Background

Periprosthetic hip infection treatment remains a significant challenge for orthopedics. Some studies have suggested that methicillin resistance and gram-negative organism type are associated with increased treatment failure. The aim of this research is to determine if specific organisms were associated with poor outcomes in treatment for hip periprosthetic infection.

Methods

Records were reviewed of all patients between 2005 and 2015 who underwent treatment for infected partial or total hip arthroplasty. Characteristics of each patient's treatment course were determined including baseline characteristics, infecting organism(s), infection status at final follow-up, surgeries for infection, and time in hospital. Baseline characteristics and organisms that were associated with clinical outcomes in univariate analysis were incorporated into multivariable outcomes models.

Results

When compared with patients infected with other organism(s), patients infected with the following organisms had significantly decreased infection-free rates: Pseudomonas, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Proteus. Infection with certain organisms was associated with 1.13-2.58 additional surgeries: methicillin-sensitive S aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, MRSA, Pseudomonas, Peptostreptococcus, Klebsiella, Candida, diphtheroids, Propionibacterium acnes, and Proteus species. Specific organisms were associated with 8.56-24.54 additional days in hospital for infection: methicillin-sensitive S aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Proteus, MRSA, Enterococcus, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, beta-hemolytic Streptococcus, and diphtheroids. Higher comorbidity score was also associated with greater length of hospitalization.

Conclusion

MRSA, Pseudomonas, and Proteus were associated with all 3 outcomes of lower infection-free rate, more surgery, and more time in hospital in treatment for hip periprosthetic infection. Organism-specific outcome information may help individualize patient-physician discussions about the expected course of treatment for hip periprosthetic infection.  相似文献

Background

The global rise in infectious disease has led the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization to release new guidelines for the prevention of surgical site infection.

Methods

In this article, we summarize current recommendations based on level of evidence, review unresolved and unaddressed issues, and supplement them with new literature.

Results

Although the guidelines discuss major issues in reducing surgical site infection, many questions remain unanswered.

Conclusion

These guidelines will hopefully help in setting a standard of care based on best evidence available and focus investigators on areas where evidence is lacking.  相似文献

Background

While periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has a huge impact on patient function and health, only a few studies have investigated its impact on mortality. The purpose of this large-scale study was to (1) determine the rate and trends of in-hospital mortality for PJI and (2) compare the in-hospital mortality rate of patients with PJI and those undergoing revision arthroplasty for aseptic failure and patients undergoing other nonorthopedic major surgical procedures.

Methods

Data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2002 to 2010 were analyzed to determine the risk of in-hospital mortality for PJI patients compared with aseptic revision arthroplasty. The Elixhauser comorbidity index was used to obtain patient comorbidities. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to examine whether PJI and other patient-related factors were associated with mortality.

Results

PJI was associated with an increased risk (odds ratio, 2.05; P < .0001) of in-hospital mortality (0.77%) compared with aseptic revisions (0.38%). The in-hospital mortality rate of revision total hip arthroplasties with PJI was higher than those for interventional coronary procedures (1.22%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.20-1.24), cholecystectomy (1.13%; 95% CI, 1.11-1.15), kidney transplant (0.70%; 95% CI, 0.61-0.79), and carotid surgery (0.89%; 95% CI, 0.86-0.93).

Conclusion

Patients undergoing treatment for PJI have a 2-fold increase in in-hospital mortality for each surgical admission compared to aseptic revisions. Considering that PJI cases often have multiple admissions and that this analysis is by surgical admission, the risk of mortality will accumulate for every additional surgery. Surgeons should be cognizant of the potentially fatal outcome of PJI and the importance of infection control to reduce the risk of mortality.  相似文献

Background

Although diagnostic modalities for the detection of periprosthetic joint infection have improved, some infectious revision cases may still be diagnosed as aseptic complications.We raised the question whether patients with positive Musculoskeletal Infection Society minor infection criteria differ in their outcome parameters (revision-free survival, revision rate) when compared to patients with “true” aseptic complications. Additionally, we asked whether the indication for revision surgery (eg, loosening) might have an influence on possible outcome discrepancies.

Methods

A retrospective matched-pair analysis was performed with 98 patients who had undergone revision surgery after total joint arthroplasty. Forty-nine patients showed less than 3 positive minor criteria (PMC), whereas 49 patients without any PMC were compared regarding re-revision rate and revision-free survival. Reasons for revisions were categorized according to loosening, liner wear, implant failure, and soft-tissue complication.

Results

In the group of patients with PMC, 30.6% (n = 15) had to undergo re-revision compared to 6.12% (n = 3) in the true aseptic complication control group. The long-term implant survival in the PMC group was 69.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 47-69 months) and in the aseptic control group was 93.9% (95% CI, 82-94 months; P = .001). In patients with PMC and loosening of the implant, the long-term survival was 55.2% (95% CI survival time, 28.9-53.2 months) whereas in patients without PMC and loosening, the overall survival was 96.2% (95% CI survival time, 83.5-96 months; P = .001).

Conclusion

Our findings suggest that in the presence of prosthetic loosening, even a single positive minor criterion may have a negative impact on the outcome after total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty revision surgeries.  相似文献

Background

Periprosthetic infections caused by fungal pathogens are a rare entity, and there exist no definite guidelines according to which these infections can be successfully managed. In these situations, we wondered whether patients could be treated successfully for their fungal infections with single-stage revision.

Methods

A retrospective analysis between January 2004 and October 2014 included 11 patients (4 hips and 7 knees) with chronic fungal periprosthetic joint infection who underwent single-stage revision, including aggressive soft-tissue debridement, thorough removal of infected components and cement, pouring powdered vancomycin into the medullary cavity and direct intra-articular injection of fungus-sensitive antibiotics, and a reasonable combination of antifungal agents and antibacterial medications. Recurrence of infection and clinical outcomes were evaluated. The average follow-up was 5 years (range, 2-10 years).

Results

There were 3 failures during the study period; 1 patient died during the perioperative period because of acute heart failure on the eighth postoperative day. Of the 11 patients, 7 patients had satisfactory outcomes and required no additional surgical or medical treatment for recurrence of infection. The mean postoperative Harris hip score and Hospital for Special Surgery knee score was 77 points (67-88 points; P < .05) and 78 points (73-84 points; P < .05), respectively, at the most recent assessment.

Conclusion

Treatment of chronic fungal periprosthetic joint infection with single-stage revision can be fairly effective for achieving acceptable functional outcomes, which indicated that this may be a feasible alternative strategy in selected patients.  相似文献

Background

The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes after 2-stage revision with those following single-stage revision in patients who developed periprosthetic joint infection after primary hip arthroplasty.

Methods

Between January 2004 and January 2013, we retrospectively reviewed patients who developed periprosthetic joint infection after primary hip arthroplasty and who underwent surgery for placement of a prosthesis made of antibiotic-loaded acrylic cement (PROSTALAC). Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the stages of revision. Group A was made up of patients who had undergone 2-stage revision using PROSTALAC as an interim prosthesis. Group B was made up of patients who had been compelled to undergo single-stage revision using PROSTALAC as an alternative implant because of older age and/or medical problems. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using a visual analog scale to score pain by calculating the Harris Hip Score and by determining the patient's walking ability.

Results

There were 20 patients in group A and 19 patients in group B. The mean follow-up period after final surgery was 68.8 months (range, 24-114 months). The infection resolution rate after initial PROSTALAC placement was 92.3%, and the final resolution rate was 94.9%. The visual analog scale and Harris Hip Score of group A were significantly better than those of group B. However, no significant difference in walking ability was found between the 2 groups.

Conclusion

Although the clinical outcomes in patients with PROSTALAC implants were not as good as those who underwent 2-stage revision, PROSTALAC can be a useful alternative implant in selected patients who are debilitated because of older age and/or who have critical medical problems.  相似文献

Background

Patients with hip osteoarthritis often temporize their symptoms with multiple intra-articular steroid hip injections (IASHIs) before undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although there is recent evidence to suggest that IASHI can lead to an increased risk of future periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), the potential increase in risk of PJI after multiple IASHIs compared with single IASHI remains largely unknown. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether multiple IASHIs are associated with increased risk of PJI compared with single IASHI in THA patients.

Methods

We evaluated 2 cohorts of patients consisting of 106 patients who received 2 or more IASHI in the year before THA and a matched group of 350 patients who received one IASHI in the 12 months before THA.

Results

The single and multiply-injected patient cohorts had an infection rate of 2.0% and 6.6% (7/350 and 7/106), respectively (P = .04, odds ratio 3.30) and average follow-up of 28.9 and 24.2 months. The 2 cohorts did not differ with regard to age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologist score, presence of diabetes mellitus, or body mass index.

Conclusion

In comparison with patients with single IASHI, multiple IASHIs are associated with an increased risk of PJI significantly higher than the elevated risk reported with single injection before THA. The present study findings would be clinically useful in counseling patients who are considering temporizing their symptoms with multiple IASHIs before undergoing THA.  相似文献

Background

Two-stage exchange arthroplasty remains the preferred approach to treatment of chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The objective of the present study is to investigate the fate of antibiotic spacers placed for periprosthetic joint infection after THA and evaluate risk factors for outcomes other than reimplantation.

Methods

A national database was queried for Medicare patients who underwent removal of an infected hip prosthesis and placement of an antibiotic spacer. Patients with a study end point within 1 year postoperatively were included: (1) in-hospital mortality, (2) repeat debridement without reimplantation within 1 year, (3) resection arthroplasty, and (4) reimplantation of a hip arthroplasty. Independent patient-related risk factors for these end points were evaluated with a multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Results

A total of 7146 patients met all inclusion and exclusion criteria. Within 1 year postoperatively, 464 patients (6.5%) died in a hospital setting, 775 patients (10.8%) had a repeat debridement procedure, 404 patients (5.7%) had a resection arthroplasty, 1202 patients (16.8%) retained their spacers, and the remaining 4301 patients (60.2%) were reimplanted at an average of 124.4 ± 39.3 days. Numerous independent patient-related risk factors for these were identified.

Conclusion

At 1 year only 60% of patients undergo reimplantation. One-sixth of patients retain their spacer and approximately 10% require repeat debridement. Death occurred in at least 6% of the population. Several independent patient-related risk factors exist for repeat debridement, no reimplantation or death within 1 year following index THA removal.  相似文献

Background

Periprosthetic fracture following total hip arthroplasty is a significant problem faced by hip surgeons, and its management in elderly patients remains a considerable challenge.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed 28 Vancouver B2 and B3 periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFF) treated with revision of the femoral stems by distally locked, hydroxyapatite-coated uncemented stems (Cannulok). Patients were aged 75 years or older at the time of surgery.

Results

The mean follow-up was 44.6 months (range, 24-102). The mean postoperative Oxford hip score was 30.1 (range, 10-46). The rate of fracture union was 95.8%, and the survivorship of the stem was 100% at the end of follow-up.

Conclusion

The management of PFF in elderly is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. The use of a distally locked, hydroxyapatite-coated femoral stem is a valid option for the treatment of PFF to achieve fracture union with a low rate of revision.  相似文献

Background

The purpose of our prospective, randomized, long-term investigation is to compare the aseptic loosening rate of the femoral component of the total knee prosthesis and clinical and radiographic results of high-flexion posterior cruciate-substituting knee prosthesis or standard posterior cruciate-substituting knee prosthesis in the same patients.

Methods

There were 960 patients (mean age 71.3 years). The mean follow-up period was 13.2 years (range 10-14). The patients were assessed clinically and radiographically with rating systems of the Knee Society. Furthermore, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis questionnaire and ranges of knee motion were determined in both groups.

Results

In the high-flexion knee group, 2 knees (0.2%) had aseptic loosening of both femoral and tibial components. In the standard knee group, 2 knees (0.2%) had aseptic loosening of the femoral component only. The mean postoperative knee scores (97 vs 97 points), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis scores (19 vs 19 points), and range of knee motion (128° vs 129°) were not significantly different between the 2 groups. Two knees (0.2%) in the high-flexion knee group underwent a revision of both femoral and tibial components and 2 knees (0.2%) in the standard knee group had a revision of the femoral component only.

Conclusion

After a mean of 13.2 years of follow-up, this study did not show increased incidence of femoral component loosening in the high-flexion knee group. Furthermore, we found no significant differences between the 2 groups with regard to clinical or radiographic parameters or range of knee motion.  相似文献

Background

The incidence of total knee replacements (TKRs) in young patients is increasing. Few reports described encouraging results and acceptable survival rates. However, many concerns still persist, in particular about the high rates of infection and aseptic loosening. Aim of this article was to investigate the survival of TKRs in patients aged 45 years or younger in a registry population.

Methods

The Emilia-Romagna registry RIPO was enquired about TKRs in patients ≤45 years; 238 TKRs were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 5.4 years (range 0-15.6 years), examining the features of the patients involved, the survival rate, and the reasons for revision of the knee implants.

Results

The TKRs were generally performed in men, in private hospitals, and almost in half of the cases for other causes rather than primary osteoarthritis. The mean age was 40 years. Bicompartmental, cemented posterior-stabilized implants with fixed bearing were preferred. The survival rate was higher than 90% in the first 7 years, and then it decremented. The choice of implant did not apparently influence the survivorship. The final outcomes were acceptable, substantially in line with the previous literature about young patients. Twenty-one revisions occurred (8.8%), in particular 8 cases for aseptic loosening and 7 TKRs for infection. The rate of revision was higher than in overall population and even in some young cohorts.

Conclusion

TKRs in patients aged 45 years or younger seem a promising procedure, although the high rates of septic and aseptic loosening should be carefully evaluated. Prospective, well-designed studies are required to confirm and investigate these preliminary findings.  相似文献

Background

One proposed strategy to increase the success of irrigation and debridement with implant retention for the treatment of acute periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the use of dissolvable antibiotic-impregnated calcium sulfate beads to provide a local depot of antibiotics. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of such an approach.

Methods

Thirty-two patients with acute hematogenous (18 patients; 1 bilateral) or acute postoperative (14 patients) PJIs who underwent irrigation and debridement with implant retention and addition of antibiotic-impregnated calcium sulfate beads were retrospectively reviewed. PJI followed 27 total knee arthroplasties and 6 total hip arthroplasties. The most common infecting organisms were methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (13 of 33) and Streptococcus (9 of 33). The primary outcome parameter was recurrence of infection according to the Musculoskeletal Infection Society criteria. Patients were followed up for a minimum of 3 months or until failure.

Results

At a mean of 12.7 months (range, 3-30 months), 16 of the 33 patients failed (48%). Acute hematogenous and acute postoperative PJI had similar failure rates at 47% and 50%, respectively (P = .88). Seven failures required a 2-stage exchange, while 8 patients were treated with chronic antibiotic suppression, being unwilling or unable to undergo further surgical intervention.

Conclusion

The addition of antibiotic-impregnated calcium sulfate beads does not appear to improve outcomes of irrigation and debridement with implant retention in the setting of acute hematogenous or acute postoperative PJI. Given the short follow-up in this report, this represents a best-case scenario and the overall failure rate may be higher with further follow-up.  相似文献

Background

Failed total hip arthroplasty caused by mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC) has serious consequences such as adverse local tissue reaction. Revision is currently indicated for significant hip pain, stiffness, and dysfunction; hip instability; progressive bone loss; and soft tissue destruction. Outcomes of this revision surgery are not yet completely understood.

Methods

We examined the surgical outcomes at a minimum of 6 months (average, 25; range, 7-68 months) in a cohort of 27 consecutive patients who underwent revision total hip arthroplasty for MACC associated with a single implant vendor and taper type.

Results

Major orthopedic complications occurred in 7 of 27 patients (25.9%), each after the original revision surgery. Five additional major complications occurred in subsequent surgeries. Postoperative hip dislocation occurred in 6 of 27 (22.2%), deep infection occurred in 3 of 27 (11.1%), and aseptic acetabular loosening, seroma requiring irrigation and debridement, pulmonary embolism, periprosthetic fracture, and reintubation each occurred in 1 of 27 (3.7%). Harris hip scores improved significantly with surgery (P = .0002), but overall, scores were lower for those who had major complications (70.9 vs 89.2), and only 20 of 27 patients (74.1%) had good or excellent outcomes.

Conclusion

Symptomatic MACC is a potentially devastating diagnosis, because of decreased soft tissue and bone viability associated with adverse local tissue reaction. This leads to a high early major complication rate.  相似文献

Background

The direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) is typically performed in the supine position using a specially designed operating room table, which makes this approach more accessible to orthopedic surgeons. We attempted to perform this procedure in the lateral decubitus position on an ordinary operation table to avoid dependence on a special operating room table. There is an obvious absence of literature regarding this subject.

Methods

A total of 248 patients (295 hips) were recruited for primary THAs from July 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014. In total, 126 hips (42.7%) underwent THAs using the DAA in the lateral decubitus position. The technical feasibility and early results were evaluated.

Results

The orientation of the acetabular component was 16.5° ± 4.9° anteversion and 43.3° ± 3.5° abduction. Intraoperative proximal femoral fracture occurred in one hip. The superficial wound complications occurred in 2 hips and the hematoma in one hip while in hospital. The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury was noted in 43 hips. The early dislocation occurred in 2 hips. Heterotopic ossification was Brooker class I in 5 hips and class II in 1 hip. No aseptic loosening, postoperative periprosthetic fracture, and deep infection occurred in our series.

Conclusion

The DAA for THA in the lateral decubitus position may be a valuable alternative if the DAA in the supine position is difficult to implement owing to absence of a special operating room table. This technique also seems to provide satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes with an acceptable complication in our early follow-up.  相似文献

Background

The ideal fixation for modern tibial components in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial with uncertainty on whether cementless implants can yield equivalent outcomes to cemented fixation in early follow-up.

Methods

A series of 70 consecutive cases with reverse hybrid cementless fixation were matched to 70 cemented cases from 2008 to 2015 based on implant design and patient demographics.

Results

Cementless TKA demonstrated greater aseptic loosening (7 vs 0, P = .013) and revision surgery (10 vs 0, P = .001) than cemented fixation within 5 years of follow-up, but with no clinically significant differences in outcome scores.

Conclusion

It remains unclear whether early aseptic loosening in cementless TKA can be reduced with enhanced adjunct fixation and what proportion of early failure justifies the potential lifelong fixation through biologic ingrowth of cementless tibial components.  相似文献

Background

Two-stage exchange arthroplasty remains the preferred method for treating a chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in North America. However, infection recurrence may occur. Previously, recurrent infections have been classified as persistent (same isolated pathogen) or new (different pathogen identified). We sought to determine (1) recurrence rates among patients with chronic hip and knee PJI, treated with 2-stage exchange arthroplasty; (2) risk factors for infection recurrence; and (3) risk factors for developing persistent vs new infection.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed clinical characteristics of patients with chronic hip and knee PJI, treated with 2-stage revision between January 1998 and March 2014. Minimum follow-up was 24 months. Two multivariate logistic regression models were constructed to determine independent predictors for infection recurrence and persistence.

Results

In total, 548 patients were identified (283 men, 265 women). Forty-eight had a recurrent infection (8.76%). Men had 54.8% lower odds of PJI recurrence than women (odds ratio [OR] = 0.452; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.235-0.869). Patients with heart disease had 109% higher odds of infection recurrence than patients without heart disease (OR = 2.09; 95% CI, 1.097-3.081). The risk of infection recurrence was 119% higher in patients with psychiatric disorders than in patients without psychiatric disorders (OR = 2.19; 95% CI, 1.011-4.761). Patients with recurrent knee PJI had 84.6% lower odds of persistent infection (OR = 0.154; 95% CI, 0.034-0.696) compared to hip PJI. Patients with heart disease had 5-fold increased odds for persistent PJI (OR = 5.068; 95% CI, 1.38-22.56).

Conclusion

Female gender, heart disease, and psychiatric disorders increase the risk of hip and knee PJI recurrence. Patients with PJI of the hip and with heart disease are at higher risk of infection persistence.  相似文献

Background

The use of porous tantalum for the acetabular component in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has demonstrated excellent short-term and midterm results. However, long-term data are scarce. The purpose of this prospective study is to report the long-term clinical and radiologic outcome following use of an uncemented porous tantalum acetabular component in primary THA with a minimum follow-up of 17.5 years, in a previously studied cohort of patients.

Methods

We prospectively followed 128 consecutive primary THAs in 140 patients, between November 1997 and June 1999. A press-fit porous tantalum monoblock acetabular component was used in all cases. All patients were followed clinically and radiographically for a mean of 18.1 years (range, 17.5-19 years).

Results

Mean age of patients at the time of operation was 60.4 years. Harris hip score, Oxford hip score, and range of motion were dramatically improved in all cases (P < .001). At last follow-up, all cups were radiographically stable with no evidence of migration, gross polyethylene wear, progressive radiolucencies, osteolytic lesions, or acetabular fractures. The survivorship with reoperation for any reason as end point was 92.8% and the survivorship for aseptic loosening as an end point was 100%.

Conclusion

The porous tantalum monoblock cup in primary THA demonstrated excellent clinical and radiographic outcomes with no failures because of aseptic loosening at a mean follow-up of 18.1 years.  相似文献

Background

Prosthetic joint infections (PJI) are still a major complication of hip and knee arthroplasties. Identification of the causative pathogens and knowledge of their antibiotic susceptibilities are essential for the management of these infections. The main purpose of the study was to identify and compare the causative bacteria of prosthetic knee and hip joint infections in a reference Italian orthopedic center and to characterize antibiotic resistance profiles of bacteria involved.

Methods

Data from 429 patients with diagnosis of PJI were collected from January 2013 to June 2015: 229 presented a hip and 200 a knee prosthesis infection. Prostheses and periprosthetic tissues were treated with dithiothreitol before plating onto different media and broths. Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were carried out by VITEK2 Compact (bioMerieux).

Results

There was not a substantial difference in the etiology of hip and knee PJI: staphylococci were the most frequently isolated bacteria in both groups, followed by Enterobacteriaceae and Propionibacterium acnes. Staphylococci showed a high rate of methicillin resistance (144 of 341) and a worrying frequency of isolates were resistant to teicoplanin (9%). Only 8.3% of Enterobacteriaceae produced extended-spectrum beta-lactamases, whereas the rate of carbapenemase-producing bacteria was not significant.

Conclusion

We observed similar etiology of hip and knee PJIs. Nevertheless, bacteria isolated from knee showed higher resistance rates to glycopeptides and fluoroquinolones when compared with those isolated from the hip. The reason for this difference remains to be elucidated in future studies.  相似文献

Background

Prolonged retention of an antibiotic spacer is occasionally chosen during treatment of periprosthetic joint infections after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of our study was to evaluate the outcome of extended spacer retention.

Methods

We reviewed 1106 cases of periprosthetic joint infection after THA (n = 308) and TKA (n = 798) and identified 17 (5.5%) retained hip and 34 (4.3%) retained knee spacers. Most patients (35 of 51, 69%) underwent spacer retention because they were medically unfit for further surgery. The remaining patients (16 of 51, 31%) had acceptable function and forewent further surgery. Competing risk analyses, with death as the competing risk, determined the cumulative incidence of reinfection and spacer revision. Radiographic analysis and clinical outcomes were analyzed.

Results

The 2-year cumulative incidence for reinfection was 7% for retained hip and 13% for retained knee spacers. The cumulative incidence for all-cause spacer revision was 28% at 4 years for hips and 21% at 2 years for knees. The most common complications were implant migration and femoral spacer subsidence in the hip cohort, and supracondylar femur fractures and spacer dislocations in the knee cohort. The cumulative incidence for radiographic signs of mechanical failure was 72% and 87% at late follow-up for the hip and knee groups, respectively. The latest Harris Hip Score and Knee Society Score were 62 and 63, respectively.

Conclusion

Antibiotic spacer retention is a rare event in the course of planned 2-stage treatment of infected THA or TKA. Failure secondary to recurrent infection is uncommon; however, failure for mechanical reasons is frequent and clinical outcomes are relatively poor.  相似文献

Background

Two-stage revision remains the most common approach to periprosthetic joint infection of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the United States. The postoperative risks associated with removal of an infected prosthesis and placement of a spacer have not been thoroughly studied.

Methods

Patients who underwent THA implant removal and spacer placement for infection were identified in a large administrative database. Morbidity and mortality rates were assessed for the 90-day postoperative period and readmission rates were assessed at 30 days postoperatively. These outcomes were then compared with those after coronary artery bypass grafting, carotid endarterectomy, prostatectomy, pancreatoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure), and kidney transplant.

Results

Implant removal and spacer placement for THA periprosthetic joint infection (n = 10,386) had a 30-day readmission rate of 11.1% and 90-day mortality rate of 2.6%. Major complications were seen in 15.3% patients. Postoperative morbidity was often higher in these patients when compared with other procedures studied. Ninety-day mortality rates were significantly higher compared with carotid endarterectomy, prostatectomy, and kidney transplant (odds ratio [ORs] between 2.1 and 12.5; P < .0001). Readmission rates at 30 days were significantly higher than all other groups including coronary artery bypass grafting and Whipple (ORs between 1.4 and 8.2; P < .0001).

Conclusion

Removal of an infected THA with spacer placement is a high-risk surgery. This large study that includes over 10,000 patients helps quantify the risks of readmission, morbidity, and mortality. The rates of adverse outcomes are higher than those for many nonorthopedic operations typically considered to be major surgery.  相似文献
