Long-Term Survivorship and Clinical Outcomes Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most successful commonly performed orthopedic procedures; as such, the purpose was to assess the long-term outcomes and survivorship of primary TKAs with a dual-radius prosthesis. We evaluated 125-patients (145-knees), with a mean age of 63years (37-90years) for a mean 11-year follow-up (10-13years). Outcomes were assessed with KSS, UCLA, SF-36, satisfaction scores, and aseptic survivorship analysis. At 10-year follow-up, the UCLA (6-points), KSS objective (84-points) and functional (73-points), SF-36 physical (41-points) and mental (51-points), and patient satisfaction (14-points) scores were reported to be good to excellent. The 10-year Kaplan-Meier survivorship rate was 99%; one TKA demonstrated radiographic loosening. At a minimum 10-year follow-up, this device demonstrated satisfactory outcomes and outstanding aseptic-survivorship rates.
