Dr. B.G. Pijls speaks on the long term beneficial effect of hydroxyapatite in TKA.
48 patients (68 knees) scheduled for total knee arthroplasty were randomized to receive a cemented, cementless non-coated, or cementless hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated tibial component to determine the effect of HA on long-term migration of the prosthesis. Radiostereometric analyses (RSA), Knee Society Scores, Hospital for Special Surgery scores, and radiographic evaluation were recorded over 16 years. The results indicated that migration of HA-coated components was improved compared to non-coated components, but increased in comparison to cemented components.

Fragility Indexは、重要な所見の解釈を助けるツールで、結果の強さの尺度を提供します。Fragility Indexは、その所見が有意でなくなるために、二項対立の結果に追加する必要がある連続した事象の数を表します。数値が小さいほど弱い所見を表し、数値が大きいほど強い所見を表します。
なぜ今この研究が必要なのですか?
Although the beneficial early fixation properties of hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings on cementless prosthetic components in total knee arthroplasty have been extensively studied and researched, reports of the long-term migration of HA-coated components are limited. Moreover, complications of delamination and third-body wear associated with the HA-coating have been reported in total hip arthroplasty, which could cause long-term problems.
主な研究課題は何ですか?
Does HA-coating maintain fixation properties and reduce migration of components in total knee arthroplasty over the long-term (11 to 16 years) when compared to uncoated components and cemented components?
重要な知見は?
- Migration of the HA-coated tibial components was less than the non-coated components (MD 0.39mm, 95%CI 0.16-0.62)
- HA-coated components were observed to have significantly greater migration compared to cemented components (MD 0.61mm, 95%CI 0.42-0.80, p<0.001)
- HA-coating decreased subsidence by 0.26mm (95%CI 0.10-0.42) and external rotation by 0.47 degrees (95%CI 0.27-0.67) when compared to non-coated components.
- There was no significant difference observed between groups in clinical outcomes of KSS and HSS at 10 years postoperatively.
- The groups did not significantly differ in radiographic assessments of FTA, alpha, beta, and delta angles of components.
- 49 of the operated knees underwent TKA as a result of rheumatoid arthritis, 18 due to osteoarthritis, and 1 because of sequelae after septic arthritis.
- Longitudinal follow-up of TKA with RSA allowed for early detection of secondary loosening.
最も覚えておくべきことは?
The use of HA-coating on cementless components for total knee arthroplasty decreased prosthesis migration significantly, when compared to non-coated cementless components. However, an increase in migration was observed when HA-coated components were compared to cemented components.
それが私の患者ケアにどのように影響するか?
HA-coating of cementless tibial components can reduce long-term migration compared to non-coated cementless components. However, cemented components appear to provide the greatest reduction in migration. Further research is required to confirm these findings in studies using larger sample sizes and a more balanced population (equal number of patients requiring treatment due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other disorders).
