RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Condylar constrained knee prostheses (CCK) are increasingly used in revision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA), but the clinical effectiveness and long-term survival remain a debate. The purpose of this study is to report the long-term clinical and radiographic outcome, implant survival rate, and surgical safety of revision total knee arthroplasty with condylar constrained knee prosthesis. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed on patients undergoing rTKA with CCK. The cases who received rTKA with CCK from January 2005 to January 2022 were selected. The duration of operation, the estimated perioperative blood loss, and the intraoperative blood transfusion rate were recorded to evaluate surgical safety. The pain visual analog scale (VAS), range of motion (ROM), the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, the Knee Society Score (KSS), the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and the Oxford knee score (OKS) was recorded to assess clinical outcome. Standard anteroposterior, lateral, skyline and long-standing AP radiographs of the lower limbs were conducted to assess radiographic outcome. Implant survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival estimates. RESULTS: Fifty-five cases were followed up for an average of 9.6 years (1-18 years), including 16 males and 38 females, with an average age of 66 and an average BMI of 26.9 kg/m2. The main reasons for revision were periprosthetic infection (32 knees, 58.2%) and aseptic loosening (13 knees, 23.6%). The duration of operation was 149 ± 56.2 min. The perioperative blood loss was 973.6 ± 421.6 ml. At the last follow-up, VAS (8.0 ± 1.1 to 1.3 ± 1.4), ROM (82.7° ± 26.1° to 108.4° ± 11.8°), HSS (45.0 ± 10.4 to 85.3 ± 8.6), KSKS (38.4 ± 12.1 to 88.5 ± 12.0), KSFS (19.6 ± 12.9 to 68.8 ± 15.1), WOMAC (67.9 ± 12.5 to 14.4 ± 9.5), and OKS (9.9 ± 4.2 to 41.6 ± 7.7) were significantly improved (P < 0.001). A total of five complications were observed, all of which were periprosthetic infection. Non-progressive radiolucent lines were observed in 26 knees (47.3%). The 10-year survival rate for no operation was 96.0%. The ten year survival rate for no revision was 98.0%. CONCLUSION: The use of CCK prosthesis for rTKA can achieve good long-term efficacy and prosthesis survival.

INTRODUCTION: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common surgical intervention to treat joint diseases. However, TKA is associated with significant blood loss. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been used to reduce perioperative bleeding and postoperative blood transfusion. This study aims to explore the effectiveness and safety of intraosseous regional administration (IORA) of TXA in TKA and compare differences in perioperative blood loss between IORA of TXA, intravenous infusion of TXA, and combined IORA and intravenous infusion of TXA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This randomised controlled trial will enrol 105 patients with osteoarthritis who meet the inclusion criteria for unilateral TKA. Patients were randomly divided into three groups using the random number table method. Group A received 1.0 g of TXA via IORA, group B received 1.0 g of TXA via intravenous infusion 15 min prior to the tourniquet release, and group C received both IORA of 1.0 g of TXA and intravenous infusion of 1.0 g of TXA. The primary outcome measure is perioperative total blood loss. Secondary outcomes include bleeding events, venous thromboembolism events, inflammation reactions, other complications and knee function assessments. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Peking Union Medical College Hospital and registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry. Informed consent will be obtained from all the patients before enrolment. The trial will be conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice guidelines. The results of this study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations and social media platforms. The findings will provide valuable insights into the use of IORA of TXA in TKA and may lead to the development of new strategies for perioperative blood management in joint replacement surgery. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: The Ethics Committee of Peking Union Medical College Hospital (approval number: K2371); Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (trial registration number: ChiCTR2200066293).
