Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of
the most feared and challenging complications following total knee arthroplasty.
We provide a detailed description of our current understanding regarding
the management of PJI of the knee, including diagnostic aids,
pre-operative planning, surgical treatment, and outcome. Cite this article:
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. 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.Aims
