RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) has demonstrated encouraging outcomes in the treatment of knee cartilage defects, although limited research is available on its longer term (≥10 years) sustainability in the patellofemoral joint. PURPOSE: To report the clinical and radiological outcomes at ≥10 years in a prospectively recruited cohort of patients undergoing MACI in the patellofemoral joint and compare outcomes in patients undergoing MACI on the patella versus the trochlea. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: The current study prospectively enrolled 95 patients who underwent patellofemoral MACI, of whom 29 (13 patella, 16 trochlea) underwent concomitant tibial tubercle osteotomy. Patients were assessed preoperatively and at 2, 5, and ≥10 years using a range of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) including the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, the 36-item Short Form Health Survey, and the frequency and severity of knee pain as well as patient satisfaction, full active knee flexion and extension, and peak isokinetic knee extensor and flexor torques. High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed to assess pertinent graft parameters, as well as determine an overall MRI composite score, per the Magnetic Resonance Observation of Cartilage Repair Tissue scoring system. Results were analyzed according to the graft location (patella or trochlea). RESULTS: Of the 95 patients recruited, 82 patients (41 patella, 41 trochlea) were available for a clinical review at ≥10 years after surgery (mean follow-up, 11.9 years [range, 10-15 years]). For the whole patellofemoral MACI cohort, all PROMs significantly improved over time (P < .05), with no significant changes (P > .05) observed in any MRI-based score from 2 to ≥10 years after surgery. At ≥10 years, 90.2% (n = 74) were satisfied with MACI in relieving their knee pain, and 85.4% (n = 70) were satisfied with the improvement in their ability to participate in sports. No differences (P > .05) were observed in PROMs between those undergoing patellar MACI and those undergoing trochlear MACI, although a significant group effect was observed for limb symmetry indices of knee extensor (P = .009) and flexor (P = .041) strength, which were greater in those undergoing patellar (vs trochlear) MACI. No statistically significant differences (P > .05) were observed between patellar and trochlear grafts on any MRI-based measure. In the cohort assessed at ≥10 years after surgery, 4 patients (2 patella, 2 trochlea) demonstrated graft failure on MRI scans, although a further 3 patients (all trochlea) were omitted from the ≥10-year review for having already progressed to total knee arthroplasty. CONCLUSION: Good clinical scores, high levels of patient satisfaction, and adequate graft survivorship were observed at ≥10 years after MACI on the patella and trochlea.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: To evaluate the rates of inferior vena cava (IVC) filter retrieval and the number of patient's lost to follow-up, before and after the establishment of an IVC filter database and interventional radiology (inserting physician) led follow-up. METHODS: On the 1st of June 2012, an electronic interventional radiology database was established at our Institution. In addition, the interventional radiology team took responsibility for follow-up of IVC filters. Data were prospectively collected from the database for all patients who had an IVC filter inserted between the 1st June 2012 and the 31st May 2014. Data on patients who had an IVC filter inserted between the 1st of June 2009 to the 31st of May 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Patient demographics, insertion indications, filter types, retrieval status, documented retrieval decisions, time in situ, trackable events and complications were obtained in the pre-database (n = 136) and post-database (n = 118) cohorts. RESULTS: Attempted IVC filter retrieval rates were improved from 52.9% to 72.9% (P = 0.001) following the establishment of the database. The number of patients with no documented decision (lost to follow-up) regarding their IVC filter reduced from 31 of 136 (23%) to 0 of 118 patients (P = < 0.001). There was a non-significant reduction in IVC filter dwell time in the post-database group (113 as compared to 137 days, P = 0.129). CONCLUSION: Following the establishment of an IVC filter database and interventional radiology led follow-up, we demonstrate a significant improvement in the attempted retrieval rates of IVC filters and the number of patient's lost to follow-up.
