The aim of this study was to examine the results of revision
total knee arthroplasty (TKA) undertaken for stiffness in the absence
of sepsis or loosening. We present the results of revision surgery for stiff TKA in 48
cases (35 (72.9%) women and 13 (27.1%) men). The mean age at revision
surgery was 65.5 years (42 to 83). All surgeries were performed
by a single surgeon. Stiffness was defined as an arc of flexion
of <
70° or a flexion contracture of >
15°. The changes in the
range of movement (ROM) and the Western Ontario and McMasters Osteoarthritis
index scores (WOMAC) were recorded.Aims
