Introduction. Hip resurfacing (HRA) designer centres have reported survivorships between 88.5–96% at 12 years. Arthroplasty Registries (AR) reported less favourable results especially in females gender and small sizes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum 10-year survival and outcome of the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) from an independent specialist centre. Methods. Since 1998, 1967 BHRs have been implanted in our centre by a single hip resurfacing specialist. The first 249 BHR, implanted between 1999 and 2001 in 232 patients (17 bilateral) were included in this study. The majority of the patients were male (163; 69%). The mean age at surgery was 50.6 years (range: 17–76), with primary OA as most common indication (201; 81%), followed by avascular necrosis (23; 9.2%) and hip dysplasia (11; 4.4%). Mean follow up was 10.2 years (range: 0.1 (revision) to 13.1). Implant survival was established with revision as the end point. Harris Hip Scores (HHS), radiographs and metal ion levels were assessed in all patients. Sub-analysis was performed by gender, diagnosis and femoral component size (Small: <50 mm; Large: ≥50 mm). Results. Of the 232 patients, 15 were deceased (4 bilateral BHR), 16 lost to follow-up and 9 revised. 205 BHR were evaluated at minimum 10 years postoperatively. Failure modes included 2 component malpositioning, 2 loose femoral heads, 1 fracture, 1 metal sensitivity, 2 impingement and 1 with high metal ions. The overall survival was 95.1% (95% CI: 93.6–96.6) at 12.8 years. The mean HHS was 97.8 (range: 65–100). Survivorship in men was 98.6% (95%CI: 97.4–99.8%) at 13 years. Survivorship in women was inferior to men (log rank = 0.003): 87.9% (95%CI: 84.3–91.5%) at 12 years. There was no difference in HHS between genders in the non-revised cases (p = 0.46). There was no difference in survivorship with different pre-operative diagnosis (log-rank = 0.83) but a significant difference in 12-year survivorship between Small (90.1%) and Large components (97.2%) (log rank = 0.01). After adjusting for head size, the difference in survival between males and females was no longer significant (log-rank = 0.125). The median ion levels were Cr:2.0μg/l; Co:1.0μg/l. In 24 patients the ion levels were undetectable. Four patients (1.9%) had ions above the upper acceptable limits of Cr:4.6μg/l;Co:4.0μg/l for unilateral or Cr:7.4μg/l;Co:5.0μg/l for bilateral HRA. In 67 patients with consecutive ion measurements, levels decreased significantly with time with a mean decrease of 0.97μg/l for Cr and 0.60μg/l for Co. Discussion. This study reports the more than 10-year survival of BHR and reflects an experienced specialist's practice, including his learning curve of the procedure. The overall 12.8-year survival was superior to registry reported figures of THA amongst young patients and corresponded well with reports from designer centres. Survivorship and clinical outcome were excellent in men. In women survivorship was significantly inferior and related to smaller component sizes, but the >10-year clinical outcome in non-revised cases was excellent. In well-functioning BHR, the metal ions decrease significantly with time. The results of this study support the use of HRA with a good design

Aim: To assess the survival rate of implants and the effect of UKR on knee pain, function, stiffness and quality of life in a prospective study.

Methods: All of the knee replacements were performed using minimally invasive techniques. SF36 and WOMAC were evaluated pre-operatively and at six-monthly intervals post-operatively.

Results: There were 506 knees. The mean post-operative evaluation time was two years and six months and the maximum time was three years and nine months. The status of all knees was established. There were nine failures as determined by the need for revision procedures. Six patients died with their implants functioning.

Survival analysis: 99% at 12 months 98% at 24 months 98% at 36 months.

The scores on SF36 and WOMAC were adjusted to the Australian Population Norm. The WOMAC score showed an increase in function, and a decrease in the pain and stiffness scores. The physical and mental component summaries of the SF-36 both indicated an increased quality of life post-operatively. Implant failure was due to loosening of tibial and femoral components and progression of arthritic changes in the lateral compartments.

Conclusion: The results from the health assessment forms indicated a high patient satisfaction with the operation and a sustained improvement in quality of life, flexibility and function.

Population-based studies from the United States have reported that sarcoma patients living in rural areas or belonging to lower socioeconomic classes experience worse overall survival; however, the evidence is not clear for universal healthcare systems where financial resources should theoretically not affect access to standard of care. The purpose of this study was to determine the survival outcomes of soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) patients treated in Ontario, Canada over 23 years and determine if the patient's geographic location or income quintile are associated with survival. We performed a population-based cohort study using linked administrative databases of patients diagnosed with STS between 1993 – 2015. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate 2, 5, 10, 15 and 20-year survival stratified by age, stage and location of tumor. We estimated survival outcomes based on the patient's geographic location and income quintile. The Log-Rank test was used to detect significant differences between groups. If groups were significantly different, a Cox proportional hazards model was used to test for interaction effects with other patient variables. We identified 8,896 patients with biopsy-confirmed STS during the 23-year study period. Overall survival following STS diagnosis was 70% at 2 years, 59% at 5 years, 50% at 10 years, 43% at 15 years, and 38% at 20 years. Living in a rural location (p=0.0028) and belonging to the lowest income quintile (p<0.0001) were independently associated with lower overall survival following STS diagnosis. These findings were robust to tests of interaction with each other, age, gender, location of tumor and stage of disease. This population-based cohort study of 8,896 STS patients treated in Ontario, Canada over 23 years reveals that patients living in a rural area and belonging to the lowest income quintile are at risk for decreased survival following STS diagnosis. We extend previous STS survival reporting by providing 15 and 20-year survival outcomes stratified by age, stage, and tumor location

Abstract. Background. To determine the long-term survival outcomes of Copeland Resurfacing Hemiarthroplasty (CRHA) performed by a single surgeon series. Methods. A retrospective cohort study which looked at patients who underwent CRHA over 6 years. Re-operations including revisions with component exchange taking place in our hospital and at local centres were reviewed. Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) was used to assess their functional outcomes pre- and post-CRHA. Results. 80 CRHAs were performed in 72 patients between 2007 and 2013 with a mean follow-up of 6.5 years. The mean follow-up was 79 months (50–122). The primary indication for CRHA was osteoarthritis (76.3%), cuff tear arthropathy (16.3%), rheumatoid arthritis (5%) and post-trauma (1.3%). The mean pre-operative OSS was 16, which doubled following CRHA surgery. Fifteen patients underwent revision surgery due to ongoing glenoid pain with a mean revision time following primary CRHA being 49 months. Projected survival at the endpoints 5,7 and 10 years were 83, 81 and 79% respectively. Conclusion. This study provides us with a much longer average follow-up period in comparison to many other studies published. Previous studies, support resurfacing as a useful implant in reducing pain and improving function in the short-term; but this series demonstrates over the medium-term a relatively high revision rate of about 20% in comparison with other arthroplasty options, despite the revision rate seeming to plateau from the 5-year mark onwards

Aims. The conversion of previous hip fracture surgery to total hip arthroplasty (CTHA) can be surgically challenging with unpredictable outcomes; reported complication rates vary significantly. This study aimed to establish the medium-term survival and outcomes of CTHA performed following a previous hip fracture surgery. Methods. All CTHAs performed at our tertiary orthopaedic institution between January 2008 and January 2020 following previous ipsilateral hip fracture surgery were included. Patients were followed up clinically using Oxford Hip Scores (OHS), and radiologically until death or revision surgery. Postoperative complications, radiological implant failure, and indications for revision surgery were reviewed. Results. A total of 166 patients (167 hips) were included in the study, with a mean age of 71 years (42 to 99). Of these, 113 patients (67.7%) were female. CTHA followed cannulated screw fixation in 75 cases, hemiarthroplasty in 18, dynamic hip screw fixation in 47, and cephalomedullary nail in 27 cases. Patients were followed up for a mean of four years (0.1 to 9.3). During the follow-up period, 32 patients (19.2%) died. Overall, 14 patients (8.4%) suffered a complication of surgery, with intraoperative fractures (4.2%) and dislocations (3.6%) predominating. The survival probability was 96% at 9.53 years in the cemented group and 88% at 9.42 years in the uncemented group (p = 0.317). The median OHS improved from 13 (IQR 7.75 to 21.25) preoperatively to 39 (IQR 31 to 45) postoperatively in the uncemented group, and from 14 (IQR 10.5 to 22) to 38 (IQR 27 to 45) in the cemented group. Conclusion. This study highlights that CTHA from hip fracture surgery is associated with higher complication rates than conventional THA, but good medium-term results can be achieved. Their classification within the NJR requires review, acknowledging the increased potential for complications. Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2025;6(2):195–205

Robotic assistance in knee arthroplasty has become increasingly popular due to improved accuracy of prosthetic implantation. However, literature on the mid-term outcomes is limited especially that of hand-held robotic-assisted devices. We present one of the longest follow-up series to date using this novel technology and discuss the learning curve for introducing robotic technology into our practice. The purpose of this single-surgeon study is to evaluate the survival, patient-reported outcomes and learning curve for handheld boundary-controlled robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasties (HBRUKAs) at our hospital. This retrospective study evaluates 100 cases (94 Medial, 6 Lateral) performed by a single surgeon between October 2012 and July 2018. 52% were males, mean age was 64.5y (range 47.3y-85.2y) and mean BMI was 31.3 (range 21.8–43). Both inlay (40%) and onlay (60%) designs were implanted. Patients were followed up routinely at 1 and 5 years with Oxford Knee Scores (OKS) recorded. The learning curve was determined by tourniquet times. At a mean follow-up of 4.3 years (range 1.6y–7.3y), survivorship was 97%. There were three revisions: One case of aseptic loosening (1.5y), one case of deep-infection (3.8y) and one case of contralateral compartment osteoarthritis progression (5y). Mean 5-year OKS was 39.8. A 14.3% reduction in mean tourniquet times between the first 25 cases (105.5minutes) and subsequent cases (90.4minutes) was seen. This single-surgeon study showed good survivorship and patient-reported outcomes for HBRUKAs at our hospital. A learning curve of approximately 25 cases was shown, with significant decreases in tourniquet times with respect to increased surgeon experience

Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) in the presence of femoral defects can be technically challenging. Reconstruction with long stems is widely accepted as the standard. However long stems can be difficult to insert and can compromise distal bone stock for future revisions. The aims of this study were to identify whether there was a difference in survival and outcomes following rTHA using a long versus standard or short femoral stem. A comprehensive systematic review was performed according to PRISMA guidelines using the MEDLINE, EMBASE, Chochrane Library and Web of Science databases. Inclusion criteria were (i) adult patients >18 years; (ii) randomised controlled trials, joint registry, or cohort studies; (iii) single or staged rTHA for Paprosky 1–3B femoral defects. Exclusion criteria were (i) mixed reporting without subgroup analysis for revision stem length; (ii) ex-vivo studies. Screening for eligibility and assessment of studies was performed by the authors. Out of 341 records, 9 studies met criteria for analysis (including 1 study utilising joint registry data and 1 randomised controlled trial). Across studies there were 3102 rTHAs performed in 2982 patients with a mean age of 67.4 years and a male: female ratio of 0.93. Revision prostheses were long-stemmed in 1727 cases and short or standard in 1375 cases with a mean follow up of 5 years (range, 0-15 years). On subgroup analysis the use of a long cemented stem compared to a long cementless prosthesis was associated with fewer complications and periprosthetic fracture in older patients. Survivorship was 95% with short stems compared to 84% with long stems at 5 years. Moderate quality evidence suggests that in rTHA with Paprosky type 1-3B femoral defects, the use of a short or standard stem can achieve comparable outcomes to long stems with fewer significant complications and revisions. Using a shorter stem may yield a more straightforward surgical technique and can preserve distal bone stock for future revision

The aim of this study was to determine the long term 20 year survival and outcomes of high tibial osteotomy (HTO). 100 consecutive subjects underwent HTO under the care of a single surgeon between 2000 and 2002, consented to participation in a prospective study and completed preoperative WOMAC scores. Subjects were reviewed at 10 years, and again at a minimum of 20 years after surgery. PROMS included further surgery, WOMAC scores, Oxford Knee Score (OHS), KOOS, and EQ-5D, and satisfaction with surgery. 20 year survival was assessed with Kaplan-Meir analysis, and failure defined as proceeding to subsequent knee arthroplasty. The mean age at HTO was 50 years (range 26-66), and 72% were males. The 5, 10, and 20 year survival of the HTO was 88%, 76%, 43% respectively. On multiple regression analysis HTO failure was associated with poor preoperative WOMAC score of 45 or less (HR 3.2, 95% CI 1.7-6.0, p=0.001), age at surgery of 55 or more (HR 2.3, 95% CI 1.3-4.0, p=0.004), and obesity (HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.4, p=0.023). In patients who met all criteria of preoperative WOMAC score of 45 or less, age <55 years and body mass index of <30 HTO survival was 100%, 94%, and 59% at 5, 10 and 20 years respectively. Of those who had not proceeded to TKA the mean Oxford Score was 40, KOOS Pain score was 91 and KOOS function score was 97. 97% reported they were satisfied with the surgery and 88% would have the same surgery again under the same circumstances. At 20 years after HTO 43% had not proceeded to knee arthroplasty, and were continuing to demonstrate high subjective scores and satisfaction with surgery. HTO survival was higher in those under 55 years, with BMI <30 and baseline WOMAC score of >45 at 59% HTO survival over 20 years. HTO may be considered a viable procedure to delay premature knee arthroplasty in carefully selected subjects

Background. Lateral Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA) is a recognised treatment option in the management of lateral Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Whilst there is extensive evidence on the indications and contraindcations in Medial UKA there is limited evidence on this topic in Lateral UKA. The aim of this study was to assess our experience of mobile lateral UKR and to look specifically at the effect of Contraindications on the outcome. Method. A total of 325 consecutive domed lateral UKAs undertaken for the recommended indications were included, and their functional and survival outcomes were assessed. The effects of age, weight, activity, and presence of full- thickness erosions of cartilage in the patellofemoral joint on outcome were evaluated. Results. Median follow- up was seven years (3 to 14), and mean age at surgery was 65 years (39 to 90). Median Oxford Knee Score (OKS) was 43 (interquartile range (IQR) 37 to 47), with 260 (80%) achieving a good or excellent score (OKS > 34). Revisions occurred in 34 (10%). In total, 14 (4%) were for dislocation, of which 12 had no recurrence following insertion of a new bearing. In all, 12 (4%) were revised for medial osteoarthritis (OA). Ten- year survival was 85% (95% confidence interval (CI) 79 to 90, at risk 72). Age, weight, activity, and patellofemoral erosions did not have a significant effect on the clinical outcome or survival. Conclusion. Mobile (domed) lateral UKA provides a good alternative to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the management of lateral compartment OA. Although dislocation is relatively easy to treat successfully, the dislocation rate of 4% is high. Younger age, heavier weight, high activity, and patellofemoral erosions did not detrimentally affect outcome, so should not be considered contraindications

Abstract. Background/Objectives. The incidence of reverse total shoulder replacement (rTSR) implantation is increasing globally, but apprehension exists regarding complications and associated challenges. We retrospectively analysed the senior author's series of rTSR from a tertiary centre using the VAIOS shoulder system, a modular 4th generation implant. We hypothesised that the revision rTSR cohort would have less favourable outcomes and more complications. Methods. 114 patients underwent rTSR with the VAIOS system, over 7 years. The primary outcome was implant survival. Secondary outcomes were Oxford shoulder scores (OSS), radiographic analysis (scapular notching, tuberosity osteolysis, and periprosthetic radiolucent lines) and complications. Results. There were 55 Primary rTSR, 31 Revision rTSR and 28 Trauma rTSR. Implant survival: Primary rTSR- 0 revisions, average 3.35-year follow-up. Revision rTSR-1 revision (4.17%), average 3.52-year follow-up. Trauma rTSR- 1 revision (3.57%), average 4.56-year follow-up OSS: Average OSS improved from 15.39 to 33.8 (Primary rTSR) and from 15.11 to 29.1 (Revision rTSR). Average post-operative OSS for the Trauma rTSR was 31.4 Radiological analysis and complications: Low incidence of scapular notching One hairline fracture below the tip of stem, noted incidentally, which required no treatment. One periprosthetic fracture after alcohol related fall. Treated non-surgically One joint infection requiring two-stage revision to rTSR. One dislocation noted at 2 year follow up. This patient had undergone nerve grafting within 6 months of rTSR for axillary nerve injury sustained during the original fracture dislocation. One acromial fracture with tibial and distal humeral fracture after a fall. Conclusions. The 4th generation modular VAIOS implant is a reliable option for various indications. The revision rTSR cohort had favourable outcomes with low complication rates. In this series, early-to-medium term results suggest lower revision rates and good functional outcomes when compared to published reports. We plan to monitor long-term implant survivorship and patient reported outcomes. Declaration of Interest. (a) fully declare any financial or other potential conflict of interest

Aims

In 2015, we published the results of our ceramic-on-metal (CoM) total hip arthroplasties (THAs) performed between October 2007 and July 2009 with a mean follow-up of 34 months (23 to 45) and a revision rate of 3.1%. The aim of this paper is to present the longer-term outcomes.

Aims. Revision hip arthroplasty for femoral stem loosening remains challenging due to significant bone loss and deformities requiring specialized revision stems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes, and survival, of a consecutive series of femoral revisions performed using a primary cementless stem with tapered geometry and rectangular cross-section at medium-term follow-up. Methods. We retrospectively evaluated 113 patients (115 hips) with intraoperative Paprosky type I (n = 86) or II (n = 29) defects, who underwent femoral revision with Alloclassic Zweymüller SL stem for one-stage aseptic revision or two-stage septic revision from January 2011 to December 2020. The mean follow-up was 77.9 months (SD 33.8). Nine patients were lost to follow-up (deceased or not available), leaving 104 patients (106 hips) for the clinical and radiological analysis. Clinical assessment was performed with Harris Hip Score (HHS) and visual analogue scale (VAS) before surgery and at final follow-up. Results. There were 60 males and 53 females with a mean age at time of surgery of 71.2 years (SD 12.6). The mean HHS and VAS significantly improved at final follow-up, from 33.7 (SD 13.0) and 5.8 (SD 1.8) preoperatively to 66.4 (SD 16.8) and 2.1 (SD 1.8) postoperatively, respectively (p = 0.001 and p = 0.001). Overall, 28 patients (25%) showed non-progressive radiolucent lines at the level of proximal femur without radiological or clinical signs of loosening. One patient had a recurrence of periprosthetic joint infection after a two-stage procedure requiring re-revision surgery. One patient underwent exchange of modular components for recurrent dislocation, and another case of dislocation was treated conservatively. The survival with aseptic loosening as endpoint was 100%, while stem revision for any reason was 99.1% at up to 152 months’ follow-up. Conclusion. Alloclassic Zweymüller SL primary stem showed favourable medium-term results and survival for revision total hip arthroplasty in Paprosky type I and II defects.

Aims. The aims of this retrospective study were to determine the incidence of extra-articular deformities (EADs), and determine their effect on postoperative alignment in knees undergoing mobile-bearing, medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). Patients and Methods. Limb mechanical alignment (hip-knee-ankle angle), coronal bowing of the femoral shaft and proximal tibia vara or medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) were measured on standing, full-length hip-to-ankle radiographs of 162 patients who underwent 200 mobile-bearing, medial UKAs. Results. Incidence of EAD was 7.5% for coronal femoral bowing of >5°, 67% for proximal tibia vara of >3° (MPTA<87°) and 24.5% for proximal tibia vara of >6° (MPTA<84°). Mean postoperative HKA angle achieved in knees with femoral bowing ≤5° was significantly greater when compared to knees with femoral bowing >5° (p=0.04); in knees with proximal tibia vara ≤3° was significantly greater when compared to knees with proximal tibia vara >3° (p=0.0001) and when compared to knees with proximal tibia vara >6° (p=0.0001). Conclusion. Extra-articular deformities are frequently seen in patients undergoing mobile-bearing medial UKAs, especially in knees with varus deformity>10°. Presence of an EAD significantly affects postoperative mechanical limb alignment achieved when compared to limbs without EAD and may increase the risk of limbs being placed in varus>3° postoperatively. Clinical Relevance. Since the presence of an EAD, especially in knees with varus deformity>10°, may increase the risk of limbs being placed in varus>3° postoperatively and may affect long-term clinical and implant survival outcomes, UKR in such knees should be performed with caution

Aims

Understanding of open fracture management is skewed due to reliance on small-number lower limb, specialist unit reports and large, unfocused registry data collections. To address this, we carried out the Open Fracture Patient Evaluation Nationwide (OPEN) study, and report the demographic details and the initial steps of care for patients admitted with open fractures in the UK.

Aims. The aim of this to study was to compare the previously unreported long-term survival outcome of the Oxford medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) performed by trainee surgeons and consultants. . Patients and Methods. We therefore identified a previously unreported cohort of 1084 knees in 947 patients who had a UKA inserted for anteromedial knee arthritis by consultants and surgeons in training, at a tertiary arthroplasty centre and performed survival analysis on the group with revision as the endpoint. Results. The ten-year cumulative survival rate for revision or exchange of any part of the prosthetic components was 93.2% (95% confidence interval (CI) 86.1 to 100, number at risk 45). Consultant surgeons had a nine-year cumulative survival rate of 93.9% (95% CI 90.2 to 97.6, number at risk 16). Trainee surgeons had a cumulative nine-year survival rate of 93.0% (95% CI 90.3 to 95.7, number at risk 35). Although there was no differences in implant survival between consultants and trainees (p = 0.30), there was a difference in failure pattern whereby all re-operations performed for bearing dislocation (n = 7), occurred in the trainee group. This accounted for 0.6% of the entire cohort and 15% of the re-operations. . Conclusion. This is the largest single series of the Oxford UKA ever reported and demonstrates that good results can be achieved by a heterogeneous group of surgeons, including trainees, if performed within a high-volume centre with considerable experience with the procedure.

Aims

Socioeconomic and racial disparities have been recognized as impacting the care of patients with cancer, however there are a lack of data examining the impact of these disparities on patients with bone sarcoma. The purpose of this study was to examine socioeconomic and racial disparities that impact the oncological outcomes of patients with bone sarcoma.

Aims

This systematic review aims to compare the precision of component positioning, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), complications, survivorship, cost-effectiveness, and learning curves of MAKO robotic arm-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (RAUKA) with manual medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (mUKA).

Background. Method of fixation in THA is a contentious issue, with proponents of either technique citing improved implant survival and outcomes. Current comparisons rely on insufficiently powered studies with short-term follow up or larger poorly controlled registry studies. Patient factors are considered a key variable contributing to the risk of implant failure. One way to overcome this confounder is to compare the survival of cementless and cemented THAs patients who have undergone bilateral THAs with cemented hip on one side and cementless hip on the other. We compared stem survival of patients who have bilateral THA with one cemented stem in one hip and a cementless stem in the contralateral hip in the National Joint Registry. Methods. UK National Joint Registry is the largest registry of its kind in the world. This study included 2934 patients with 5868 THAs who underwent bilateral THAs s between 2003 and 2016. These patients had undergone bilateral sequential THAs within 3 years of each other: cemented THA on one side and cementless on the other, Patients had identical pre-operative American Society of Anaesthesiologists group for both THAs and same indication for surgery. Implant survival was compared using Cox regression with an endpoint of stem revision. Results. Ten-year all-cause survival of cementless stems was lower than for cemented stems (p<0.001), as was survival to aseptic loosening revision (p<0.001). Similar trends were seen across all age groups including young and old patients. There was a non-significant trend towards superiority of cemented stems in survival until periprosthetic fracture, dislocation and infection. Conclusion. Comparison of cementless with cemented stems within patients is a novel method to compare the outcomes of orthopaedic implants. Survival was better for cemented stems including for younger patients and aseptic loosening
