Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most common procedures in orthopaedics, but there is still debate over the optimal fixation method for long-term durability: cement versus cementless bone ingrowth. Recent improvements in implant materials and technology have offered the possibility of cementless TKA to change clinical practice with durable, stable biological fixation of the implants, improved operative efficiency, and optimal long-term results, particularly in younger and more active patients. METHODS This symposium evaluated the history of cementless TKA, the recent resurgence, and appropriate patient selection, as well as the historical and modern-generation outcomes of each implant (tibia, femur, and patella). Additionally, surgical technique pearls to assist in reliable, reproducible outcomes were detailed. RESULTS Historically, cemented fixation has been the gold standard for TKA. However, cementless fixation is increasing in prevalence in the United States and globally, with equivalent or improved results demonstrated in appropriately selected patients. CONCLUSION Cementless TKA provides durable biologic fixation and successful long-term results with improved operating room efficiency. Cementless TKA may be broadly utilized in appropriately selected patients, with intraoperative care taken to perform meticulous bone cuts to promote appropriate bony contact and biologic fixation.

[PMID: 38428692 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.02.067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has historically been considered a contraindication for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). However, the widespread use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs has substantially improved the management of RA and prevented disease progression. The objective of this study was to ascertain whether RA impacts UKA revision-free survivorship. METHODS Patients undergoing UKA from 2010 to 2021 were identified in an administrative claims database (n = 105,937) using Current Procedural Terminology code 27446. All patients who underwent UKA who had a diagnosis of RA with a minimum of 2-year follow-up (n = 1,422) were propensity score matched based on age, sex, and Elixhauser Comorbidity Index to those who did not have RA (n = 1,422). Laterality was identified using the 10th Revision of International Classification of Diseases codes. The primary outcome was ipsilateral revision to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) within 2 years, and the secondary outcome was ipsilateral revision at any time. RESULTS Among the 1,422 patients who had a UKA and a diagnosis of RA, 37 patients (2.6%) underwent conversion to TKA within 2 years, and 48 patients (3.4%) underwent conversion to TKA at any point. In comparison, 28 patients (2.0%) in the propensity-matched control group underwent conversion to TKA within 2 years, and 40 patients (2.8%) underwent conversion to TKA at any point. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in conversion to TKA between patients who had and did not have RA, either within 2 years (P = .31) or anytime (P = .45). CONCLUSIONS Patients who had RA and underwent UKA did not have an increased risk of revision to TKA compared to those who did not have RA. This may indicate that modern management of RA could allow for expanded UKA indications for RA patients.

Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this systematic review is to disclose the impact of autoimmune diseases and their medical treatment on dental implant survival and success. Material and Methods A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE (PubMed), The Cochrane Library and Embase up to December 6th, 2021. Any clinical study on patients with an autoimmune disease in whom implant therapy was performed was eligible. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. For each autoimmune disease group, data synthesis was divided into three groups: 1) overall results of the autoimmune disease, 2) overall results of corresponding control groups and 3) overall results of the autoimmune disease with a concomitant autoimmune disease (a subgroup of group 1). Descriptive statistics were used. Results Of 4,865 identified articles, 67 could be included and mainly comprising case reports and retrospective studies with an overall low quality. Implant survival rate was 50 to 100% on patient and implant level after a weighted mean follow-up of 17.7 to 68.1 months. Implant success was sporadically reported. Data on immunosuppressive medication were too heterogeneously reported to allow detailed analysis. Conclusions Overall, a high implant survival rate was reported in patients with autoimmune diseases. However, the identified studies were characterized by a low quality. No conclusions could be made regarding implant success and the effect of immunosuppressants due to heterogeneous reporting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) for patients aged ≤35 years are rare but necessary for patients who have diseases such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis, osteonecrosis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Few studies have examined the 10-year and 20-year survivorship and clinical outcomes of TKAs for young patients. METHODS A retrospective registry review identified 185 TKAs in 119 patients aged ≤ 35 years performed between 1985 and 2010 at a single institution. The primary outcome was implant survivorship free of revision. Patient-reported outcomes were assessed at 2 time points: 2011 to 2012 and 2018 to 2019. The average age was 26 years (range, 12 to 35). Mean follow-up was 17 years (range, 8 to 33). RESULTS Survivorship decreased from 84% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 79 to 90) at 5 years to 70% (95% CI: 64 to 77) at 10 years and to 37% (95% CI: 29 to 45) at 20 years. The most common reasons for revision were aseptic loosening (6%) and infection (4%). Risk factors for revision included increasing age at time of surgery (Hazards Ratio [HR] 1.3, P = .01) and use of constrained (HR 1.7, P = .05) or hinged prostheses (HR 4.3, P = .02). There were 86% of patients reporting that their surgery resulted in "a great improvement" or better. CONCLUSION Survivorship of TKAs in young patients is less favorable than expected. However, for the patients who responded to our surveys, TKA demonstrated substantial pain relief and improvement in function at 17-year follow-up. Revision risk increased with older age and higher levels of constraint.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been performed by orthopedic surgeons for decades, but the cementless TKA has only recently gained much interest in the world of arthroplasty. Initially, early designs had multiple complications, particularly with aseptic loosening due to osteolysis and micromotion. However, modifications have shown good outcomes and excellent survivorship. Over the last several decades, changes in implant designs as well as implant materials/coatings have helped with bone in growth and stability. Furthermore, surgeons have been performing TKA in younger and more obese patients as these populations have been increasing. Good results from the cementless TKA compared to cemented TKA may be a better option in these more challenging populations, as several studies have shown greater survivorship in patients that are younger and have a greater BMI. Additionally, a cementless TKA may be more cost effective, which remains a concern in today's healthcare environment. Overall, cemented and cementless TKA have great results in modern times and there is still a debate as to which implant is superior.

Abstract
Background Over the last decade, cementless total knee arthroplasty has demonstrated improved outcomes and survivorship due to advances in technologies of implant design, manufacturing capabilities, and biomaterials. Due to increasing interest in cementless implant design for TKA, our aim was to perform a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the clinical outcomes and revision rates of the Triathlon Total Knee system over the past decade. Methods A systematic review of the literature was conducted following PRISMA guidelines for patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty with cementless Triathalon Total Knee System implants. Patients had a minimum of two-year follow-up and data included clinical outcome scores and survivorship data. Results Twenty studies were included in the final analysis. The survivability of the Stryker Triathlon TKA due to all causes was 98.7%, with an aseptic survivability of 99.2%. The overall revision incidence per 1,000 person-years was 3.4. Re-revision incidence per 1,000 person-years was 2.2 for infection, and 1.3 for aseptic loosening. The average KSS for pain was 92.2 and the average KSS for function was 82.7. Conclusions This systematic review demonstrated excellent clinical outcomes and survivorship at a mean time of 3.8 years. Additional research is necessary to examine the long-term success of the Stryker Triathlon TKA and the use of cementless TKAs in obese and younger populations. Level of evidence III.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine current literature regarding the efficacy of total knee arthroplasty for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Studies that assessed total knee arthroplasty outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were identified on MEDLINE from January 2009 to November 2018. All 4 studies that assessed knee pain and 9 of 11 studies that assessed knee function noted significant improvement in average knee score. However, between 10% and 47% of patients had significant knee pain at final follow-up. Total knee arthroplasty provides significant improvement in knee pain and function for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. However, the rates of postoperative pain vary widely.

Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most common procedures performed in orthopaedic surgery. Traditionally, most TKAs have been performed by cementing the implant to the bone with polymethyl methacrylate to provide fixation. Noncemented implants that rely on boney ingrowth for fixation are increasingly appealing to surgeons, given success in total hip arthroplasty and the desire for long-term stability of implants in younger patients. Despite high failure rates with early designs, several series of recent designs have demonstrated improved survivorship, although this has not been confirmed in larger registry studies. Modern screwless designs with improved porous coating are thought to contribute to better ingrowth and have been designed to address previous implant pitfalls. Surgeons must be aware of the potential advantages and limitations of noncemented TKA.

Abstract
The number of total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) performed in the United States has increased considerably in recent years, with a major contribution from younger patients. Maximizing survivorship of these implants has always been a point of emphasis. Early TKA designs with cementless fixation were associated with high rates of complications and implant failures. However, recent advances in cementless designs have shown excellent results. The decision to use cemented or cementless fixation for patients undergoing TKA is typically based on the surgeon's experience and preference. However, several patient characteristics must also be taken into account. The purpose of this review was to describe the clinical outcomes of studies in which a cementless TKA system was utilized for patients who (1) were less than 60 years of age, (2) were greater than 75 years of age, (3) were obese, (4) had rheumatoid arthritis, and (5) had osteonecrosis of the knee. Based on the studies included in this review, it appears that cementless fixation is a viable option for patients who have all of the above demographics.

[PMID: 31883762 DOI: 10.1016/j.knee.2019.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2019] [Revised: 07/17/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cementless primary total knee arthroplasty shows numerous advantages compared with cemented implants (e.g., shorter operation time, preservation of the bone stock). Up to now an increasing number of clinical long-term studies exist. Despite this fact, there is no evidence about the influence of the postoperative leg alignment on the results of cementless knee arthroplasty. There is no work on the clinical outcome of the specific implant, which was used in this study (VANGUARD®, ZimmerBiomet). The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical and radiological long-term results after cementless knee arthroplasty in relation to the postoperative mechanical leg alignment. METHODS Clinical and radiological results were retrospectively assessed in 83 patients at 10.3 years (ranging from 9.6 to 11.8 years) after implantation. Hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) was measured, and the patients were separated into a corrected (HKA between three degrees of varus and three degrees of valgus, n = 60) and a varus/valgus (HKA > 3° of varus and valgus, n = 23) group. RESULTS Up to the time of the clinical follow-up, three out of 83 patients already underwent a revision surgery due to a deep infection (3.6%). Tegner-Lysholm Knee scale was 89.1 in the corrected group and 88.8 in the varus/valgus group (p = .94). The mean Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome score (KOOS) was 81.2 in the corrected group and 82.4 in the varus/valgus group (p = .63). CONCLUSIONS Results of this study showed convincing clinical and radiological results after primary cementless knee arthroplasty. Under- or overcorrected postoperative mechanical leg alignments did not influence the long-term clinical results.
