Abstract Background: The use of Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA) has increased rapidly in both Western and Asian populations, with excellent functional outcomes and high patient satisfaction. While previous evidence regarding clinical outcomes and survival rates after Oxford UKA was based on studies in Western populations, the results may be different in Asian patients. The relevance of age for postoperative function after Oxford UKA also remains unclear. Hence, the aim of our study was to clarify the effectiveness and safety of Oxford UKA in Asian patients aged over 80 years.Methods: A retrospective review was performed and included 195 patients (209 knees) who underwent an Oxford UKA between June 2015 and July 2018. We divided the patients into three groups by age: Group 1, 60-69 years; Group 2, 70-79 years; and Group 3, over 80 years. We used the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score and Western Ontario and McMaster (WOMAC) Universities Osteoarthritis Index score to evaluate the general condition of the patients’ knees before surgery and at last follow-up. We also recorded perioperative and short-term complications.Result: Group 1 consisted of 60 patients (60 knees); Group 2, 70 patients (79 knees); and Group 3, 65 patients (70 knees). The mean follow-up was 21.34 ± 12.04, 22.08 ± 11.38, and 21.76 ± 10.20 months in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. At last follow-up, the patients in Group 3 showed lower function scores compared to groups 1 and 2 (P <0.05), but the HSS scores and the WOMAC scores were significantly improved in all three groups. In terms of perioperative and other complications, the three age groups did not differ significantly.Conclusion: Oxford UKA is an effective and safe treatment for osteoarthritis, even in elderly patients in China. Elderly patients have lower knee function scores than younger patients. However, the knee joint pain of the elderly patients was relieved and function improved compared to the preoperative condition.

Abstract Background: The use of Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA) has increased rapidly both Western and Asian populations. And Oxford UKA also has excellent functional outcomes with high patient satisfaction. While previous evidence regarding clinical outcomes and survival rate after Oxford UKA based on studies in western populations, results may be different in Asian patients. Thus, the relevance of age for postoperative function after Oxford UKA is therefore still unclear. Hence, the aim of our study was to clarify the effectiveness and safety of Oxford UKA in Asian patients aged over 80 years. Methods: A retrospective review was performed of 195 patients (209 knees)who underwent OxfordUKA between June 2015 and January 2018. We divided all patients into threegroups (ages 60–69; ages 70-79; age over 80). We used the HSS score and WOMAC score to evaluate the general condition of the patients’ knees before surgery and at last follow-up.We also recorded perioperative complications and short-termcomplications. Result: 60 patients (60 knees) between the ages of 60 and 69 (Group 1), 70 patients (79 knees) between the ages of 70-79 (Group 2) and 65 patients (70 knees) over 80 years old (Group 3) were included in the study. The mean follow-up was 21.34±12.04, 22.08±11.38 and 21.76 ± 10.20 months in Group 1, 2 and 3, respectively.At last follow-up, the patients in Group 3 showed lower function scores as compared to group 1 and 2 ( P <0.05), butthe HSS score and the WOMAC score were significantly improved in three groups after surgery. In terms of perioperative and other complications, the three age groups did not differ significantly. Conclusion: Oxford UKA is an effective and safe treatment for osteoarthritis, even in old adult patients in China.Elderly patients have lower knee function scores than younger patients. But the knee joint pain symptoms of the elderly patients are relieved and the function is also improved compare to preoperative condition.

AbstractAs the United States' octogenarian population (persons 80–89 years of age) continues to grow, understanding the risk profile of surgical procedures in elderly patients becomes increasingly important. The purpose of this study was to compare 30-day outcomes following unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in octogenarians with those in younger patients. The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried. All patients, aged 60 to 89 years, who underwent UKA from 2005 to 2016 were included. Patients were stratified by age: 60 to 69 (Group 1), 70 to 79 (Group 2), and 80 to 89 years (Group 3). Multivariate regression models were estimated for the outcomes of hospital length of stay (LOS), nonhome discharge, morbidity, reoperation, and readmission within 30 days following UKA. A total of 5,352 patients met inclusion criteria. Group 1 status was associated with a 0.41-day shorter average adjusted LOS (99.5% confidence interval [CI]: 0.67–0.16 days shorter, p < 0.001) relative to Group 3. Group 2 status was not associated with a significantly shorter LOS compared with Group 3. Both Group 1 (odds ratio [OR] = 0.15, 99.5% CI: 0.10–0.23) and Group 2 (OR = 0.33, 99.5% CI: 0.22–0.49) demonstrated significantly lower adjusted odds of nonhome discharge following UKA compared with Group 3. There was no significant difference in adjusted odds of 30-day morbidity, readmission, or reoperation when comparing Group 3 patients with Group 1 or Group 2. While differences in LOS and nonhome discharge were seen, octogenarian status was not associated with increased adjusted odds of 30-day morbidity, readmission, or reoperation. Factors other than age may better predict postoperative complications following UKA.

Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty

Abstract Background: Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (OUKA) yields favorable outcomes in patients with medial compartmental knee osteoarthritis; however, it remains unknown whether cemented or cementless OUKA fixation delivers better outcomes in Asian population. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate the complications, reasons for reoperation, and 5-year prosthesis survival compared between cemented and cementless OUKA in Thai patients.Methods: A total of 466 cemented and 36 cementless OUKA that were performed during 2011-2015 with a minimum follow-up of five years were included. With reoperation for any reason as the endpoint, Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to compare 5-year implant survival between groups. Complications, reasons for reoperation, and 90-day morbidity and mortality were compared between groups. Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify independent predictors of implant survival.Results: There was no significant difference in 5-year implant survival between the cemented and cementless groups (96.4% vs. 94.4%, p=0.375). The mean implant survival time was 113.0±0.8 and 70.8±1.9 months in the cemented and cementless groups, respectively (p=0.383). The most common reason for reoperation was bearing dislocation, and only one patient had 90-day morbidity. There was no significant difference between groups for complications or reasons for reoperation. No independent predictors of implant survival were identified in multivariate analysis.Conclusions: OUKA was shown to be a safe and durable reconstructive procedure in Thai patients with medial compartmental knee osteoarthritis. There was no significant difference in implant survival between the cemented and cementless groups during the 5-year follow-up, and no independent predictors of implant survival were identified.

AbstractThere have been many reports on the clinical outcomes of Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA); however, none have investigated the influence of flexion angle after UKA on clinical outcomes. The objective of this study was to clarify the relationship between outcomes and the postoperative maximum flexion angle and reveal the necessary factors for maximum flexion angle ≥ 140 degrees which is considered necessary for Asian populations. We categorized 212 UKA patients into the following three groups based on the postoperative maximum flexion angle: group 1 had flexion angle ≥ 140 degrees in 80 patients (38%), group 2 had 130 degrees ≤ flexion angle < 140 degrees in 80 patients (38%), and group 3 had flexion angle < 130 degrees in 52 patients (24%). Furthermore, we compared the postoperative clinical outcomes between the three groups and conducted multivariable regression analyses to assess parameters affecting the flexion angle. Postoperative Knee Society function scores for group 1 was significantly higher than for group 3. Group 1 had higher mean knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome scores (KOOS) in all subscales and significantly higher KOOS scores in the sports and quality of life subscales compared with group 2 and in all subscales compared with group 3. Multivariable logistic regression showed that preoperative flexion angle and tibial component posterior slope were associated with maximum flexion angle ≥ 140 degrees. Maximum flexion angle ≥ 140 degrees after Oxford UKA improved the clinical results, particularly for patient-reported outcomes. Furthermore, the tibial posterior slope was an important factor in achieving maximum flexion angle ≥ 140 degrees in UKA patients.

Purpose. The use of uncemented unicompartmental knee prostheses has recently increased. However, few studies on the outcomes of uncemented unicompartmental knee prostheses have been performed. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of cemented and uncemented Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.Materials and Methods. This retrospective observational study evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of 263 medial Oxford unicompartmental prostheses (141 cemented, 122 uncemented) implanted in 235 patients. The mean follow-up was 42 months in the cemented group and 30 months in the uncemented group.Results. At the last follow-up, there were no significant differences in the clinical results or survival rates between the two groups. However, the operation time in the uncemented unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group was shorter than that in the cemented unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group. In addition, the cost of uncemented arthroplasty was greater.Conclusion. Despite the successful midterm results in the uncemented unicompartmental knee arthroplasty group, a longer follow-up period is required to determine the best fixation mode.

Abstract Background: Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA) has increased rapidly around the world, and the effectiveness and safety of a minimally invasive surgical approach for it demonstrate excellent outcome. Oxford UKA represents an interesting solution for older patients. The aim of our study is to evaluate the perioperative complications and short-term clinical outcome and analyze the safety for older patients who undergo Oxford UKA.Methods: A retrospective review was performed of all patients who underwent Oxford UKA between June 2015 and January 2018. We divided all patients into two groups (ages 60–80; age over 80). We used the HSS score and WOMAC score to evaluate the general condition of the patients’ knees. We also recorded perioperative complications and long-term complications. Result:130 patients (139 knees) between the ages of 60 and 80 (Group 1) and 65 patients (70 knees) over 80 years old (Group 2) were included in the study. The mean follow-up was 22.04 ± 11.04 and 21.76 ± 10.20 months in Group 1 and 2, respectively. At last follow-up, the patients in Group 2 showed lower function scores, but both the HSS score and the WOMAC score were significantly improved in both groups after surgery. The rate of perioperative complications and other complications in elderly patients is the same as in younger patients. Conclusion: Oxford UKA showed validity and safety for elderly patients in China. The knee joint pain symptoms of the elderly patients are relieved and the function is well restored, but the function is still poor compared with the younger patients.

Abstract Background Hybrid Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (OUKA) consists of cementless femoral prostheses and cemented tibial prostheses. Although a hybrid OUKA has been used in clinical practice, the clinical outcome has not been reported. The purpose of this study was to compare the short-term clinical outcomes and rate of residual bone cement extrusion between hybrid and cemented prostheses and analyse the possible reasons for differences between outcomes. Methods A total of 128 knees (118 patients) with end-stage osteoarthritis were included in this study, of which underwent consecutive operations using unicondylar Oxford phase 3 implants from July 2017 and September 2019 in our centre. Follow-up was performed at 6 weeks, 3 and 6 months, 1 year and every year after operation, and complications and changes in the Oxford knee score (OKS) were recorded. The OKS of the two groups was analysed by the generalized estimating equation approach. Prosthesis-based standard fluoroscopy was performed in a timely manner after each operation, and the rate of residual cement extrusion of the two groups was estimated using T-tests and a multivariate regression analysis. Results Excluding the cases that lost follow-up, a total of 120 knees (65 in hybrid group and 55 in cemented group) were included in the analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in patient characteristics between the two groups (p > 0.05). The average follow-up time was 23.4 months (and ranged from 12 to 38 months). As of the last follow-up, there were no complications, such as dislocation, fracture, prosthesis loosening and subsidence, but one patient in the cemented group experienced symptoms caused by residual loose cement. Postoperative OKS in both groups improved significantly (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the OKS at any point during the follow-up or in the improvement of the OKS between the two groups (p > 0.05). Residual cement was mainly extruded behind the tibial prosthesis. The rate of hybrid periprosthetic residual cement extrusion was significantly lower in the hybrid group than in the cemented group, and the difference was statistically significant (OR = 3.38; p = 0.014). Conclusions Hybrid OUKA is as effective as cemented OUKA in the short term after operation and can significantly reduce the residual cement extrusion rate around the tibial prosthesis.
