[PMID: 37568057 PMCID: PMC10635966 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-023-04991-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The component design and fixation method of joint arthroplasty may affect component migration and survival. The aim of this study was to compare fixation of cementless twin-peg (CLTP), cemented twin-peg (CTP) and cemented single-peg (CSP) femoral components of medial unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR). METHODS Eighty patients (mean age = 63 years, 48 males) with medial knee osteoarthritis were randomized in three ways to CLTP (n = 25), CTP (n = 26) or CSP (n = 29) femoral UKR components. The patients were followed 5 years postoperatively with RSA, bone mineral density (BMD), PROMs and radiological evaluation of radiolucent lines (RLL), femoral component flexion angle and complications. RESULTS At the 5-year follow-up, femoral component total translation was comparable between the three groups (p = 0.60). Femoral component internal rotation was 0.50° (95% CI 0.3; 0.69) for the CLTP group, 0.58° (95% CI 0.38; 0.77) for the CTP group and 0.25° (95% CI 0.07; 0.43) for the CSP group (p = 0.01). BMD decreased peri-prosthetically (range - 11.5%; - 14.0%) until 6-month follow-up and increased toward the 5-year follow-up (range - 3.6%; - 5.8%). BMD change did not correlate with component migration. Lower flexion angle was correlated with higher 5-year subsidence, total translation, varus rotation and maximum total point motion (p = 0.01). Two patients (1 CLTP, 1 CTP) had RLL in the posterior zone. There were two revisions. CONCLUSION At 5-year follow-up, fixation of UKA femoral components with twin-peg was not superior to the single-peg design. Cementless and cemented twin-peg femoral components had similar fixation. A lower flexion angle was correlated with higher component migration.

Abstract
There are still some controversies regarding the clinical use of cementless UKAs. The aim of this systematic review was to determine whether cementless medial UKA leads to similar outcomes compared to cemented medial UKA. This search was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews guidelines (PRISMA). The random effects model with 95% confidence interval (CI) was applied to the analysis. The I2 statistic was used to assess study heterogeneity. Six studies were eligible for inclusion (4784 UKAs, 4776 patients): 2947 cemented UKAs (61.6%) and 1837 cementless UKAs (38.4%). The overall mean follow-up was 4.9 years. The all-cause reoperation rate was 11.3% (80 of 706) at mean 5.7-year follow-up for cemented UKA and 6.9% (57 of 824) at mean 4.1-year follow-up for the cementless. The overall revision rate was 10.2% (303 of 2947) for the cemented and 5.8% (108 of 1837) for the cementless. Aseptic loosening was the most frequent reason of revision (2.3% cemented vs 0.5% cementless). The overall rate of radiolucent lines (RLL) was 28.3% (63 of 223) in the cemented cohort and 11.1% in the cementless (26 of 234). All the studies reported improved functional outcomes. Cementless UKA provides at least equivalent if not better results compared to cemented UKA. Despite the use of cemented UKA outnumber cementless fixation, available data shows that cementless UKA had a reduced midterm revision rate, while providing similar functional outcomes.

New instrumentation system for cementless mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty improves surgical performance particularly for trainees. Knee 2021; 31:46-53. [PMID: 34111801 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2021.05.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 05/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mobile-bearing medial-unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (mUKA) has a documented learning curve. New instrumentation has been designed with the aim of reducing the technical challenges of this procedure. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the technical performance of mUKA using new (Microplasty) versus older (Phase III) instrumentation, performed by expert surgeons and trainees. Secondary aims were to evaluate functional outcome and mid-term survivorship. METHODS A time-based comparative cohort study was performed between 2009 and 2015 at a high-volume centre. 273 patients (273 knees, 49.5% female) of mean age 67.8 (standard deviation 10.1) years underwent mUKA. 153 (56.0%) procedures used Microplasty instruments and 120 procedures (44.0%) used Phase III instruments. RESULTS Non-optimal bearing usage was less frequent with Microplasty than Phase III instruments (24 knees [15.7%] versus 33 knees [27.5%], p = 0.024), with differences due to improved trainee performance. Femoral component sagittal alignment outliers were less frequent with Microplasty, but this was not statistically significant (9 knees [5.9%] versus 13 knees [10.8%], p = 0.18). Post-operative Oxford Knee Scores (OKS) were better with Microplasty (median 42 points [interquartile range 38-44]) compared to Phase III (median 39.5 points [IQR 33-44]), which was statistically significant (p = 0.023), but not clinically meaningful. The overall 5-year Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival estimate was 99.3% (95% CI 97.0-99.8%), with no differences between Microplasty and Phase III instrumentation. CONCLUSIONS New instrumentation improved the reliability of the proximal tibial resection in trainees. Further research is warranted to investigate whether Microplasty instrumentation shortens the learning curve for medial UKA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE For the treatment of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty was chosen on the basis of the clinical effects and the rate of prosthesis survival. A retrospective analysis was performed on 500 patients with osteoarthritis of the medial compartment knee treated by unicompartmental knee arthroplasty between April 2007 and April 2017. The cohort was comprised of 176 males and 324 females, aged (61.12 ± 8.0) years old. The clinical treatment was evaluated in terms of the range of movement (ROM), the Knee Society score (KSS), and the Oxford knee score. RESULTS The follow-up lasted 1.59-11.60 years. Grouped in terms of age, 133 cases were in the middle-age, 295 were in the old-age group, and 72 in the advanced-age group. Against the Iwano classification of the patellofemoral joint, 104 cases were graded 0-1; 179 were graded 2; 182 were graded 3 and 35 were graded 4. The KSS score improved from (59 ± 5.6) points before the operation to (93 ± 3.5) points after the operation. The OKS score increased from (24 ± 2.4) points before the operation to (45 ± 3.8) points after the operation. The ROM of knee joint was (111 ± 6.8)° before the operation and was (117 ± 9.7)° after the operation. The 10-year survival rate of the prosthesis was 96%. CONCLUSION UKA is one of the treatments for medial compartmental knee osteoarthritis. The issues, such as age and patellofemoral joint degeneration, can be addressed by careful selection of patients and precise operational manipulation.

Abstract
Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty has been used as a good alternative for medial unicompartmental osteoarthritis due to its association with early rehabilitation and a low rate of intraoperative complications. This case describes a rare complication during the procedure of an intraoperative fracture of the medial condyle that was treated with osteosynthesis with 6.5 mm cannulated screws and a compression technique. The patient followed a non-weight-bearing protocol for 6 weeks and reached full range of motion at 3 months. Complete radiological fusion and good functional outcome were observed. Intraoperative fractures can benefit from stable osteosynthesis that allows free range of motion and does not jeopardise the final surgical result.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxford-III unicompartmental knee replacements (UKRs) are among the most commonly used prostheses to treat isolated medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA). However, the best mode of implant fixation for primary UKRs remains a source of debate. The hypothesis of this study was that the biologically superior fixation of uncemented Oxford-III primary UKRs would translate into a lower revision rate when compared with cemented Oxford-III primary UKRs used to treat isolated medial compartment OA. METHODS Data on all Oxford-III primary UKRs (n = 8,733) completed for isolated medial compartment OA from January 2000 to December 2018 were obtained from the New Zealand Joint Registry (NZJR). Revision rates were documented for each fixation type and analyzed for associations with patient sex and age at surgery. A multivariate Cox proportional-hazards analysis was completed to determine if type of fixation was an independent risk factor for revision of Oxford-III UKRs. RESULTS Statistical analysis revealed a >1.8-fold greater revision risk for cemented Oxford-III UKRs compared with uncemented Oxford-III UKRs (p = 0.001) when considered independently of other risk factors. Furthermore, compared with uncemented fixation, cemented fixation was associated with a 2.9-fold (p < 0.001) increase in revision risk for women <65 years old and a 1.7-fold (p = 0.008) increase in revision risk for men 55 to 74 years old. There was no significant difference in the risk of revision between fixation methods for women ≥65 years old and men ≥75 years old. CONCLUSIONS We found that the type of fixation was an independent risk factor for revision of Oxford-III UKRs used in the treatment of isolated medial compartment OA. Uncemented Oxford-III primary UKRs had superior implant survivorship in women <65 years old and men 55 to 74 years old. Age and sex are important factors to consider when determining the type of fixation for Oxford-III primary UKRs used to treat isolated medial compartment OA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Valgus subsidence (VS) of the tibial component is a rare complication of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), and surgeons might consider revision surgery. The present study aimed to identify the factors related to VS of the tibial component after cementless Oxford mobile-bearing UKA. METHODS The study included 120 patients who underwent Oxford mobile-bearing UKA using a cementless tibial component in our center between September 2015 and September 2016. Six showed VS of >2° after surgery. Patients were stratified into 2 groups according to the occurrence of VS of the tibial component (VS group, n = 6; no-subsidence group, n = 114). Postoperative radiographic evaluations were conducted to assess the varus/valgus alignment, rotation, and mediolateral position of the tibial and femoral components. The Oxford Knee Score (OKS) was assessed at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. Positional parameters and sequential change in OKS were compared between the two groups using unpaired t-test (P < .05, statistically significant). RESULTS At 3 months postoperatively, an average VS of 3.4° in the VS group was observed, with a significant decrease in OKS. VS was associated with a significantly more medial position and external rotation of the tibial component. After 3 months, VS stopped, and the OKS gradually improved without revision surgery. CONCLUSIONS VS might be caused by the malpositioning of the tibial component. VS of the tibial component after UKA appears to stop, with simultaneous pain relief, even without revision after 3 months postoperatively.

A high rate of tibial plateau fractures after early experience with patient-specific instrumentation for unicompartmental knee arthroplasties. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2018; 26:3491-3498.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has been available for a few years. However, limited literature is available on this subject. Hence, the aim of this cohort study is to evaluate the 2 years' results of our first experiences with the use of PSI in UKA. It is hypothesised that there is no advantage in rate of adverse events and in radiological and functional outcomes in comparison to literature on the conventional method. METHODS This cohort included 129 knees of 122 patients, operated by one surgeon. Outcome measures were the rate of adverse events (AEs); implant position as determined on radiographs; the accuracy of the default and approved planning of the implant sizes and the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) preoperatively, and at 3, 12 and 24 months, postoperatively. RESULTS A total of 6 (4.9%) AEs were observed in this study, with 4 (3.3%) tibial fractures being the main complication. The mean postoperative biomechanical axis was 176.4° and in the majority of cases, the radiographic criteria, as determined by the manufacturer, were met. The tibial component showed 20 (16.4%) outliers in the sagittal and 3 (2.5%) outliers in the frontal plane. There were no outliers of the femoral component. For the femoral and tibial components, respectively, in 125 (96.9%) and 79 (61.7%) cases, there was an agreement between approved planning and implanted component size. All PROMs improved significantly after surgery. CONCLUSION Tibial fracture was the most common AE, probably related to the transition from cemented to uncemented UKA. Perioperative modifications to the surgical technique were made in order to prevent this AE. Improvements should be made to the operation technique of the uncemented tibial plateau to obtain an adequate placement and at the same time reduce the risk for tibial fracture. The PSI technique was a reliable tool for the placement of the femoral component. Functional outcome was in line with literature on the conventional method. It is strongly recommended that the surgeon approves every preoperative plan, in order to optimise the accuracy during the PSI surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) has been proposed as a means of improving surgical accuracy and ease of implantation during technically challenging procedures such as unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). The purpose of this prospective randomised controlled trial was to compare the accuracy of implantation and functional outcome of mobile-bearing medial UKAs implanted with and without PSI by experienced UKA surgeons. METHODS Mobile-bearing medial UKAs were implanted in 43 patients using either PSI guides or conventional instrumentation. Intra-operative measurements, meniscal bearing size implanted, and post-operative radiographic analyses were performed to assess component positioning. Functional outcome was determined using the Oxford Knee Score (OKS). RESULTS PSI guides could not be used in three cases due to concerns regarding accuracy and registration onto native anatomy, particularly on the tibial side. In general, similar component alignment and positioning was achieved using the two systems (n.s. for coronal/sagittal alignment and tibial coverage). The PSI group had greater tibial slope (p = 0.029). The control group had a higher number of optimum size meniscal bearing inserted (95 vs 52%; p = 0.001). There were no differences in OKS improvements (n.s). CONCLUSION Component positioning for the two groups was similar for the femur but less accurate on the tibial side using PSI, often with some unnecessarily deep resections of the tibial plateau. Although PSI was comparable to conventional instrumentation based on OKS improvements at 12 months, we continue to use conventional instrumentation for UKA at our institution until further improvements to the PSI guides can be demonstrated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) are variable and influenced by caseload (UKA/y) and usage (percentage of knee arthroplasty that are UKA), which relates to indications. This meta-analysis assesses the relative importance of these factors. METHODS MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase (Ovid), and Web of Science (ISI) were searched for consecutive series of cemented Phase 3 Oxford medial UKA. The primary outcome was revision rate/100 observed component years (% pa) with subgroup analysis based on caseload and usage. RESULTS Forty-six studies (12,520 knees) with an annual revision-rate ranging from 0% to 4.35% pa, mean 1.21% pa (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.97-1.47), were identified. In series with mean follow-up of 10-years, the revision-rate was 0.63% pa (95% CI, 0.46-0.83), equating to a 94% (95% CI, 92%-95%) 10-year survival. Aseptic loosening, lateral arthritis, bearing dislocation, and unexplained pain were the predominant failure mechanisms with revision for patellofemoral problems and polyethylene wear exceedingly rare. The lowest revision-rates were achieved with caseload >24 UKA/y (0.88% pa; 95% CI, 0.63-1.61) and usage >30% (0.69% pa; 95% CI, 0.50-0.90). Usage was more important than caseload; with high usage (≥20%), the revision-rate was low, whether the caseload was high (>12 UKA/y) or low (≤12 UKA/y; (0.94% pa; 95% CI, 0.69-1.23 and 0.85% pa; 95% CI, 0.65-1.08), respectively); with low usage (<20%), the revision-rate was high, whether the caseload was high or low (1.58% pa; 95% CI, 0.57-3.05 and 1.76% pa; 95% CI, 1.21-2.41, respectively). CONCLUSION To achieve optimum results, surgeons, whether high or low caseload, should adhere to the recommended indications such that ≥20%, or ideally >30% of their knee arthroplasties are UKA. If they do this, then they can expect to achieve results similar to those of the long-term series, which all had high usage (>20%) and an average 10-year survival of 94%.

Mobile bearing medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in patients whose lifestyles involve high degrees of knee flexion: A 10-14year follow-up study. Knee 2017; 24:829-836. [PMID: 28571920 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2017.05.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2017] [Revised: 03/02/2017] [Accepted: 05/04/2017] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Because Asian populations have different lifestyles, such as squatting and sitting on the floor, from those of Western populations, it is possible that the clinical results and survival rate of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) for Asian patients may be different. This study described outcomes of mobile bearing medial UKA for Korean patients. METHODS A total of the 164 knees treated with mobile bearing UKAs in 147 patients (14 males and 133 females) were reviewed. The mean follow-up period was 12.1years (range 10.1-14). RESULTS The clinical outcomes, such as the Hospital for Special Surgery Knee score, the Oxford Knee Score and the Knee Society rating system, showed statistically significant improvement from pre-operative to final follow-up (P<0.05). A total of 26 UKAs (15.8%) required revision; the most common reason was bearing dislocation. The 95% confidence interval of survival rate at 12years was 84.1%, with revision for any reason as the end point. CONCLUSIONS Minimally invasive mobile bearing UKA in Asian patients who required high degrees of knee flexion showed rapid recovery and good clinical outcome. However, they also showed relatively high rates of bearing dislocation and aseptic loosening. Therefore, mobile bearing UKA should only be performed in patients whose lifestyle involves high flexions after carefully considering these risks and benefits.

Abstract
PURPOSE There have been few large sample studies reporting the midterm outcome of Oxford phase 3 unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in Asian patients. METHODS The study included 708 consecutive medial Oxford UKAs between February 2005 and May 2014 in Chinese patients. All cases were performed for the recommended indications with a minimally-invasive surgical technique. The functional and radiological outcomes were subsequently examined. In particular, we divided patients into the spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee (SONK) group and the osteoarthritis (OA) group. RESULTS All patients were reviewed with a mean follow-up of 6.2 years (range 2.7-12 years). At the latest follow up, the mean Oxford knee score (OKS) increased from 22.5 to 38.5 points, while the mean knee society score (KSS) increased from 43.6 to 86.1 points. The mean visual analogue scale pain score decreased from 7.9 to 1.5 points and the mean range of motion (ROM) increased from 112.5° to 125.2°. A total of 13 UKAs (1.88%) required revisions. The most common reason was bearing dislocation and osteoarthritis of the lateral compartment. Using revision for any cause as an endpoint, the five-year cumulative survival rate was 98.8% and the ten-year survival rate was 94.3%. There was no statistically significant difference between the SONK group and the OA group for the five-year cumulative survival rate (98.7% vs. 98.8%, P > 0.05). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that Oxford UKA is a good option for the treatment of anteromedial OA and SONK of the knee in Asian patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although fewer tibial radiolucent lines are observed in cementless Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) compared with cemented Oxford UKA, an independent comparative study on this topic is lacking. METHODS In this multicentre retrospective study, a cohort of 60 consecutive cases of cementless Oxford UKA is compared with a cohort of 60 consecutive cases of cemented Oxford UKA. Radiolucent lines, survival, perioperative data and clinical results were compared. RESULTS No complete tibial radiolucent lines were observed in either group. Seventeen per cent of partial tibial radiolucent lines were observed in the cementless group versus 21 % in the cemented group (n.s.). The percentage of tibial radiolucent zones was 4 versus 9 %, respectively (p = 0.036). Survival rates were 90 % at 34 months for the cementless group and 84 % at 54 months for the cemented group (n.s.). Mean operation time was 10 min shorter in the cementless group (p < 0.001), and clinical results were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS Although no significant differences in radiolucent lines were found between both groups, they appear to be more common in the cemented group. This confirms previous results from reports by prosthesis designers. The presence of radiolucent lines after cemented Oxford UKA does not correlate with clinical outcome or survival.

Annual revision rates of partial versus total knee arthroplasty: A comparative meta-analysis. Knee 2017; 24:179-190. [PMID: 27916580 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2016.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 75] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2016] [Revised: 10/29/2016] [Accepted: 11/07/2016] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Utilization of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA) as alternatives to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (OA) has increased. However, no single resource consolidates survivorship data between TKA and partial resurfacing options for each variant of unicompartmental OA. This meta-analysis compared survivorship between TKA and medial UKA (MUKA), lateral UKA (LUKA) and PFA using annual revision rate as a standardized metric. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed for studies quantifying TKA, MUKA, LUKA and/or PFA implant survivorship. Studies were classified by evidence level and assessed for bias using the MINORS and PEDro instruments. Annual revision rates were calculated for each arthroplasty procedure as percentages/observed component-year, based on a Poisson-normal model with random effects using the R-statistical software package. RESULTS One hundred and twenty-four studies (113 cohort and 11 registry-based studies) met inclusion/exclusion criteria, providing data for 374,934 arthroplasties and 14,991 revisions. The overall evidence level was low, with 96.7% of studies classified as level III-IV. Annual revision rates were lowest for TKA (0.49%, CI 0.41 to 0.58), followed by MUKA (1.07%, CI 0.87 to 1.31), LUKA (1.13%, CI 0.69 to 1.83) and PFA (1.75%, CI 1.19 to 2.57). No difference was detected between revision rates for MUKA and LUKA (p=0.222). CONCLUSIONS Revisions of MUKA, LUKA and PFA occur at an annual rate of 2.18, 2.31 and 3.57-fold that of TKA, respectively. These estimates may be used to inform clinical decision-making, guide patient expectations and evaluate the cost-effectiveness of total versus partial knee replacement in the setting of unicompartmental OA.

Abstract
Aims Approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2004, the Phase
III Oxford Medial Partial Knee is used to treat anteromedial osteoarthritis
(AMOA) in patients with an intact anterior cruciate ligament. This
unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is relatively new in the
United States, and therefore long-term American results are lacking. Patients and Methods This is a single surgeon, retrospective study based on prospectively
collected data, analysing a consecutive series of primary UKAs using
the Phase III mobile-bearing Oxford Knee and Phase III instrumentation. Between July 2004 and December 2006, the senior author (RHE)
carried out a medial UKA in 173 patients (213 knees) for anteromedial
osteoarthritis or avascular necrosis (AVN). A total of 95 patients were men and 78 were women. Their mean
age at surgery was 67 years (38 to 89) and mean body mass index
29.87 kg/m2 (17 to 62). The mean follow-up was ten years (4 to 11). Results Survivorship of the Oxford UKA at ten years was 88%, using life
table analysis. Implant survivorship at ten years was 95%. The most
common cause for revision was the progression of osteoarthritis
in the lateral compartment. The mean knee score element of the American
Knee Society Score (AKSS) was 50 pre-operatively and increased to 93
post-operatively. The mean AKSS function score was 56 pre-operatively
rising to 78 post-operatively Conclusion This ten-year follow-up study of the Oxford UKA undertaken in
the United States shows good survivorship and excellent function
in a wide selection of patients with AMOA and AVN. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2016;98-B(10

J Arthroplasty 2016; 31:2617-2627. [PMID: 27172863 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2016.04.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2016] [Revised: 04/01/2016] [Accepted: 04/05/2016] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In 1989, Kozinn and Scott introduced strict exclusion criteria for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). Because outcomes have improved with modern techniques and implants, these criteria have now been challenged. Therefore, the goal was to assess the role of these criteria on (1) functional outcomes and (2) revision rates of medial UKA. The hypothesis was that, with modern surgical techniques and implants, these traditional exclusion criteria are no longer strict contraindications for UKA. METHODS Databases of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane and annual registries were searched for studies comparing UKA results in subgroups: age (young vs old), gender (male vs female), body mass index (obese vs nonobese), present vs absent patellofemoral osteoarthritis, and intact vs deficient anterior cruciate ligament. RESULTS Thirty-one comparative cohort studies (7 level II and 24 level III/IV studies) and 6 registries reported outcomes in 17,147 patients and revision rates in 285,472 patients. Females had inferior functional outcomes compared to males (odds ratio [OR], 4.03; 95% CI, 1.77-6.30). Furthermore, younger patients (in studies: OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.06-2.19; in registries: OR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.70-2.57) and females (OR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.06-1.21) had increased likelihood for revision. No increased likelihood for inferior outcomes or revisions was detected in patients with obesity, preoperative patellofemoral osteoarthritis, or anterior cruciate ligament deficiency. CONCLUSION Findings of increased revision risk in younger patients and increased revision risk with inferior outcomes in females give a more nuanced perspective on historical criteria, such that surgical decision-making may be based on UKA outcome data for subgroups rather than strict exclusion criteria.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Oxford unicompartmental knee replacement (OUKR) is associated with a low perioperative complication rate. This case report describes a periprosthetic fracture of the medial femoral condyle that occurred during an OUKR. The patient was treated with a non-weight-bearing long leg cast for 6 weeks. Afterwards, the fracture had healed, and 3 months postoperatively, there was a full range of motion. Factors leading to this complication could be the impaction force or direction, or a diminished load resistance of the distal femur. Minimally displaced coronal periprosthetic fractures after OUKR can be managed conservatively without residual functional impairment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Case report, Level IV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Failure rates are higher in medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) than total knee arthroplasty. To improve these failure rates, it is important to understand why medial UKA fail. Because individual studies lack power to show failure modes, a systematic review was performed to assess medial UKA failure modes. Furthermore, we compared cohort studies with registry-based studies, early with midterm and late failures and fixed-bearing with mobile-bearing implants. METHODS Databases of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane and annual registries were searched for medial UKA failures. Studies were included when they reported >25 failures or when they reported early (<5 years), midterm (5-10 years), or late failures (>10 years). RESULTS Thirty-seven cohort studies (4 level II studies and 33 level III studies) and 2 registry-based studies were included. A total of 3967 overall failures, 388 time-dependent failures, and 1305 implant design failures were identified. Aseptic loosening (36%) and osteoarthritis (OA) progression (20%) were the most common failure modes. Aseptic loosening (26%) was most common early failure mode, whereas OA progression was more commonly seen in midterm and late failures (38% and 40%, respectively). Polyethylene wear (12%) and instability (12%) were more common in fixed-bearing implants, whereas pain (14%) and bearing dislocation (11%) were more common in mobile-bearing implants. CONCLUSION This level III systematic review identified aseptic loosening and OA progression as the major failure modes. Aseptic loosening was the main failure mode in early years and mobile-bearing implants, whereas OA progression caused most failures in late years and fixed-bearing implants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unicondylar knee replacement (UKA) is a viable alternative to high tibial osteotomy (HTO) and total knee replacement in the treatment of medial osteoarthritis of the knee. With the correct indication, the results of UKA and HTO are comparable. RESULTS In comparison with the results of total knee replacements, UKA leads to faster rehabilitation, superior postoperative range of motion, and higher postoperative activity levels. Despite the excellent long-term results, the survival rate is inferior to the results of total knee replacement. The major causes for failure are progression of osteoarthritis in the lateral and patellofemoral joint as well as the loosening of the tibial component. CONCLUSION The conversion to total knee replacement can mostly be performed without problems. However, the expected results are inferior to primary total knee replacement and the reported revision rates are higher.

Abstract
A retrospective review of 467 Oxford UKAs was performed in 387 patients. Thirty-eight knees (8.1%) were revised to TKA at a mean of 49 months, most commonly for lateral compartment OA (47%). The 5-year cumulative survival using revision to TKA was 98.5%. Revisions required short stems in 26% and augments in 21% of cases. The mobile bearing dislocation rate was 0.64%. Correction of ≥3-5° from the preoperative alignment in a valgus direction was predictive of revision to TKA (P<.0001). Multivariate analysis revealed female gender (P=.002) also was associated with an increased risk of revision. Careful attention to the degree of mechanical axis correction with an overall maintained varus alignment may reduce revision rates for mobile bearing UKA.

Abstract
The cementless Oxford unicompartmental knee replacement
has been demonstrated to have superior fixation on radiographs and
a similar early complication rate compared with the cemented version.
However, a small number of cases have come to our attention where,
after an apparently successful procedure, the tibial component subsides into
a valgus position with an increased posterior slope, before becoming
well-fixed. We present the clinical and radiological findings of
these six patients and describe their natural history and the likely
causes. Two underwent revision in the early post-operative period,
and in four the implant stabilised and became well-fixed radiologically with
a good functional outcome. This situation appears to be avoidable by minor modifications
to the operative technique, and it appears that it can be treated
conservatively in most patients. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2014;96-B:345–9.

Abstract
PURPOSE An ongoing controversy exists on whether mobile-bearing design is superior over fixed-bearing design in unicondylar knee arthroplasties (UKAs). The present study conducted a systematic review to ascertain differences in performance between fixed- and mobile-bearing designs in UKAs. METHODS A literature search was performed in PubMed, Embase, Scopus and the Cochrane Library. A total of 9 comparative studies involving 915 knees comparing outcomes of mobile-bearing UKAs with fixed-bearing UKAs were included in the current analysis. Outcomes of interest included knee function, quality of life, radiographic outcomes, reasons and incidence of reoperation, timing of failures, and survivorship. RESULTS The results presented no significant differences between the two designs in terms of knee scores, range of motion, limb alignment, implant positioning, incidence of radiolucent lines and overall reoperation rates. However, their differences have been noted in their modes and timing of failures. Early failures are related to the risk of bearing dislocation in the mobile-bearing design. In contrast, later failures are related to the risk of polyethylene wear in the fixed-bearing design. CONCLUSIONS The available evidence has not confirmed the advantage of mobile-bearing UKAs over fixed-bearing UKAs but pointed out specific modes of failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Oxford knee is a unicompartmental implant featuring a mobile-bearing polyethylene component with excellent long-term survivorship results reported by the implant developers and early adopters. By contrast, other studies have reported higher revision rates in large academic practices and in national registries. Registry data have shown increased failure with this implant especially by lower-volume surgeons and institutions. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES In the setting of a high-volume knee arthroplasty practice, we sought to determine (1) the failure rate of the Oxford unicompartmental knee implant using a failure definition for aseptic loosening that combined clinical features, plain radiographs, and scintigraphy, and (2) whether increased experience with this implant would decrease failure rate, if there is a learning curve effect. METHODS Eighty-three Oxford knee prostheses were implanted between September 2005 and July 2008 by the principal investigator. Radiographic and clinical data were available for review for all cases. A failed knee was defined as having recurrent pain after an earlier period of recovery from surgery, progressive radiolucent lines compared with initial postoperative radiographs, and a bone scan showing an isolated area of uptake limited to the area of the replaced compartment. RESULTS Eleven knees in this series failed (13%); Kaplan-Meier survivorship was 86.5% (95% CI, 78.0%-95.0%) at 5 years. Failure occurrences were distributed evenly over the course of the study period. No learning curve effect was identified. CONCLUSIONS Based on these findings, including a high failure rate of the Oxford knee implant and the absence of any discernible learning curve effect, the principal investigator no longer uses this implant.

Abstract
Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a less invasive treatment for medial gonarthrosis. However, registry data have demonstrated higher revision and early failure rates. The purpose of this study is to report the early survivorship and failure modes in a series of 1000 consecutive medial mobile bearing UKA. UKA patients with a minimum of 2 year follow-up or those meeting the study endpoint (UKA failure or death) were included. Demographic variables, pre and post-operative clinical variables, and mode of failure were analyzed. Eight hundred and thirty-nine knees were included in the analysis. Forty revisions were performed at an average of 23.1 months (range, 2.3-74.2) following UKA for a survivorship of 95.2%. Indications for revision were aseptic loosening (15), tibial collapse (7), mobile bearing dislocation (2), persistent pain (12), progression of disease (2), infection (1), and tibiofemoral instability (1). These results are from a single center and may not be comparable to those of larger reports such as national registries.

Abstract
Partial knee arthroplasty (PKA) has shown obvious advantages compared to total knee arthroplasty, but survival of PKA from different institutions and registries has differed. In our institution, 695 consecutive Oxford medial PKAs were performed from 2002 to 2011 with mean follow-up of 4.6 years. The overall 10.7-year survival rate was 85.3% (95% CI: 78.7%-90.0%), and no difference in survival for gender and age younger or older than 60 years was found. One year after PKA, 94.3% were very satisfied or satisfied, as were 93.6% six years postoperatively. The revision rate was 7.3% (n=51), and the most common causes for revision were progression of osteoarthritis (n=16), aseptic loosening (n=11), and pain without loosening (n=10). Only 50% of patients revised for pain without loosening had a satisfactory outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) needs careful balancing of flexion/extension (F/E) gaps to prevent dislocation of the mobile meniscal bearing. Assessment of gaps is based on the surgeon's subjective insertion force of a feeler gauge with different thicknesses and/or the lift-off of a trial meniscal bearing. However, the accuracy of this method remains unclear. We assessed the accuracy of the technique. PATIENTS AND METHODS A consecutive series of 33 UKAs in 32 patients (mean age 64 years, 24 women) were balanced using the Oxford Phase III (OP III) Instrumentation. The recommended technique for F/E gap assessment was performed using different feeler gauges with 1-mm increments and the meniscal bearing lift-off tests according to surgical technique. A tensiometer was inserted and both gaps were maximally distracted by hand. Measurements in mm were recorded and analyzed with a reading of 90 N for both gaps in 20 and 90 degrees of flexion. RESULTS The gaps measured were 12 (11-18) mm in extension and 13 (11-18) mm in 90 degrees of flexion. The difference between the gaps was 0.4 (-0.5 to 1.0) mm (p < 0.001). There were no statistically significant gender differences regarding composite implant thickness, laxity, flexion gap, extension gap, or gap difference. INTERPRETATION OP III instrumentation using feeler gauges and the lift-off test provides accurate balancing of F/E gaps with an accuracy of less than 1 mm.

Abstract
Cementless fixation is an increasingly popular option in unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA). Early cementless UKAs suffered from unreliable fixation and uptake of cementless UKA was limited. However, modern designs of cementless UKA have demonstrated excellent results with improved radiographic appearances when compared with cemented implants. This is supported by early joint registry data, which demonstrate a survival advantage with cementless fixation in one design of UKA. This review explains the rationale for cementless UKA, summarizes the results from published trials, and highlights technical aspects points to be aware of when implanting cementless UKA.

Abstract
The Cementless Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Replacement (OUKR) was developed to address problems related to cementation, and has been demonstrated in a randomised study to have similar clinical outcomes with fewer radiolucencies than observed with the cemented device. However, before its widespread use it is necessary to clarify contraindications and assess the complications. This requires a larger study than any previously published. We present a prospective multicentre series of 1000 cementless OUKRs in 881 patients at a minimum follow-up of one year. All patients had radiological assessment aligned to the bone-implant interfaces and clinical scores. Analysis was performed at a mean of 38.2 months (19 to 88) following surgery. A total of 17 patients died (comprising 19 knees (1.9%)), none as a result of surgery; there were no tibial or femoral loosenings. A total of 19 knees (1.9%) had significant implant-related complications or required revision. Implant survival at six years was 97.2%, and there was a partial radiolucency at the bone-implant interface in 72 knees (8.9%), with no complete radiolucencies. There was no significant increase in complication rate compared with cemented fixation (p = 0.87), and no specific contraindications to cementless fixation were identified. Cementless OUKR appears to be safe and reproducible in patients with end-stage anteromedial osteoarthritis of the knee, with radiological evidence of improved fixation compared with previous reports using cemented fixation.

Abstract
STUDY AIMS To determine the survival and functional outcome for the phase 3 Oxford unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) performed at a single independent centre and to assess whether age and gender affect survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2000 and 2008, 459 consecutive Oxford UKRs were implanted in 392 patients using a minimally invasive technique. RESULTS Mean age of patients was 63.0 years and 53% were female. Mean follow-up was 4.4 years (range 0.5-11.2 years). No patient was lost to follow-up and 411 (90%) knees had a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Twenty knees (4.4%) have undergone revision to total knee replacement at a mean time of 3.2 years. Aseptic component loosening (n=11) accounted for most failures. Cumulative survival was 94.4% at 5 years (95% confidence interval 90.9-97.0) and 93.0% at 8 years (95% confidence interval 84.8-96.2). The median postoperative Oxford knee score was 31.2% (interquartile range 12.2%-52.1%) at latest follow-up. Age and gender had no statistically significant affect on UKR survival. CONCLUSIONS This large independent series demonstrates good medium-term survival and functional outcome can be achieved with the phase 3 Oxford UKR in appropriately selected patients. Age and gender should not be considered contraindications for performing Oxford UKR.

Abstract
Following arthroplasty of the knee, the patient's perception of improvement in symptoms is fundamental to the assessment of outcome. Better clinical outcome may offset the inferior survival observed for some types of implant. By examining linked National Joint Registry (NJR) and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) data, we aimed to compare PROMs collected at a minimum of six months post-operatively for total (TKR: n = 23,393) and unicondylar knee replacements (UKR: n = 505). Improvements in knee-specific (Oxford knee score, OKS) and generic (EuroQol, EQ-5D) scores were compared and adjusted for case-mix differences using multiple regression. Whereas the improvements in the OKS and EQ-5D were significantly greater for TKR than for UKR, once adjustments were made for case-mix differences and pre-operative score, the improvements in the two scores were not significantly different. The adjusted mean differences in the improvement of OKS and EQ-5D were 0.0 (95% confidence interval (CI) -0.9 to 0.9; p = 0.96) and 0.009 (95% CI -0.034 to 0.015; p = 0.37), respectively. We found no difference in the improvement of either knee-specific or general health outcomes between TKR and UKR in a large cohort of registry patients. With concerns about significantly higher revision rates for UKR observed in worldwide registries, we question the widespread use of an arthroplasty that does not confer a significant benefit in clinical outcome.

Abstract
We studied the technical operative features and the subjective outcomes of 63 patients requiring a revision to a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for failed Oxford medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. We compared this revision study group to a contemporary control cohort of 126 patients who underwent primary TKAs. The 2 groups from the same institution had a minimum follow-up of 2 years and were retrospectively matched 1:2 for age, sex, body mass index, and follow-up time. Length of stay and hemoglobin level drop were similar. Technically, the revision group required larger polyethylene inserts (P < .001) and longer tourniquet times (P < .001) with 15 of these patients needing augments, grafts, and/or stems. Subjectively, the revision group's mean total Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index score was 25.8 ± 20.2, thus less satisfactory compared with the control group (19.8 ± 15.3) at a mean follow-up of 3.1 years (P = .03). A revision unicompartmental knee arthroplasty to TKA is technically more difficult and functionally less satisfactory at last follow-up when compared with a primary TKA.
