AbstractIntraoperative fracture of the proximal tibia is a rare complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with few studies available reporting risk factors or prognosis. A review of our prospective joint registry was performed to determine the incidence and associated risk factors of intraoperative tibia fractures during primary TKA; 14,966 TKAs of all manufacturers were performed with 9 intraoperative tibia fractures. All fractures occurred in a single TKA design. There were 8,155 TKAs of this design performed with a fracture incidence of 0.110%. All but one fracture occurred on the medial tibial plateau, and all but one occurred during preparation of the tibia with keel punching. A control group of 75 patients (80 knees) with the same TKA design were randomly selected. Baseplates size 3 or smaller were less likely to experience an intraoperative fracture (odds ratio [OR]: 0.864, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.785–0.951), as were knees with a polyethylene insert thickness of 13 mm or larger (OR: 0.882, 95% CI: 0.812–0.957). Fractures were treated with a variety of different methods, but every patient had at least one screw placed and most (67%) had postoperative weight-bearing restrictions. At final follow-up, there were no cases of nonunion, component subsidence, or need for reoperation. Intraoperative tibia fractures are a rare complication of this TKA design at 0.11%. Knees with baseplates of size ≤3 and polyethylene thickness ≥13 mm were less likely to experience intraoperative fracture. These findings may be related to the depth of tibial resection, requiring the use of a thicker polyethylene insert, and a change in the keel width in implants size 4 or larger. No fracture patients required reoperation.

Increasing Trends

AbstractGiven increasing demand for primary knee arthroplasties, revision surgery is also expected to increase, with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) a main driver of costs. Recent data on national trends is lacking. We aimed to assess trends in PJI in total knee arthroplasty revisions and hospitalization costs. From the National Inpatient Sample (2003–2016), we extracted data on total knee arthroplasty revisions (n = 782,449). We assessed trends in PJI prevalence and (inflation-adjusted) hospitalization costs (total as well as per-day costs) for all revisions and stratified by hospital teaching status (rural/urban by teaching status), hospital bed size (≤299, 300–499, and ≥500 beds), and hospital region (Northeast, Midwest, South, and West). The Cochran–Armitage trend test (PJI prevalence) and linear regression determined significance of trends. PJI prevalence overall was 25.5% (n = 199,818) with a minor increasing trend: 25.3% (n = 7,828) in 2003 to 28.9% (n = 19,275) in 2016; p < 0.0001. Median total hospitalization costs for PJI decreased slightly ($23,247 in 2003–$20,273 in 2016; p < 0.0001) while median per-day costs slightly increased ($3,452 in 2003–$3,727 in 2016; p < 0.0001), likely as a function of decreasing length of stay. With small differences between hospitals, the lowest and highest PJI prevalences were seen in small (≤299 beds; 22.9%) and urban teaching hospitals (27.3%), respectively. In stratification analyses, an increasing trend in PJI prevalence was particularly seen in larger (≥500 beds) hospitals (24.4% in 2003–30.7% in 2016; p < 0.0001), while a decreasing trend was seen in small-sized hospitals. Overall, PJI in knee arthroplasty revisions appears to be slightly increasing. Moreover, increasing trends in large hospitals and decreasing trends in small-sized hospitals suggest a shift in patients from small to large volume hospitals. Decreasing trends in total costs, alongside increasing trends in per-day costs, suggest a strong impact of length of stay trends and a more efficient approach to PJI over the years (in terms of shorter length of stay).
