JOINT LINE CHANGES AND PATELLA BAJA INFLUENCE CLINICAL OUTCOMES OF REVISION TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY

Objective: The purpose of our study was to determine joint line (JL), posterior condylar offset ratio (PCOR), and patellar height alterations following revision total knee arthroplasty (RTKA) and evaluate the functional results according to the critical limits defined in the literature. Material and...

description Objective: The purpose of our study was to determine joint line (JL), posterior condylar offset ratio (PCOR), and patellar height alterations following revision total knee arthroplasty (RTKA) and evaluate the functional results according to the critical limits defined in the literature. Material and Method: Fifty-one patients with a minimum of two years of follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic data and operative reports were evaluated. Joint line change was measured according to the method of Figgie. Patellar height was measured using the Insall–Salvati Index and the Blackburn–Peel Index. The effect of JL, patellar height alteration, and PCOR on functional outcomes was analyzed using the Knee Society Score (KSS), knee range of motion (ROM), SF-12, and visual analog scale score as functional results. Result: Patients whose joint lines were not reconstructed had a lower KSS than those whose JLs were restored in accordance with the crucial limit of 5 mm. The other functional results were similar. Functional outcomes were similar between patients with PCORs under 0.44 and those with PCORs higher than 0.44. There was also no significant difference in functional results for the group of patients whose PCOR was lower than 0.5 and those whose PCOR was higher than 0.5. The patients with patella baja had significantly lower knee ROMs, KSS, and SF-12 PCS scores than those without patella baja (p:0.012,p:0.03, and p:0.01, respectively). Conclusion: In this study, joint line change >5 mm and patella baja negatively affected clinical outcomes after RTKA
