Early failure with massive metallosis and posteromedial wear following atraumatic anterior cruciate ligament rupture after medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2018
Severe metallosis following medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is relatively rare. It is usually due to long-standing wear of the polyethylene component, resulting in frictional wear between the femoral and tibial metallic components ...

Patients with obesity have a higher risk of periprosthetic joint infection and more frequent polymicrobial infections after knee arthroplasty: A nationwide register‐based study from Denmark

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the 2‐year incidence of (1) revision due to periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and (2) all‐cause revision after primary knee arthroplasty (KA) in patients with/without obesity and to compare the microbial profiles in early (≤ 90 days) and late (91–730 days) PJI.

Better short-term function after unicompartmental compared to total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is an established treatment option for patients with unicompartmental osteoarthritis (OA). However, strict patient selection is crucial for its success.

Previous bariatric surgery was not associated with an increased risk of reintervention within 2 years after knee arthroplasty: A nationwide register‐based study from Denmark

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Obesity is a major risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Bariatric surgery (BAS) effectively induces weight loss, but some of these patients subsequently require knee arthroplasty (KA) despite substantial weight reduction. However, the impact of prior BAS on the risk of reintervention, antibiotic use and mortality following KA ...

Delayed Tibial-platform Periprosthetic Stress Fracture after Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty: Uncommon and Devastating Complication

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2018
Periprosthetic fracture around total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a well-described complication. Yet, report of medial tibial plateau stress fracture after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is limited.

‘Overall pain’ is strongly associated with patient satisfaction: An item‐level longitudinal analysis of the Oxford Knee Score in total and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose While the Oxford Knee Score (OKS) is linked with patient satisfaction following knee arthroplasty, item‐level associations are unknown. The primary aim of this study was to identify which of the 12 OKS questions were most strongly associated with satisfaction from early to 15‐year follow‐up to guide clinical practice towards improved ...

Not all previous surgeries are the same: Procedure‐specific infection risk in total knee arthroplasty patients with a history of previous knee surgery

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose While patient‐level factors for prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are well‐established, prior ipsilateral knee procedures are typically treated as a uniform risk factor despite likely variation in risk profile across procedure types.

Unicompartmental knee replacement - An Underrated Alternative of Total Knee Replacement: A Matched Comparative Study Analysing Their Benefits and Risks in Local Population

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2018
Introduction The demand of knee arthroplasty is increasing worldwide with aging population. Even though unicompartmental knee replacement is associated with fewer complications namely stroke, myocardial infarction, thrombo-embolism, blood transfusion and
