pneumothorax in a single trauma center. From 2020 to 2022, patients who were admitted to the level 1 trauma center were retrospectively investigated. Inclusion criteria focused on blunt chest trauma. Variables including demographic factors, image findings, injury-related factors, tube thoracostomy timing, and treatment results were evaluated. Of the 1621 patients, 187 who met the criteria were enrolled in the study: 32 with overt pneumothorax and 81 with occult pneumothorax. Among all of the pneumothorax cases, the proportion of occult pneumothorax was 71.7% (81/113), and its incidence in all admitted trauma victims was 5.0% (81/1621). Subcutaneous emphysema and rib fractures on supine CXR were risk factors for occult pneumothorax. Six patients underwent delayed tube thoracostomy; however, none had serious complications. Given that occult pneumothorax is common in patients with blunt chest trauma, treatment plans should be established that consider the possibility of pneumothorax. However, the prognosis is generally good, and follow-up is an alternative.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate factors that affect range of motion (ROM) following two-stage revision arthroplasty as a treatment for chronic periprosthetic knee infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 98 patients diagnosed with chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following primary total knee arthroplasty between January 2009 and December 2019 and then underwent two-stage revision arthroplasty were reviewed retrospectively. Multiple regression analysis was performed to evaluate the factors that affect ROM after two-stage revision arthroplasty. ROM after two-stage revision arthroplasty was used as a dependent variable, while age at the time of surgery, ROM at PJI diagnosis, ROM after the first-stage surgery, the interval between the first-stage surgery and the second-stage surgery, whether a re-operation was performed before the second-stage surgery, culture results (culture negative or culture positive), and body mass index (BMI) were used as independent variables. RESULTS: Multiple regression analysis (R2 = 0.843) revealed that among the independent variables, ROM (ß = 0.604, P < 0.001) after the first-stage surgery, whether a re-operation was performed before the second-stage surgery (ß = - 8.847, P < 0.001), the interval between the first-stage surgery and the second-stage surgery (ß = - 0.778, P = 0.003), and BMI (ß = - 0.698, P = 0.041) were associated with ROM after two-stage revision arthroplasty, the dependent variable. CONCLUSIONS: In two-stage revision arthroplasty for chronic periprosthetic knee infection, ROM after the first-stage surgery, whether a re-operation was performed before the second-stage surgery, the interval between the first-stage surgery and the second-stage surgery, and BMI were found to be factors that were associated with ROM after two-stage revision arthroplasty.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This double-blind, randomized, Phase III clinical trial was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of the novel divinyl sulfone cross-linked hyaluronate (YYD302) compared with the 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether cross-linked hyaluronate (Synovian) in patients with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: A total of 184 patients with osteoarthritis (Kellgren-Lawrence grade I-III) were randomized to 1 of 2 study groups (YYD302 group, n = 95; Synovian group, n = 89). A single injection of YYD302 or Synovian was given to both groups, and 182 participants completed the study (YYD302 group, n = 95; Synovian group, n = 87). The primary end point was the change in weight-bearing pain (WBP) at 12 weeks after the primary single injection. Secondary end points included the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score; the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index score; the Patient Global Assessment and Investigator Global Assessment; the range of motion, swelling, and tenderness of the target knee; OMERACT-OARSI responder rate; WBP responder rate (the proportion of patients achieving at least 20 mm or 40% decrease in WBP); and rate of rescue medicine use and its total consumption at weeks 2, 4, and 12. Based on the efficacy results at week 12, the responders were administered an additional single injection of the same study drug at week 24, and safety and efficacy were additionally assessed at week 36. FINDINGS: Mean changes of WBP at 12 weeks after the primary injection were -31.76 mm with YYD302 and -29.74 mm with Synovian, proving noninferiority of the YYD302 group to the Synovian group as the lower bound of the 95% CI (-4.3 to 8.3) was well above the predefined margin (-10 mm). At week 2, the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (total, pain, activities of daily living, and sports/recreation) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index scores (total, stiffness) were significantly better in the YYD302 group than in the Synovian group. There were no significant differences between the groups in all other end points. Local overall adverse events (pain, heat, erythema, or swelling) at the injection site were observed in 48.4% of the YYD302 group and in 47.7% of the Synovian group. No serious reactions were reported. There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups regarding re-injected patients (YYD302 group, n = 54; Synovian group, n = 46) in any of the efficacy outcomes at week 36. IMPLICATIONS: The results of this study support that YYD302 is comparable to Synovian in terms of the efficacy and safety of the intra-articular injection treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee joint. Furthermore, YYD302 provided faster improvements in some efficacy assessments compared with Synovian. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03561779.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The effect of negative culture on the treatment outcomes of chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is still controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the outcomes of two-stage revision in culture-negative chronic PJI differ from those in culture-positive PJI. METHODS: The patients who received two-stage revisions due to chronic PJI during the period between 2007 and 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. The culture-negative and culture-positive PJI group included 57 cases and 79 cases, respectively. The demographic data, as well as reoperation, mortality, reinfection, and failure rates of each group were evaluated. RESULTS: There was a significant difference in reoperation rate between the two groups for the period from the first-stage surgery to the second-stage revision arthroplasty (p = 0.045). The reoperation rate of the culture-positive group was 25.3% (20/79) whereas that of the culture-negative group was 10.5% (6/57). Among the 136 PJI cases, 97 cases (71.3%) received reimplantation surgery (culture-negative group, 43 cases; culture-positive group, 54 cases). No significant difference was noted between the culture-negative and culture-positive groups with respect to the number of cases that did not undergo reimplantation surgery and the reoperation, reinfection, mortality, and failure rates after two-stage surgery (p > 0.05, all parameters). CONCLUSIONS: The culture outcome had no significant effect on the outcome of the two-stage revision in patients with chronic PJI. The reoperation rate after first-stage surgery was significantly higher in the culture-positive group, but the overall failure rate did not significantly differ in both the groups. The presence of a negative culture might be a good prognostic factor for chronic PJI.

RESUMO

The demand for high-capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIB) in electric vehicles has increased. In this study, optimization to maximize the specific energy density of a cell is conducted using the LIB electrochemical model and sequential approximate optimization (SAO). First, the design of experiments is performed to analyze the sensitivity of design factors important to the specific energy density, such as electrode and separator thicknesses, porosity, and particle size. Then, the design variables of the cell are optimized for maximum specific energy density using the progressive quadratic response surface method (PQRSM), which is one of the SAO techniques. As a result of optimization, the thickness ratio of the electrode was optimized and the porosity was reduced to keep the specific energy density high, while still maintaining the specific power density performance. This led to an increase in the specific energy density of 56.8% and a reduction in the polarization phenomenon of 11.5%. The specific energy density effectively improved through minimum computation despite the nonlinearity of the electrochemical model in PQRSM optimization.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Many reports have described the relationship between medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) and meniscal extrusion on coronal magnetic resonance (MR) images. However, volumetric assessment of meniscal extrusion has not been performed, and the correlation between extrusion length and volume remains unclear. HYPOTHESIS: Extrusion in both length and volume would be greater in MMPRTs than that in the normal medial meniscus, and the extrusion length measured on coronal MR images would be correlated with the extrusion volume. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 20 knees who underwent isolated MMPRTs without trauma history were included in the MMPRT group, and another 20 knees with normal medial meniscus were selected as the control group. All 40 knees underwent 3-tesla MR imaging. The extrusion length of the medial meniscus was measured using coronal MR images only. Volumetric assessments of the meniscus were performed and analyzed via a semi-automatic segmentation. Group-wise comparisons of the extrusion length and volumetric values were conducted, and the correlation between the two measures in both groups was evaluated. RESULTS: The mean extrusion length of the medial meniscus in the MMPRT group was significantly longer (2.60 vs. 0.63mm; p<0.001) than that in the control group. The mean extrusion volume was also significantly higher in the MMPRT than that in the control group (770.93 vs. 193.80 mm3; p<0.001). The extrusion length was significantly and positively correlated with the extrusion volume in both groups (R=0.64; p=0.002 in MMPRT, R=0.73; p<0.001 in the control group). DISCUSSION: Semi-automatic segmentation was used to measure the volume of meniscal extrusion, which had previously only been estimated indirectly with the extrusion length on coronal MR images. MMPRTs significantly increased the extrusion in both measures. The extrusion length measured on coronal MR images was positively correlated with the extrusion volume in both groups. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, Case-control study.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To compare the differences with respect to clinical and graft survivorship and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between lateral (LMAT) and medial (MMAT) meniscus allograft transplantation. METHODS: Patients having a primary MAT between 1998 and 2016 were enrolled. The inclusion criteria were (1) patients who had a minimum 2-year follow-up and (2) patients who had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) >2 years after surgery. Knees with localized grade 4 articular cartilage lesions >3 cm2 at the time of MAT were excluded. Clinical failure was defined as follows: modified Lysholm score <65, meniscectomy >50% of the graft, meniscectomy to the meniscocapsular junction zone, conversion to revision MAT, or realignment osteotomy or arthroplasty. Graft failure was defined as follows: tears involving >50% of the graft or unhealed peripheral rim observed on MRI. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis with log-rank test was used to compare survivorship between LMAT and MMAT. Patient-reported outcomes were compared based on the Hospital for Special Surgery, modified Lysholm, and International Knee Documentation Committee subjective scores collected preoperatively and at the final follow-up. RESULTS: A total of 299 knees (249 LMAT, 50 MMAT, mean age 33.0 ± 9.8 years) were included. Twenty clinical [2 MMAT (4.0%), 18 LMAT (7.2%)] and 24 graft [2 MMAT (4.0%), 22 LMAT (8.8%)] failures were identified. The mean clinical follow-up period was 63.1 ± 43.1 months (range 2 to 248), and MRI follow-up period was 62.6 ± 43.8 months (range 2 to 248). No significant differences in clinical and graft survivorship were found between the LMAT and MMAT groups (P = .481, P = .271, respectively). PROs preoperatively and at last follow-up also showed no significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSION: No significant differences in clinical survivorship, graft survivorship, and PROs were found between the LMAT and MMAT groups. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: This meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the differences in preoperative comorbidities, postoperative mortality, the rate of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), and revision rate after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) between patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD)(CKD group) and patients with normal kidney function (non-CKD group). METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library for studies assessing the effect of CKD on TJA outcome. This meta-analysis included studies that (1) compared the outcomes of TJA between the CKD and non-CKD groups; (2) compared the outcomes of TJA based on CKD stage; and (3) evaluated the risk factors for morbidity or mortality after TJA. We compared the mortality, PJI, and revision rate between CKD and non-CKD groups, and between dialysis-dependent patients (dialysis group) and non-dialysis-dependent patients (non-dialysis group). RESULTS: Eighteen studies were included in this meta-analysis. In most studies that assessed preoperative comorbidities, the number and severity of preoperative comorbidities were reported to be higher in the CKD group than in the non-CKD group. The risk of mortality was found to be higher in the CKD and dialysis groups compared with the respective control groups. In the studies based on administrative data, the unadjusted odds ratio (OR) of PJI was significantly higher in the CKD group than in the non-CKD group; however, no significant difference between the groups was noted in the adjusted OR. After total hip arthroplasty (THA), the risk of PJI was higher in the dialysis group than in the non-dialysis group. No significant difference was noted between the groups in the rate of PJI following total knee arthroplasty. The revision rate did not significantly differ between the CKD and non-CKD groups in the studies that were based on administrative data. However, the unadjusted OR was significantly higher in the dialysis group than in the non-dialysis group. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative comorbidities and mortality risk were higher in the CKD and dialysis groups than in their respective control groups. The risk of revision was greater in the dialysis group than in the non-dialysis group, and the risk of PJI in the dialysis group became even greater after THA. Surgeons should perform careful preoperative risk stratification and optimization for patients with CKD scheduled to undergo TJA.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of patellar facet angle on pre- and postoperative patellofemoral alignment and the progress of arthritis of the patellofemoral joint in posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty (PS TKA) without patellar resurfacing. METHODS: Patients who had a PS TKA for a varus osteoarthritic knee who were followed up for more than 2 years were included in this study. The radiologic and clinical outcomes were compared between 72 knees (group A) whose patellar facet angle was greater than 126° (> 126°) and 32 knees (group B) whose patellar facet angle was smaller than or equal to 126° (≤ 126°). For the radiologic assessment, the Kellgren-Lawrence grade, mechanical femorotibial angle, Insall-Salvati ratio, patellar tilt angle, patellar displacement and the osteosclerosis of the patellar ridge were evaluated. The range of motion (ROM) and patient-reported outcomes (the Knee Society knee score, the Knee Society function score, the Feller patellar score, and the Kujala patellofemoral score) were used for the clinical assessment. RESULTS: The preoperative patellar tilt angle was 9.8° (standard deviation [SD] 5.5) and 14.6° (SD 4.1) in group A and group B, respectively, a significant difference (p < 0.001). Other preoperative radiologic parameters and preoperative patient-reported outcomes and ROM showed no significant difference between the two groups (all parameters (p > 0.05). At the last-follow-up, 22 knees (30.6%) showed progression of osteosclerosis of the patellar ridge in group A and 13 knees (40.6%) showed progression of osteosclerosis in group B (p = 0.371). The postoperative radiologic and clinical outcomes showed no significant difference between the two groups (all parameters, p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Although a narrow patellar facet angle was related to an increase of lateral tilting of the patella, it showed no impact on the preoperative clinical assessment. The radiologic and clinical outcomes evaluated after the PS TKA showed no statistical difference according to the patellar shape. Although the patellar shape evaluated by the patellar facet angle can partially affect the preoperative patellofemoral alignment, this study result indicated insignificant clinical relevance of the patellar shape in the PS TKA.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Arthroscopic labral repair combined with capsular plication decreases joint volume and restores glenoid labral bumper height; thus, the procedure helps decrease capsular redundancy. However, the decreased volume and restored glenoid labral bumper height could change over time, which could influence the outcome of the operation. PURPOSE: To (1) measure glenoid labral bumper height and capsular volume quantitatively in serial computed tomography arthrography (CTA) and evaluate the relationship between bumper height and joint volume and (2) compare the difference in bumper height and joint volume between groups with and without apprehension after arthroscopic Bankart repair. STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Patients who had undergone arthroscopic Bankart repair between January 2012 and June 2016, and were assessed by CTA 3 to 6 months and 12 to 18 months after the operation were included. An image reconstruction program (3-dimensional slicer) was used to calculate inferior, anterior-inferior, and posterior-inferior joint volumes; the ratio of the anterior-inferior volume to the inferior volume was defined as the anterior-inferior volume fraction (VFAI). We also measured glenoid labral bumper height at the 5-, 4-, and 3-o'clock positions. RESULTS: A total of 50 patients were enrolled as study participants (mean age, 25.2 ± 9.29 years). Of these, 10 patients had either redislocation or apprehension, and 40 patients had neither. A significant correlation was observed between 5-o'clock glenoid labral bumper height and VFAI on early CTA (3-6 months) and late CTA (12-18 months) (early CTA: Pearson coefficient, -0.335, P = .040; late CTA: Pearson coefficient, -0.468, P = .003). VFAI at the early CTA was 42.20 ± 10.15 in the group with apprehension and 33.49 ± 9.66 in the group without apprehension; a significant difference was observed. VFAI at the late CTA was 45.84 ± 11.97 in the group with apprehension and 37.65 ± 9.70 in the group without apprehension and thus showed a significant difference between the 2 groups. However, the 3-, 4-, and 5-o'clock glenoid labral bumper heights on early and late CTAs did not show a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION: Early postoperative VFAI is related to postoperative apprehension and redislocation and might be reduced by increasing the 5-o'clock glenoid labral bumper height.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To perform a radiographic assessment of osteoarthritis, progression after partial meniscectomy (PM) in degenerative medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) in relation to preoperative mechanical axis (MA). The hypothesis is that neutral-aligned knees with degenerative MMPRTs have better radiographic outcomes than those of varus-aligned knees after arthroscopic PM. METHODS: Records of 114 patients with degenerative MMPRTs and Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade ≤ 2 osteoarthritis, who underwent PM, had preoperative weight-bearing hip-to-ankle radiographs from 2004 to 2014, and were followed-up for at least 5 years were reviewed retrospectively. The mean follow-up period was 8.3 ± 2.8 years. Preoperative MA values were used to classify the patients into either a Neutral (N valgus 3° to varus 3°; n = 60) or Varus-aligned group (V varus > 3°; n = 54). Joint space width (JSW; mm) and KL grade (0/1/2/3/4) were measured preoperatively and finally on weight-bearing 45° flexion posteroanterior and anteroposterior radiographs, respectively. RESULTS: Preoperative JSW and KL grade did not differ significantly between the groups (N vs V; JSW 3.64 ± 0.83 vs 3.44 ± 0.81, P = 0.201; KL grade, 2/31/27/0/0 vs 0/22/32/0/0, P = 0.162); however, the final JSW and KL grade differed significantly between the groups (N vs V; JSW 3.03 ± 0.78 vs 2.07 ± 0.87; KL grade, 0/21/23/13/3 vs 0/10/26/21/6, both P < 0.001). The N group showed significantly less KL progression compared with the V group (N vs V; progression/no progression, 27/33 vs 42/12, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION: The progression of radiographic osteoarthritis after PM for degenerative MMPRTs was greater in varus-aligned knees than in neutral-aligned knees. PM should be considered cautiously in patients with varus-aligned knees. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Retrospective comparative study, Level III.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Femoral coronal bowing (FCB) has been reported to be a risk factor for mechanical malalignment after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, the effects of FCB on the long-term survivorship (when postoperative mechanical alignment (MA) is neutral after TKA) have not been determined. HYPOTHESIS: The effects of FCB on the cumulative survivorship after TKA may be significantly smaller compared with those of MA. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Consecutive 328 knees of 211 patients (10 males, 201 females) who underwent TKA between 1995 and 2009 (mean age of 64.2±6.7 years at the time of TKA, mean follow-up period of 11.9±2.5 years) were retrospectively evaluated. FCB and MA were evaluated using preoperative and immediate postoperative whole-leg anteroposterior radiographs, respectively. The patients were grouped according to FCB and postoperative MA, which included group A (FCB≤5°, MA≤3°), B (FCB>5°, MA≤3°), C (FCB>5°, MA>3°), and D (FCB≤5°, MA>3°). Primary end-point was defined as aseptic mechanical failures requiring revision TKA. Survivorship was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log-rank tests. Factors associated with the risk of aseptic mechanical failures were analyzed by Cox regression analysis. Preoperative and final follow-up clinical outcomes were assessed using Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scores. RESULTS: Group A, B, C, and D included 190, 73, 40, and 25 knees, respectively. The 10-year survivorship was similar between group A and B (96.3±1.4% vs. 98.6±1.4%; p=0.733) and group C and D (87.3±5.3 vs. 87.6±6.7%; p=0.974); however, it was significantly higher in group B than in group C (p=0.036) and in group A than in group D (p=0.005). Age (OR=0.991; 95% CI 0.906-1.085; p=0.002) and MA>3° (OR=3.645; 95% CI 1.744-7.604; p=0.001) were associated with the risk of aseptic mechanical failures. The mean preoperative and final HSS scores in the four groups were not significantly different. DISCUSSION: Marked FCB was not associated with long-term survivorship for knees with neutral alignment after TKA. However, non-neutral postoperative alignment reduced long-term survivorship for knees with marked FCB. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, Retrospective comparative cohort study.

RESUMO

Few studies have compared the accuracy of femoral component rotation in the measured resection technique according to the preoperative computed tomography (CT) and gap balancing technique. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether there is a difference in accuracy and outlier incidence of femoral component rotation between gap balancing and measured resection techniques with or without preoperative CT and to evaluate the difference in patellofemoral alignment on simple radiographs and clinical outcomes. In this retrospective study, we evaluated femoral component rotation angle on the clinical and surgical transepicondylar axis (FCRA-cTEA and FCRA-sTEA, respectively), patellar tilt angle, lateral patellar displacement, and patient-reported outcomes in the gap balancing technique (Group 1) and in the measured resection technique without (Group 2) and with (Group 3) preoperative CT. A total of 163 total knee arthoplasty (TKA) replacements were included in this study. Average FCRA-cTEA was -3.4 ± 2.6, -2.8 ± 2.1, and -1.8 ± 2.3 degrees in groups 1 to 3, respectively (p = 0.002). Average FCRA-sTEA was -0.2 ± 2.7, 0.5 ± 2.4, and 1.5 ± 2.1 degrees, respectively (p = 0.001). In an outlier analysis that evaluated femoral component rotation using cTEA as reference, no significant difference was observed between the three groups (40.8, 37.3, and 23.7%, respectively, p = 0.133). When sTEA was used as a reference, groups 1 and 3 showed an outlier incidence of 8.2 and 8.5%, respectively, whereas this incidence was as high as 23.5% in group 2 (p = 0.030). No statistically significant group difference in patellofemoral alignment and patient-reported outcome was observed. In the measured resection technique with preoperative CT, the femoral component was externally rotated approximately 1 degree more than in the gap balancing or measured resection technique without preoperative CT. However, the difference in FCRA among the three techniques was not linked to the difference in patellofemoral alignment or patient-reported outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to compare the functional outcomes and recurrence rate of infection between patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery and two-stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for infected arthritic knees. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 52 patients (52 knees) with advanced knee joint arthritis who underwent arthroscopic surgery or two-stage TKA using articulating cement spacer (ACS) for knee joint infection between January 2009 and November 2013. Of the 52 patients (52 knees), 38 and 14 patients underwent arthroscopic surgery (AS group) and two-stage TKA using ACS (ACS-TKA group), respectively. Patient-reported outcomes (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and EuroQol-Visual Analog Scales (EQ-VAS)); range of motion; and recurrence rate of infection were evaluated. RESULTS: Recurrence of infection was observed in 7/38 patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery, all of whom received two-stage TKA using ACS. Regarding the functional outcomes of the ACS-TKA group obtained before conversion to TKA and those of the AS group obtained six months after arthroscopic surgery, the former group had better outcomes for KOOS pain, KOOS activities of daily living, KOOS quality of life, and EQ-VAS. Regarding the functional outcomes of the ACS-TKA group obtained during the last follow-up and after conversion to TKA and those of the AS group who underwent TKA after arthroscopic surgery, no significant between-group differences were observed. The infection recurrence rate was higher in the AS than in the ACS-TKA group. CONCLUSIONS: Considering infection control and functional outcomes, two-stage TKA using ACS can be an effective alternative treatment for patients with infected arthritic knees.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the healing rate of repaired meniscus and functional outcomes of patients who received all-inside meniscal repair using sutures or devices with concomitant arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among the patients who have ACL tear and posterior horn tear of medial or lateral meniscus, 61 knees who received all-inside repair using sutures (suture group, n = 28) or meniscal fixation devices (device group, n = 33) with concomitant ACL reconstruction during the period from January 2012 to December 2015, followed by second-look arthroscopy, were retrospectively reviewed. Healing status of the repair site was assessed by second-look arthroscopy. Through the clinical assessment, clinical success (negative medial joint line tenderness, no history of locking or recurrent effusion, and negative McMurray test) rate of the repaired meniscus and functional outcomes (International Knee Documentation Committee subjective score and Lysholm knee score) was evaluated. RESULTS: In a comparison of healing status of repaired meniscus evaluated by second-look arthroscopy, suture group had 23 cases of complete healing (82.1%), 4 cases of incomplete healing (14.3%), and 1 case of failure (3.6%). Device group had 18 cases of complete healing (54.5%), 4 cases of incomplete healing (24.2%), and 7 cases of failure (21.2%) (p = 0.048). Clinical success rate of the meniscal repair was 89.3% (25 cases) and 81.8% (27 cases) in suture group and device group, respectively (p = 0.488). No significant difference of functional outcomes was observed between the two groups (p > 0.05, both parameters). CONCLUSIONS: Among the patients who received meniscal repair with concomitant ACL reconstruction, suture group showed better healing status of repaired meniscus based on the second-look arthroscopy than device group. However, no significant between-group difference of clinical success rate and functional outcomes was observed.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of using intraoperative fluoroscopy on femoral and tibial tunnel positioning variability in single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. METHODS: A total of 80 consecutive patients with single-bundle ACL reconstruction between 2014 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 40 underwent ACL reconstruction without fluoroscopy (non-fluoroscopy group) and 40 underwent fluoroscopy-assisted ACL reconstruction (fluoroscopy group). Femoral and tibial tunnel locations were evaluated using a standardized grid system with three-dimensional computed tomography images. Femoral and tibial tunnel location variability was compared between the groups. RESULTS: The operation time was longer in the fluoroscopy group than in the non-fluoroscopy group (61.3 ± 5.2 min vs. 55.5 ± 4.5 min, p < 0.001). In the fluoroscopy group, a guide pin was repositioned in 16 (40%) cases on the femoral side and 2 (5%) cases on the tibial side. No significant difference in the femoral tunnel location was observed between the fluoroscopy and non-fluoroscopy groups (anterior-posterior plane, 29.0% ± 3.2% vs. 30.0% ± 6.1%; proximal-distal plane, 30.8% ± 4.8% vs. 29.4% ± 8.3%; all parameters, n.s.); variability was significantly lower in the fluoroscopy group (p < 0.001 for both anterior-posterior and proximal-distal planes). No significant difference in the tibial tunnel location and variability was observed between the fluoroscopy and non-fluoroscopy groups (medial-lateral plane, 45.8% ± 2.0% vs. 46.6% ± 2.4%; anterior-posterior plane, 31.2% ± 4.0% vs. 31.0% ± 5.4%) (all parameters, n.s.). CONCLUSIONS: Tunnel positioning with fluoroscopic assistance is feasible and effective in achieving consistency in femoral tunnel placement despite a slightly longer operation time. Intraoperative fluoroscopy can be helpful in cases wherein identifying anatomical landmarks on arthroscopy was difficult or for surgeons with less experience who performed ACL reconstruction. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: It is not clear whether long-term outcomes differ between computer-navigated and conventional total knee arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to perform a meta-analysis comparing the radiographic outcomes, the long-term functional outcomes, and survivorship between computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty and conventional total knee arthroplasty. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library to identify studies comparing long-term outcomes between computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty and conventional total knee arthroplasty. Randomized controlled trials with mean follow-up durations of >8 years were included. The meta-analysis compared radiographic outcomes (postoperative alignment), functional outcomes (range of motion and patient-reported outcomes), and survivorship of the 2 techniques. RESULTS: Nine studies were included. A meta-analysis of accuracy revealed better outcomes in computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty when compared with conventional total knee arthroplasty in terms of the sagittal alignment of the femoral component (risk ratio [RR], 0.69; [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.51 to 0.93]; p = 0.02) and the coronal alignment of the tibial component (RR, 0.75 [95% CI, 0.60 to 0.95]; p = 0.02). The mechanical axis of the lower extremity, the coronal alignment of the femoral component, and the sagittal alignment of the tibial component did not differ significantly between the 2 groups. The functional outcomes did not differ significantly between the 2 techniques. Both in terms of the revision rate and the incidence of aseptic loosening, there were no differences between the 2 techniques. CONCLUSIONS: Although computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty resulted in better outcomes in postoperative component alignment than conventional total knee arthroplasty, there were no significant differences in long-term functional outcomes and survivorship between the 2 techniques. To fully evaluate the utility of computer navigation in total knee arthroplasty, additional randomized controlled studies including diverse ethnic groups and countries, as well as studies evaluating the correlation between postoperative alignment and long-term survivorship, are necessary. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level I. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
