Abstract

Introduction

Choosing a hinged implant in the revision knee arthroplasty (rTKA) setting is challenging and limited data on implant performance exists. We present the survivorship and reason for failure in rTKA performed at our institution using the LINK hinge prosthesis, predominantly the cemented modular Endo-Model prosthesis.

Methodology

260 consecutive revision knee cases performed between 2012 and 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. Mean follow up was 27 months (range 0 to 107). Survivorship was analysed in Stata using a Log Rank test to compare performance in patients stratified according to age (≥80 years old (76 cases), 70–79 years (104 cases) and ≤70 years (80 cases).
