ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Risk factors (RF) associated with aseptic loosening (AL) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the anatomical shape variations in relation to the inner-diameter of the femur and the tibia as prognostic RF for AL of full hinge prosthesis (FHP) in primary and revision TKA. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We retrospectively examined all patients, who underwent revision surgery (2003-2018) due to AL of the FHP in primary (n = 38) and revision TKA (n = 46). Diagnosis-appropriate controls without AL at minimum follow-up of 24 months were randomly collected for each group. Besides other risk factors, we also measured the inner diameter of the femur according to the Citak classification and of the tibia on anteroposterior radiographies.RESULTS:
RF for AL are younger age in primary and revision as well as > 1 previous surgeries in revision TKA. The femoral index was shown to be a RF for AL in revision TKA (p = 0.001), but not in primary TKA. The novel tibial index was associated with AL in primary with AUC 0.776 (95% CI 0.67, 0.88), 65.8% sensitivity, 86.6% specificity and in revision TKA with AUC 0.817 (95% CI 0.73, 0.91), 82.6% sensitivity and 71.7% specificity.CONCLUSION:
This is the first study to calculate the tibial measurements and the tibial index according to Citak et al. and to identify them as prognostic RF for AL of the full hinge knee prosthesis in TKA and confirm the femoral index as a RF for AL also in revision full hinge knee prosthesis. Therefore, the preoperative radiological evaluation should include the analysis of the anatomical shape variants in order to select the appropriate prosthesis design with a possibly enhanced prognosis.Palavras-chave
