Introduction

Metaphyseal fixation during revision total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) is important, but potentially challenging with historical cone designs. Material and manufacturing innovations have improved the size and shape of cones available, and simplified requisite bone preparation. In a very large series, we assessed implant survivorship, radiographic results, and clinical outcomes of new porous 3-D printed titanium metaphyseal cones featuring a reamer-based system.

Methods

We reviewed 142 revision TKAs using 202 cones (134 tibial and 68 femoral) from 2015 to 2016. Sixty cases involved tibial and femoral cones. Most cones (149 of 202; 74%) were used for Type 2B or 3 bone loss. Mean age was 66 years, with 54 % females. Mean BMI was 34 kg/m2. Patients had a mean of 2.4 prior surgeries and 48% had a history of periprosthetic infection. Mean follow-up was 2 years.
