Objectives. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to determine
the mid- to long-term clinical outcomes for a medial-pivot total
knee replacement (TKR) system. The objectives were to synthesise
available survivorship, Knee Society Scores (KSS), and reasons for
revision for this system. Methods. A systematic search was conducted of two online databases to
identify sources of survivorship, KSS, and reasons for revision.
Survivorship results were compared with values in the National Joint
Registry of England, Wales, and Northern Ireland (NJR). Results. A total of eight studies that included data for 1146 TKRs performed
in six countries satisfied the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Pooled
component survivorship estimates were 99.2% (95% CI, 97.7 to 99.7)
and 97.6% (95% CI, 95.8 to 98.6) at five and eight years, respectively.
Survivorship was similar or better when compared with rates reported
for all cemented TKRs combined in the NJR and was significantly
better than some insert types at mid-term intervals. The weighted
mean post-operative KSS was 87.9 (73.2 to 94.2), in the excellent
range. Similar cumulative revision rates and KSS were reported at
centres in the United States, Europe, and
