Abstract:
Objective:To explore the reasons for revision of tumor prosthesis of knee joint and summarize the experience of revision surgery.Methods:We conducted a retrospective study of 33 patients who underwent revision surgery for tumor prosthesis of knee joint in Tianjin Hospital and the 960th Hospital of the People's Liberation Army Hospital from June 2004 to June 2018. There were 25 male and 8 female patients, the mean age was 45±13.1 years (range 19-64 years) at the time of revision. Histological diagnosis was giant cell tumor in 17 patients, osteosarcoma in 9 patients, malignant fibrous histiocytoma in 3 patients and one for each of chondrosarcoma, peripheral schwannoma, ligamentoid fibroma and bone metastases. The reasons for revision were aseptic loosening in 23 cases, dislocation, stem breakage and periprosthetic fracture in 2 cases, infection in 3 cases, and local recurrence in 1 case. The general outcome, oncological outcome, reasons for prosthesis revision, postoperative limb function, and complications were summarized.Results:The median follow-up of the 33 patients was 48.0 (24.0, 107.0) months. The most common reason for revision was aseptic loosening (88%, 29/33), followed by infection (9%, 3/33) and local recurrence (3%, 1/33). The MSTS of 32 patients with survival more than 1 year was 24.28±4.74 points (range 9-30 points), which was statistically different from preoperative 11.78±5.23 points (range 4-21 points) ( t=10.02, P<0.001). The postoperative median TESS score of 32 patients with survival more than 1 year was 86.67(80.00, 91.67) points, and the preoperative median score was 56.0(43.17, 65.33) points, which was statistically significant ( Z=6.78, P<0.001). Postoperative complications occurred in 12 patients, most commonly mechanical problems (15%, 5/33) and infection (15%, 5/33), followed by local recurrence (6%, 2/33), with an overall complication rate of 36% (12/33). Conclusion:The main reason for revision of tumor prosthesis of knee joint is aseptic loosening. Revision surgery can achieve ideal postoperative function and should be the first choice for failure of prosthesis after initial replacement.
