Re-revision knee replacement (RR-KR) is complex surgery, with a significant impact on individual patients and health resource use. The aim of this study was to investigate early patient-relevant outcomes following RR-KR. 206 patients (250 knees) undergoing RR-KR were recruited from a major revision centre between 2015–2018. Patient-relevant outcomes assessed were: implant survivorship, complications (90-days), joint function and quality of life (final follow-up). Risk factors for further revision surgery at 1 year were investigated using multiple logistic regression.Abstract
Introduction
Methodology:
To present our experience of using a combination of intra-articular
osteotomy and external fixation to treat different deformities of
the knee. A total of six patients with a mean age of 26.5 years (15 to
50) with an abnormal hemi-joint line convergence angle (HJLCA) and
mechanical axis deviation (MAD) were included. Elevation of a tibial
hemiplateau or femoral condylar advancement was performed and limb
lengthening with correction of residual deformity using a circular
or monolateral Ilizarov frame.Aims
