Beckers G, Massé V, Barry J, St-Louis J, Isler M, Vendittoli PA, Morcos MW. Clinical Outcomes of Total Knee Arthroplasty in Patients Who Have Hemophilic Arthropathy: A Prospective Study. J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00722-8. [PMID: 39025278 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.07.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered the gold standard treatment for patients who have advanced hemophilic knee arthropathy (HA). However, special considerations are required for these patients. This prospective study reports on the need for soft-tissue procedures, implant types, complication rates, mean 53.3 months implant survivorship, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of TKA in hemophilic patients. METHODS There were twenty primary TKAs that were performed on 15 hemophilic patients from 2012 to 2023. The mean follow-up was 53.3 months (range, 6 to 128; 33.5). The necessity for additional soft tissue procedures, implant type, complications, and revision rates were recorded. Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Knee Society Score, Hemophilia-specific Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults, Haemophilia Activities List, and range of motion, were compared preoperatively and at the last follow-up. RESULTS At the last follow-up, implant survivorship was 90%. There were two revisions: one for aseptic loosening and one for periprosthetic joint infection. Additional soft tissue procedures included two quadriceps snips (10%). Tibial augments, tibial stubby stems, and both tibial and femoral traditional stems were used in one (5%), four (20%), and one (5%) TKAs, respectively. A constrained posterior-stabilized bearing was necessary in one case. Clinically and statistically significant improvements were found between the preoperative and final follow-up values of all PROMS, knee flexion (73 versus 108°, P < 0.001), and flexion contracture (11 versus 4°, P = 0.002). CONCLUSION This study showed that TKA, in patients who have HA, is a reliable treatment option that improves knee function and patients' QoL with acceptable implant survival rates at mid-term follow-up (mean 53.3 months). Standard implants and approaches can be used in most cases. Despite good outcomes, hemophilic patients carry additional risks for complications that require specific considerations. It is paramount for these patients to be treated in specialized centers by experienced surgeons to achieve good results.

Outcome measures analysis following total knee arthroplasty in patients with severe haemophilic arthropathy of the knee. Biomed Rep 2024; 20:98. [PMID: 38765856 PMCID: PMC11099587 DOI: 10.3892/br.2024.1786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been the gold standard for treating severe haemophilic arthropathy of the knee when all conservative measures fail. However, performing a TKA in patients with haemophilic arthropathy is difficult due to severe joint deformity and destruction, and poor bone quality. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the short-term results of TKA in the treatment of knee haemophilic arthropathy in a tertiary referral centre, with an emphasis on health-related quality of life and knee function. A prospective study was conducted that included 19 male patients with end-stage haemophilic knee arthropathy who underwent TKA in a tertiary referral centre. Clinical outcome and health-related quality of life were assessed by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) index and the Short Form-36 (SF-36) both pre-operatively and at 1-year post-operatively. The mean age of the patients was 50.37±7.63 years (range, 40-65 years). Pre-operative health-related quality of life was impaired in all patients in all SF-36 domains but was markedly improved after TKA. Knee function in all dimensions (pain, stiffness and physical function), as measured by the WOMAC questionnaire, significantly improved after TKA. Pre-operative pain, stiffness and function, along with total WOMAC score, were strongly and negatively correlated with pre-operative SF-36. Overall, the present study indicated a significant improvement in quality of life and clinical outcome after TKA in patients with advanced haemophilic arthropathy. More studies with longer follow-up periods in a larger population are needed to fully elucidate the mid- and long-term values of TKA in haemophilic patients.

Non-surgical correction of knee flexion deformity in persons with haemophilia: A staged multidisciplinary approach. Haemophilia 2024; 30:523-530. [PMID: 38247204 DOI: 10.1111/hae.14940] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Flexion deformity of the knee is a common complication following recurrent haemarthrosis in persons with haemophilia (PWH) on episodic factor replacement therapy, restricting independent mobility. There is limited literature on the comprehensive management of this condition. This report provides the outcome of a staged multidisciplinary approach for the correction of knee flexion deformity (KFD) even in limited resource settings. PATIENTS AND METHODS The data of 49 consecutive PWH who were treated for KFD were analysed. The approach included graded physical therapy (PT), followed by serial casting and/or mobilisation under anaesthesia (MUA). MUA was done in carefully selected knees. Surgical correction was opted when non-surgical methods failed. RESULTS Of the 49 patients (55 knees), with a median KFD of 40 degrees (range: 10-90), 26/55 (47%) were corrected by graded PT. With serial casting, 9/19 (47%) knees had their KFD corrected. MUA was done for 11 knees of which five achieved correction (45%). Surgical correction was required for only seven knees (12.7%). Following this approach, KFD improved from 40 degrees (range: 10-90) to 15 degrees (range: 0-40), with only minor loss of flexion from 105 (range: 60-155) to 90 degrees (range: 30-150). Out of 55 KFD, 46 (83.6%) KFD were corrected; non-surgical, 39 (70.9%) and surgery, seven (12.7%). The remaining patients (nine KFD; 16.4%) were able to achieve their functional goal despite not meeting the correction criteria. CONCLUSION This study shows that in PWH, functionally significant KFD correction can be achieved in about 71%, through non-surgical methods, even without prophylactic factor replacement.

The effect of HIV prevalence, CD4 counts and disease severity on the outcome of total knee arthroplasty for haemophilic arthropathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2023; 33:3235-3254. [PMID: 37212914 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-023-03586-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE End-stage knee arthropathy is a recognised complication of haemophilia. It is often treated by total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which is more technically challenging in patients with haemophilia (PwH). It remains unclear what factors may predict implant survivorship and deep infection rate. Therefore, we systematically review the evidence regarding TKA survivorship and infection in PwH, compared to the general population, and determine the important factors influencing survivorship, particularly HIV and CD4 + count. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed for studies reporting Kaplan-Meier survivorship for TKA in PwH (PROSPERO CRD42021284644). Meta-analysis was performed for survivorship, and the results compared to < 55-year-olds from the National Joint Registry (NJR). Meta-regression was performed to determine the impact of relevant variables on 10-year survivorship, with a sub-analysis focusing on HIV. RESULTS Twenty-one studies were reviewed, totalling 1338 TKAs (average age 39 years). Implant survivorship for PwH at 5, 10, and 15 years was 94%, 86%, and 76% respectively. NJR-reported survivorship for males < 55 years was 94%, 90%, and 86%. Survivorship improved over time (1973-2018), and correlated inversely with HIV prevalence. Infection rate was 5%, compared to 0.5-1% in the NJR. Infection was not significantly increased with higher HIV prevalence, and CD4 + count had no effect. Complications were inconsistently reported. CONCLUSION Survivorship was similar at 5 years but declined thereafter, and infection rate was six-fold higher. HIV was related to worse survivorship, but not increased infection. Meta-analysis was limited by inconsistent reporting, and standardised reporting is required in future studies.

Knee 2023; 40:90-96.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemophilic arthropathy is a cause of severe knee deformity, because chronic synovitis due to repeated hemarthrosis affects the area of the epiphyseal plates in juvenile cases. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the standard treatment for end-stage knee arthropathy. However, it is difficult to perform one-stage TKA in patients with severe intra- and extra-articular deformities. CASE PRESENTATION We reported a case of hemophilic arthropathy in a 55-year-old male with leg length discrepancy of 4 cm, limited range of knee motion (-40° extension and 85° flexion), intra-articular deformity (medial proximal tibial angle: 69°; mechanical lateral distal femoral angle: 79°), extra-articular deformity at the distal femoral metaphyseal (30° valgus and 45° flexion deformity), and varus malalignment (% mechanical axis: 33%). We planned a three-stage TKA. Firstly, we performed gradual correction and lengthening of the distal femur using Taylor spatial flame. Six months after surgery, we performed conversion surgery from external fixation to internal fixation. Finally, we performed TKA with rotating hinged type implant. Two years after surgery, physical examination showed a normal gait, leg length discrepancy of 2 cm (the right leg was shorter), improvement in the range of knee motion (0° extension and 100° flexion). CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this presents the first combination of three-stage TKA with correction of femoral deformity and leg lengthening using a Taylor spatial frame and conversion to internal fixation in a patient with hemophilic knee arthropathy and severe intra- and extra-articular deformities.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a commonly used option in advanced stages of knee arthropathy in people with hemophilia (PWH). The objective of this article is to determine what the complication rates and implant survival rates in PWH are in the literature. A literature search was carried out in PubMed (MEDLINE), Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase and Google Scholar utilizing the keywords "hemophilia TKA complications" on 20 October 2022. It was found that the rate of complications after TKA in PWH is high (range 7% to 30%), although it has improved during the last two decades, possibly due to better perioperative hematologic treatment. However, prosthetic survival at 10 years has not changed substantially, being in the last 30 years approximately 80% to 90% taking as endpoint the revision for any reason. Survival at 20 years taking as endpoint the revision for any reason is 60%. It is possible that with a precise perioperative control of hemostasis in PWH, the percentage of complications after TKA can be diminished.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Haemophilic arthropathy (HA), a common complication of haemophilia, is secondary to recurrent joint bleeding and increases the prevalence of end-stage osteoarthritis (OA). Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a reliable treatment for haemophilia patients. This study was performed to evaluate the mid-term outcomes of TKA for end-stage HA. We hypothesized that the rate of complications of TKA is higher for patients with haemophilia than for patients without haemophilia. METHODS Patients with HA undergoing TKA from January 2015 to December 2016 in our centre were retrospectively reviewed. All patients were managed by a multidisciplinary team. The improvements in flexion contracture, range of motion (ROM), Knee Society Score (KSS; clinical and functional), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, and satisfaction at final follow-up were analysed to evaluate the effectiveness of TKA in HA. The complications were analysed to evaluate the safety of TKA in HA. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients (32 knees) were included in the study. The follow-up was 69.1 ± 5.1 months. Significant differences between the preoperative and final follow-up values of flexion contracture (which changed from 21.1 ± 6.5° to 14.3 ± 4.1°, P < 0.001), ROM (from 53.9 ± 15.0° to 70.3 ± 16.3°, P < 0.001), clinical KSS (from 33.5 ± 14.4° to 62.7 ± 9.5°, P < 0.001), functional KSS (from 46.1 ± 15.5° to 62.9 ± 9.7°, P < 0.001), and VAS score (from 6.8 ± 1.4 to 4.9 ± 1.3, P < 0.01) were observed. Importantly, the incidence of complications was 15.6% and the satisfaction was 100% in our mid-term study. CONCLUSION Under elaborative and comprehensive management, TKA is effective and safe in patients with advanced HA on the basis of mid-term follow-up outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Currently, there is a paucity of literature describing the risk factors for increased perioperative blood loss (PBL) during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in haemophilia. Furthermore, no studies have analysed coagulation factor levels that affect PBL. AIM To identify the risk factors for increased PBL by incorporating coagulation factor levels following TKA in patients with haemophilic arthropathy. METHODS A total of 92 TKA (78 haemophilia A and 14 haemophilia B) were performed for haemophilic arthropathy. PBL was calculated using the haemoglobin (Hb) balance method, and patients were categorised into two groups: group H (higher blood loss than the mean PBL, n = 36) and group L (lower blood loss than the mean PBL, n = 56). Body mass index (BMI), operation day Hb, haematocrit and coagulation factor level (VIII or IX) were analysed, including demographic and laboratory data. RESULTS The mean PBL volume during TKA for haemophilic arthropathy of the knee was 542.3 ± 361.7 mL. Multivariate analysis revealed that lower haematocrit on the operation day (odds ratio [OR], .633; 95% confidence interval [CI], .511-.786; p < .001) and coagulation factor level (OR .970, CI .941-.999; p = .046) were independent risk factors for increased PBL. Receiver-operating characteristic analysis identified these cutoff values for predicting increased PBL: operation day coagulation factor level 93.5% (sensitivity, 70.4%; specificity, 67.6%) and haematocrit level of 38.2% (sensitivity, 85.7%; specificity, 80.6%). CONCLUSIONS The PBL increased as haematocrit and coagulation factor levels decreased on the operation day. A coagulation factor level <93.5% or haematocrit level of <38.2% may be a significant risk factor for increasing PBL. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, Case Series, Treatment Study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee replacement (TKR) surgery is a treatment option for advanced hemophilic arthropathy. Due to its rarity and complexity, previous reports could only demonstrate the results of single-site studies including few cases. This population-based study aimed to investigate the major epidemiological characteristics, mean consumption of coagulation factors, length of hospital stays, complications, and failure rate of primary TKR for severe hemophilia patients in Taiwan. METHODS A cohort of 996 hemophilia patients registered between 1995 and 2011 was included, and 103 primary TKRs were performed on 75 patients. Unilateral TKR was performed on 47 patients and bilateral TKRs on the remaining 28 patients, including 12 simultaneous and 16 staged surgeries. The mean age at surgery was 32.3 years (range, 17.3-55.7), and the mean follow-up duration was 77.9 months (range, 2.3-176.8). RESULTS Failure was noted in 8 patients (8.5%) at mean 32.8 months (range, 2.3-95) after surgery. Four patients revealed aseptic loosening, whereas infection in 4. The 10-year prosthesis survivorship was 88.6%. For patients receiving unilateral TKR, the mean length of hospital stay was 15 days (range, 7-32). The mean cost of factor supplement was United States Dollar (USD) 43 543 with a mean 4-unit packed red blood cells transfusion (range, 0-38). The total admission cost was USD 48 326 (range, USD 4165-262 619). CONCLUSION The prevalence of TKA for hemophilia patients was 7.5% in Taiwan. The mean hospital stay was 14 days, and the 10-year prosthesis survivorship was 88.6%. The mean daily factor usage was decreased from 235.7 units preoperatively to 202.1 units postoperatively. In comparison with the staged-bilateral TKRs, the simultaneous procedures significantly reduced the mean total cost from USD 101 923 to USD 61 587 (p = 0.023). Therefore, in terms of cost-effectiveness, bilateral simultaneous TKR is more preferable than staged procedures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this article has been to review the literature on total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in people with hemophilia (PWH), to mention the lessons we have learned from our own experience and to try to find out what the future of this type of surgery will be. AREAS COVERED A Cochrane Library and PubMed (MEDLINE) search of studies related to TKA PWH was analyzed. In PWH, the complication rate after TKA can be up to 31.5%. These include infection (7.1%) and bleeding in the form of hematoma, hemarthrosis or popliteal artery injury (8.9%). In a meta-analysis the revision arthroplasty rate was 6.3%. One-stage or two-stage revision arthroplasty due to infection (septic loosening) is not always successful despite providing correct treatment (both hematological and surgical). In fact, the risk of prosthetic re-infection is about 10%. It is necessary to perform a re-revision arthroplasty, which is a high-risk and technically difficult surgery that can sometimes end in knee arthrodesis or above-the-knee amputation of the limb. EXPERT OPINION TKA (both primary and revision) should be performed in centers specialized in orthopedic surgery and rehabilitation (knee) and hematology (hemophilia), and with optimal coordination between the medical team.

Abstract
While satisfactory results have been reported during short-to mid-term follow-up assessments of hemophilic patients who have undergone total knee arthroplasty (TKA), limited literature focusing on long-term survival following TKA exists to date. As part of this investigation, a consecutive series of 78 TKAs in 56 patients with hemophilic arthropathy was reviewed. The mean patient age at the time of operation was 38.7 years old and the mean length of follow up was 10.2 years. Clinical and radiologic outcomes, quality of life, complications, and long-term survivorship of TKA were evaluated. At the latest point of follow up, the average American Knee Society (AKS) knee and function scores had improved from 32.1 to 85.7 points and 41.5 to 83.3 points, respectively. Moreover, the average range of motion (ROM) was significantly increased from 64.2° preoperatively to 84.2° postoperatively. The physical and mental Short Form-36 results were also significantly improved at the latest point of follow up. Postoperative complications appeared in 12 knees (15.4%). The readmission rate in the 30 days after discharge was 6.4%. Revision TKA was performed in three knees for periprosthetic joint infection (n = 2 knees) and tibial component loosening (n = 1 knee). The Kaplan-Meier 10- and 13-year prosthesis survival rates were 97.1% and 93.2%, respectively. The current study suggests that the mid-to long-term results of TKA in patients with hemophilic arthropathy are favorable, with successful long-term prosthesis survival achievable in most cases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can improve knee function in the general population, but challenges arise for TKA use in haemophilic patients (HPs). AIM This study aimed to evaluate the midterm clinical experience of a single medical centre in TKA in HPs. METHODS We performed a case series of consecutive TKAs from 2007 to 2013 in HPs. All patients received coagulation factor supplementation according to the institutional protocol. Surgery was performed without a tourniquet by a standard midline medial parapatellar approach. We compared the range of motion (ROM) and flexion contracture before surgery and 1-year postoperative using paired Wilcoxon-non-parametric test (P < .05 was considered significant). The need for revision surgery was considered TKA survival failure. RESULTS Forty-one HP/60 TKAs were reviewed (19 cases were bilateral). Preoperative median ROM and flexion contracture was 75° (range, 0°-95°) and 20° (range, 5°-80°), respectively. The postoperative median ROM increased to 83° (range, 45°-110°), and median flexion contracture decrease to 0° (range, 0°-40°) a statistically significant difference (P < .01). Postoperative median clinical Knee Society Score (KSS) and functional KSS were 88 (range, 59-97) and 100 (range, 30-100), respectively. Six patients required revision (6.66%) due to infection. TKA survival at 5 years was 92% (range, 82%-96%). CONCLUSION This study supports that TKA improves function and ROM in haemophilic knee arthropathy. The protocol of coagulation factors used in this cohort is valid as no related complications were reported. A higher incidence of complications, especially infections, must be expected compared with a TKA in non-HPs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Knee arthropathy is a frequent complication affecting hemophilic patients, which can cause severe pain and disability. When conservative measures fail, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may be performed. METHODS Eighteen TKA were performed in 15 patients with hemophilia during a 24-year period in a Hemophilia Comprehensive Care Center. All patients were evaluated by a multidisciplinary team constituted by a hematologist, an orthopedic surgeon, and a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician. Mean follow-up was 11.3 years. RESULTS Ten-year survival rate with prosthesis removal as end point was 94.3%. At last, follow-up visual analog pain scale score was 3.2 points, knee osteoarthritis outcome scale was 86.7 points, and mean range of motion was 88°. Only two patients required perioperative transfusion. Complication rate was 27.8% and included two infections, two prosthesis stiffness, and one case of recurrent hemarthrosis. CONCLUSION After appropriate medical optimization and with prompt rehabilitation, TKA can be performed in hemophilic patients with good clinical results and survivor rates comparable to nonhemophilic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to compare the perioperative blood loss, need for transfusion and one-year revision rates in patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty who also have a diagnosis of von Willebrand disease (VWD) with a matched control group. METHODS A retrospective single-centre case-control study was conducted. Fifty-eight patients with VWD and 116 controls (1:2 match) who were operated for primary or revision hip and knee arthroplasty at our hospital were included. Blood loss, haemoglobin (Hb)-drop, need for blood transfusion, intraoperative complications and revision rates within one year were noted in all cases. Outcome measures for subgroups of the primary hip, primary knee, revision hip and revision knee procedures, were also analysed. RESULTS The mean perioperative Hb-drop was 3.47 (±1.27) g/dL and blood loss was 293 (±97) ml for the VWD group while Hb-drop was 2.85 (±1.21) g/dL and blood loss was 232 (±105) mL for the control group (P < .001). There were no significant increased transfusion rates (P = .264) and revision rates in the VWD group (P = .634). Patients having primary hip surgery had significantly higher Hb-drop (3.68 ± 1.25 g/dL vs 2.62 ± 1.19 g/dL; P = .003), higher blood loss (293 vs 203 mL; P = .002) and increased need for a transfusion (21% vs 2.6%; P = .038) compared to the controls. No outcome measure was found to be significantly different for primary and revision knee surgery. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that patients with VWD undergoing primary or revision total hip and knee arthroplasty have higher levels of blood loss than the control cohort. Perioperative protective measures including meticulous surgical techniques should be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes of total knee replacement in cases of hemophilic patients are worse than in patients who undergo operations due to osteoarthritis. Previous publications have reported varying rates of complications in hemophilic patients, such as infection and an unsatisfactory range of motion, which have influenced the survival of prostheses. Our retrospective study evaluated the data of hemophilic patients regarding changes in the development of the range of motion. METHODS The data and clinical outcomes of 72 total knee replacements in 45 patients with hemophilia types A and B were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were operated between 1998 and 2013. All of the patients were systematically followed up to record the range of motion and other parameters before and after surgery. RESULTS The mean preoperative flexion contracture was 17° ± 11° (range, 0°-40°), and it was 7° ± 12° (range, 0°-60°) postoperatively. The mean flexion of the knee was 73° ± 30° (range, 5°-135°) before the operation and 80° ± 19° (range, 30°-110°) at the last follow-up. The mean range of motion was 56° ± 34° (range, 0°-130°) before the operation and 73° ± 24° (range, 10°-110°) at the last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Statistical analysis suggested that the range of motion could be improved until the 9th postoperative week. The patient should be operated on until the flexion contracture reaches 22° to obtain a contracture < 15° postoperatively or until the contracture reaches 12° to obtain less than 5°. The operation generally does not change the flexion of the knee in cases of hemophilic patients, but it reduces the flexion contracture and therefore improves the range.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the ability of abnormal coagulation profile to predict adverse events following posterior cervical laminectomy and fusion (PCLF). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA PCLF is an increasingly common procedure used to treat a variety of traumatic and degenerative spinal conditions. Abnormal coagulation profile is associated with postoperative adverse events, including blood transfusion. There is a paucity of literature that specifically addresses the relationship between coagulation profile and complications following PCLF. METHODS ACS-NSQIP was utilized to identify patients undergoing PCLF between 2006 and 2013. A total of 3546 patients met inclusion criteria. Multivariate analysis was utilized to identify associations between abnormal coagulation profile and postoperative complications. RESULTS Membership in the low-platelet cohort was an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction (Odds Ratio (OR) = 5.4 [1.0, 29.1], P = 0.049) and bleeding transfusion (OR = 2.0 [1.2, 3.4], P = 0.011). Membership in the high international normalized ratio group was an independent risk factor for pneumonia (OR = 6.3 [2.5, 16.1], P < 0.001), ventilation >48 hours (OR = 6.5 [2.3, 18.4], P < 0.001), organ space surgical site infection (OR = 11.1 [2.1, 57.3], P = 0.004), urinary tract infection (OR = 3.0 [1.2, 8.0], P = 0.024), bleeding transfusion (OR = 6.0 [3.4, 10.7], P < 0.001), sepsis (OR = 5.1 [1.6, 16.4], P = 0.006), and septic shock (OR = 6.8 [1.7, 27.4], P = 0.007). Membership in the bleeding disorders cohort was an independent predictor of unplanned intubation (OR = 3.2 [1.1, 9.5], P = 0.041), pneumonia (OR = 2.9 [1.2, 7.2], P = 0.023), ventilation >48 hours (OR = 4.8 [1.9, 12.4], P = 0.001), cerebrovascular accident/stroke with neurological deficit (OR = 24.8 [2.9, 210.6], P = 0.003), bleeding transfusion (OR = 2.1 [1.1, 4.1], P = 0.032), reoperation (OR = 3.6 [1.4, 9.3], P = 0.008), and sepsis (OR = 3.4 [1.1, 10.4], P = 0.031). CONCLUSION This is the first large study to document abnormal coagulation profile as an independent predictor of outcomes following PCLF. Abnormal coagulation profile represents a predictor of complications that can be medically mitigated, and is therefore a valuable parameter to assess preoperatively. Coagulation profile should continue to play a role in targeting patients for risk stratification, preoperative optimization, and quality improvement initiatives. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3.

Abstract
SummaryHaemophilic arthropathy is a defining feature and a debilitating condition of persons with haemophilia (PwH) in low resource countries. Orthopaedic surgery is unavoidable for patients with high occurrence of joint damage. Aims: We aimed to evaluate the spectrum and outcome of invasive orthopaedic therapies in PwH and von Willebrand diseases (VWD). Patients and methods: Our descriptive observational retrospective study included 131 invasive surgical procedures, performed on 76 consecutive patients, most of them (93.4%) with severe disease, treated in Timisoara’s Haemophilia Center over a period of 12 years; 17.1% had pre-operation anti-FVIII inhibitors. Invasive elective procedures were predominant (90.8%) as compared to emergency measures (9.2%); according to their invasiveness, 20.6% of interventions were major, 44.3% intermediate and 35.1% minor. Results: were good in the majority of cases; significantly reduced joint bleed rate and pain score were the most consistent achievements. The greatest proportion of complications occurred after major (66.7%), compared to moderate (25.6%) and minor (7.7%) interventions. The main threatening complication was the development (3.8%) or increase (4.6%) of inhibitor titer. Local bacterial infections and wound dehiscence complicated the evolution in 4.6% and 0.8 % of cases, respectively; we noticed no blood-borne infections or thrombotic accidents. Low dosage (10.7%) and short duration of substitution (21.4%) led to increased post-surgical bleeding and post-haemorrhagic anaemia. Conclusions: Surgery is a highly demanding intervention in haemophilia, which cannot be ignored in a low resource country. It represents a life or limb-saving and quality of life-improving measure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in haemophilic arthropathy can reduce severe joint pain and improve functional disability, it is technically demanding. AIM To evaluate mid-term outcomes and complications of TKA in haemophilic arthropathy. METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed 131 consecutive primary TKAs in a single institute. The mean age was 41.0 years old, and the mean follow-up period was 6.8 years. Clinical and radiographic results were evaluated. Complications were categorized according to the classification system of the Knee Society for TKA complications. RESULTS The average Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score improved from 66.0 to 24.2. The average flexion contracture significantly decreased from 17.3° to 4.7°, but the average pre- and postoperative maximum flexion did not differ (80.9° vs 85.6°, respectively). The average mechanical axis was varus 5.2° preoperatively and valgus 0.3° postoperatively. The coronal positions of the femoral and tibial components and the sagittal positions of these components were within ±3° in 83.2%, 89.3%, 63.4% and 73.3% of cases, respectively. Complications occurred in 17 knees (13.0%): hemarthrosis (n = 7), medial collateral ligament injury (n = 1), stiffness (n = 2), deep periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) (n = 3) and periprosthetic fracture (n = 4). CONCLUSIONS The mid-term results of TKA in haemophilic arthropathy were satisfactory in pain relief, improved function and decreased flexion contracture. Bleeding and PJI continue to be major concerns for TKA in haemophilic arthropathy, and risk of periprosthetic fracture must be taken into account for patient education and appropriate prevention.

Abstract
The musculoskeletal manifestations of hemophilia A and B are some of the most common presenting symptoms and continue to be challenging to practitioners. Hemophilic arthropathy, if not initially adequately treated and managed, may lead to debilitating disease and eventually require the consideration of major surgery, including total joint arthroplasty. Thorough comprehension of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and both medical and surgical interventions is critical in establishing an appropriate treatment regimen for these patients. Furthermore, a true multidisciplinary approach involving hematology, orthopedics, and physical therapy is essential for a patient with hemophilic arthropathy. The authors present a comprehensive review of hemophilic arthropathy from an orthopedist's perspective. [Orthopedics. 2017; 40(6):e940-e946.].

Abstract
PURPOSE Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for patients with end-stage haemophilic arthropathy is considered to be a successful procedure with satisfying mid- to long-term results. It was the purpose of this study to provide clinical and radiological long-term results of TKAs implanted in a consecutive cohort of haemophilic patients. METHODS Primary TKA was performed in 43 consecutive knees in 30 haemophilic patients. After a mean of 18 (SD ± 4) years, 15 patients (21 knees) with a mean age of 58 (SD ± 8) years were available for follow-up. The outcome was assessed using the Knee Society score, WOMAC, SF-36, Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis as well as radiographic evaluation of radiolucency. RESULTS In 13 (30%) of the 43 consecutive knees, revision surgery was necessary due to infection or aseptic loosening, among which eight (19%) due to aseptic loosening and five (12%) due to haematogenous infection. The calculated 20-year survival rates with revision for any reason or infection as the end points were 59 and 82%, respectively. All patients with the primary TKA in situ observed progressive radiolucent lines around the implants at the final follow-up. The Knee Society clinical and functional score significantly improved from pre- (36 points; SD ± 16 and 62 points; SD ± 19) to post-operatively (73 points; SD ± 15 and 78 points; SD ± 18; p < 0.001). Eighty-six per cent rated their result as either good or excellent. Whereas flexion did not improve, flexion contracture could be reduced significantly from 18° (SD ± 12) to 6° (SD ± 5; p < 0.001) post-operatively. CONCLUSION Total knee arthroplasty in haemophilic patients is associated with high revision, loosening and infection rates after 18 years. However, if revision can be avoided, joint replacement in haemophilic patients helps to relieve pain, achieve higher subjective satisfaction and to restore knee function. Level of evidence IV.

Abstract
AIM To collect data from joint replacement in inhibitor patients, evaluate haemostatic and patient outcomes, and analyse the costs.
METHODS We report our 21-year, single-centre cumulative experience of 15 joint arthroplasties in six inhibitor patients.
RESULTS Two low responder inhibitor patients were in the early days treated with FVIII, whereas bypassing agents were used in the rest of the high responder patients. The primary haemostatic outcome was good in 8/15, fair in 4/15 and poor in 3/15 operations. The overall patient outcome, including joint health and patient satisfaction, was good in 10/15, fair 4/15 and poor in 1/15. No deep infections were observed. Cost analysis was most beneficial in low responders and in two immune-tolerized, high responder patients. In all cases, factor replacement comprised the main treatment costs.
CONCLUSION Our experience supports the initial use of bypassing agents as well as preoperative immune-tolerance induction when possible. Despite the challenges of haemostasis and severe joint disease, total joint arthroplasty can reach a good outcome, even in inhibitor patients. The risk for deep infection might be smaller than previously reported. Individual planning, intense multidisciplinary teamwork and execution of operations should be centralised in a professional unit.

Abstract
Background Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has become the treatment of choice for end-stage hemophilic arthropathy of the knee. Theoretically in hemophilia A, perioperative continuous infusion (CI) of factor VIII (FVIII) would provide a more consistent FVIII level than general bolus injections (BI) in TKA. Current study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of CI of coagulation factor concentrates during the perioperative period compared to BI. Methods A total of 42 TKAs were performed in 31 patients with severe hemophilia A. Under the supervision of a multidisciplinary hemophilia team, CI and BI were monitored during application of a standardized regimen. Perioperative clinical parameters including postoperative hemoglobin drop, drained blood volume, transfusion rate, total consumption of FVIII, and perioperative complications were assessed. Results The difference in the postoperative hemoglobin drop was significant between two groups with a lower decrease in the CI group (p = 0.002). The drained blood volume for postoperative 24 h was significantly lower in the CI than the BI groups (p = 0.037). Total consumption of factor concentrates for postoperative 5 days was greater in the CI group than in the BI group (p = 0.000). One postoperative hematoma and wound dehiscence occurred in BI group and no other complication developed. Conclusions Although good control of hemostasis could be achieved using either method during the perioperative period of TKA, CI seems more tolerable and effective than BI to provide perioperative blood management undergoing TKA in patients with hemophilia. Trial registration The study was retrospectively registered in WHO ICTRP under identifier KCT0002404 (date of registration: August 04, 2017).

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify associations between abnormal coagulation profile and postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing posterior lumbar fusion (PLF). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The literature suggests that abnormal coagulation profile is associated with postoperative complications, notably the need for blood transfusion. However, there is little research that directly addresses the influence of coagulation profile on postoperative complications following PLF. METHODS The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database (ACS-NSQIP) was utilized to identify patients undergoing PLF between 2006 and 2013. Nine thousand two hundred ninety-five patients met inclusion criteria. Multivariate analysis was utilized to identify associations between abnormal coagulation profile and postoperative complications. RESULTS Low platelet count was an independent risk factor for organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) [odds ratio (OR) = 6.0, P < 0.001], ventilation >48 hours (OR = 4.5, P = 0.002), Acute renal failure (OR = 5.8, P = 0.007), transfusion (OR = 1.6, P < 0.001), sepsis (OR = 2.2, P = 0.037), reoperation (OR = 2.5, P = 0.001), and death (OR = 3.7, P = 0.049). High partial thromboplastin time (PTT) was an independent risk factor for ventilation >48 hours (OR = 5.6, P = 0.002), cerebrovascular accident (CVA)/stroke with neurological deficit (OR = 5.1, P = 0.011), cardiac arrest (OR = 5.4, P = 0.030), transfusion (OR = 1.5, P = 0.020), and death (OR = 4.5, P = 0.050). High International Normalized Ration (INR) was an independent risk factor for pneumonia (OR = 8.7, P = 0.001), pulmonary embolism (OR = 5.6, P = 0.021), deep venous thrombosis/Thrombophlebitis (OR = 4.8, P = 0.011), septic shock (OR = 8.4, P = 0.048), and death (OR = 9.8, P = 0.034). Bleeding disorder was an independent risk factor for organ space SSI (OR = 5.4, P = 0.01), pneumonia (OR = 3.0, P = 0.023), and sepsis (OR = 4.4, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Abnormal coagulation profile was an independent predictor of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing PLF. As such, it should be considered in preoperative optimization and risk stratification.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION People with haemophilia (PWH) experience end stage joint disease as a result of repeated hemarthrosis, commonly leading to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). AIM The goal of this meta-analysis is to calculate expected outcomes for range of motion (ROM), functional mobility, and complication rates in PWH following TKA. METHODS Studies published between 1980 and 2015 were identified. INCLUSION CRITERIA PWH having TKA, reporting Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score or Knee Society Score, knee ROM, and incidence of complications for more than 5 TKAs. Inhibitor status, haemophilia severity and HIV status were not criteria for inclusion or exclusion. Meta-analysis was performed using mean, standard deviation, or P-value data to create effect sizes (ES) and 95% confidence intervals for each variable. RESULTS Twenty studies met inclusion criteria; ten had sufficient data for meta-analyses. A total of 336 TKAs in 254 PWH were analysed with mean follow-up of 6.3 years. Statistically significant ROM improvements were found with 9.72° improvement of flexion contracture (-0.73 effect size (ES) (-0.91 to -0.56)), and 15.69°increase into flexion (0.63 ES (0.34-0.91)). Knee scores showed statistically significant improvements: clinically, 37.9 point increase (3.21 ES [1.79-4.63]) and functionally, 13.50 point increase (1.50 ES [0.80-2.21]). A 31.5% complication rate was calculated with 106 reported in 336 TKAs. CONCLUSIONS TKA is an effective procedure for improving ROM and decreasing functional deficits resulting from haemophilic arthropathy. Knee score data shows TKA improves overall function. This study guides clinicians regarding outcome expectations post-TKA in PWH.

Abstract
Background The results of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with inherited bleeding disorders (IBDs) are poorer when compared with those in the general population, with a notably higher risk of complications and higher revision rates. Thus, revision procedures are becoming a growing concern in this group of patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of revision TKA in patients with IBD. Material/Methods A retrospective cohort study with longitudinal assessment of hemophilia patients scheduled for revision TKA between January 2010 and September 2015 was performed. The clinical status of the patients was assessed based on the Knee Society Score, and the Numeric Rating Scale was used to assess knee pain severity and patient satisfaction with the surgery. Radiological examination, post-operative complications, and reinterventions were recorded and analyzed. Results Very good results were obtained in all patients treated for aseptic loosening of the implant. However, inferior results were found in cases with infection. All patients operated on for aseptic loosening required only single-stage TKA, whereas patients with infection underwent multiple interventions. Complications were observed only in cases with infection. Conclusions Our study clearly outlined the differences in results based on failure mode, with far inferior results obtained in cases with infection. Given the lack of data in this area as well as the high specificity of this population, further high-quality studies are needed.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective database review. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare complication rates following one to two-level lumbar spine surgery in patients with primary hypercoagulable states and coagulopathies. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Both hypercoagulable states and coagulopathies are not uncommon conditions that have the potential to significantly alter perioperative patient management. However, there are few studies that document the added risk of medical complications following spine surgery in these patient populations. METHODS The PearlDiver database (2005-2012) was utilized to determine perioperative complication rates in patients with primary hypercoagulable states and coagulopathies who underwent primary one to two-level posterolateral lumbar spine fusion. Control cohorts without specific hematologic disorders were matched by demographics and comorbidities. Ninety-day complication rates were determined, along with revision rates at one and two years. When considering complication rate comparisons between matched cohorts, P < 0.005 was considered significant. RESULTS In total, 746 patients with coagulopathies and 2753 patients with primary hypercoagulable states were selected. Matched control cohorts contained 74,879 and 54,007 patients, respectively. Hypercoagulable patients had significantly increased rates of medical complications [odds ratio (OR) 1.4], infections (OR 1.6), and venous thromboembolisms (OR 9.0) during the three months following spine surgery and same-day transfusions (OR 1.2) when compared with matched controls (P < 0.001). Patients with von Willebrand disease or hemophilia had increased rates of three-month infections (OR 2.3) and transfusion (OR 2.0) when compared with a matched control group (P < 0.005). One- and two-year revisions rates were not significantly higher for either pathologic cohort when compared to matched controls. CONCLUSION Both primary hypercoagulable states and coagulopathies increase infection and transfusion rates following one to two-level lumbar spine surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Haemophilic arthropathy (HA) is a debilitating complication of haemophilia which leads to TKA in severe cases. AIM We conducted a prospective study of the outcome of TKA in our haemophilia cohort to define the outcomes in this population and increase the cost effectiveness of the procedure in our developing country. METHODS We reviewed patients with haemophilia who underwent TKA between April 2010 and April 2014. Patients with at least 6 months of follow-up were included. Preoperative knee scores (KSS and WOMAC) and the scores of the quality of life were recorded. Radiographic indices were registered pre- and postoperatively. Any complications were recorded. The patients underwent TKA with medial parapatellar approach. We had a low threshold for quadriceps snip when exposure was difficult. As our routine we did not use suction drains postoperatively. RESULTS We included 83 patients (all males, 103 knees). The mean age of the patients was 35.8 years. The mean follow-up period was 45.1 months. Three patients (3.6%) had factor inhibitors. Twenty patients (24.1%) underwent bilateral simultaneous TKA. The mean admission time was 13.87 days. We had two cases of wound infection and one case of haematoma. None of our patients needed transfusion. All knee scores were significantly improved (P < 0.000). CONCLUSION Total knee replacement is an effective procedure in treatment of HA. Definition of standards of care for this procedure, which are tailored for resources of a developing country, can have major impact in improving outcomes while maximizing cost effectiveness of this surgery.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effectiveness of our department's therapeutic regimen and treatment of complications during the perioperative period of hemophilia-related osteoarthropathy. METHODS In this retrospective study, data on 101 patients with hemophilia who had undergone operative treatment in our hospital from January 2000 to August 2014 were assessed. Ninety-one of the patients had hemophilia A and 10 hemophilia B. All patients were male. Changes in Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), Harris and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores, occurrence of complications during the perioperative period and the clinical treatment and prognosis pre- and postoperatively and during follow-up were analyzed. Relevant clinical data were obtained through telephone calls, outpatient follow-up, and medical clinical record searches. RESULTS The 101 patients who were followed up (for an average of 96 months) had 147 orthopedic operations, including joint replacement, hemophilia-related false tumor resections, and tendo-achillis lengthening. The HSS scores for knee surgeries increased from 52 points preoperatively to 86 postoperatively, Harris scores for hip joint surgery from 26 to 87 points, respectively, and AOFAS scores for foot and ankle surgeries from 39 to 81 points, respectively. Eight patients had wound complications, four intra-articular hematomas, two peroneal nerve injuries, one a proximal femur splitting fracture and one deep venous thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS Surgical treatment is a safe and reliable choice for addressing complications including hemophilia-related osteoarthropathy given the implementation of effective measures for treatment during the perioperative period.

Abstract
Little is known about perioperative complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with bleeding disorders. This study utilized a national database to evaluate postoperative complication rates and up to 8-year revision rates after TKA in patients with hemophilia (n=3396) and von Willebrand's disease (n=1379) compared to a matched cohort of patients without a bleeding disorder (n=427,132 and n=394,657 respectively). Hemophilia and von Willebrand's disease were associated with significantly higher rates of infection, transfusion of blood products, medical complications, and revision after TKA compared to matched controls. Hemophilia was associated with significantly higher rates of venous thromboembolism and transfusion compared to patients with von Willebrand's disease and matched controls after TKA.
