Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the long-term outcomes of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for end-stage hemophilic arthropathy.Methods Eighteen patients (24 knees) with hemophilic arthropathy underwent TKA from June 2003 to January 2009 were retrospectively reviewed.All patients were hemophilia A with an average age of 33.7± 13.0 years (18-56tyears) old at Surgery.Pharmacokinetic tests of coagulation factors were performed after consultation of hematologist.Based on the guideline of World Federation of hemophilia,the protocol of coagulation factor replacement was adjusted according to our experience and the financial status.Normally,peak level of coagulation factor concentrations were maintained at 100％ on the day of surgery,at about 80％ in the first 3 days after surgery,at 60％ on the postoperative days of 4-6 and at 40％ on postoperative days of 7-10.The dose was then gradually tapered to 20％ or 30％.Zimmer prosthesis was used in three cases (PS prosthesis in two cases,LCCK prosthesis in one case),Centerpulse prosthesis in three cases,and the rest were from Smith & Nephew (including one case of constrained prosthesis and one case of revision prosthesis).Preoperative and last follow-up Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score,Knee Society Score (KSS),knee flexion contracture and complications were evaluated.Results Fourteen patients(20 knees) were followed-up,with an average duration of 124±17 months (96-145 months).Knee flexion contracture improved from 16.7°±12.2° (0°-40°) preoperative to 3.3 °±5.0° (0°-10°) at the last follow-up.The average preoperative HSS score was 42.4± 16.0 (t 0-60),whereas postoperative score was 74.8± 10.6 (59-87).The preoperative KSS clinical and functional score were 36.1 ± 10.5 (20-50) and 36.1±5.5 (25-40),which were improved to 85.8±7.1 (70-93) and 80.9±22.4 (40-100) at the last follow-up,respectively.Postoperative infection,aseptic loosening of the implant and hematoma occurred in one patient respectively.All of them recovered after a revision surgery.One patient had secondary skin ulceration due to tension blisters and recovered after anterolateral thigh myocutaneous flap transplantation.Conclusion The long-term outcomes of TKA under coagulation factor substitution for hemophilic arthropathy are promising.However,the effects are inferior to those in non-hemophilic patients,and the risk of infection,aseptic loosening of the implant and hematoma are higher.
