ARTHROPLASTY
Metal-backed versus all-polyethylene tibial components in primary total knee arthroplasty
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
OE Journal. 2013;1(2):22 Acta Orthop. 2011 Oct;82(5):589-95. Epub 2011 Sep 6This meta-analysis and systematic review identified 9 randomized controlled trials that compared all-polyethylene (AP) tibial components to metal-backed (MB) tibial components in primary total knee arthroplasty. The results from this analysis demonstrate no significant difference in radiographic and clinical outcomes between both the AP and MB tibial component groups.

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？
Tibial component design is an extremely important aspect related to implant failure in total knee arthroplasty. The metal-backed (MB) tibial component design is more commonly used in TKA and is believed to result in better outcomes compared to the use of an all-polyethylene (AP) design. The MB component is thought to have several advantages; however, it is more expensive and can increase wear and tensile stresses during eccentric loading. Although several randomized trials have been performed evaluating the effectiveness of the MB component, this data has not been systematically analysed in order to determine the benefits of the MB component for patients.
主な研究課題は何ですか？
What are the outcomes of an all-polyethylene (AP) tibial component compared to a metal-back (MB) tibial component, in terms of radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty?
重要な知見は？
- The mean standardized Detsky score for the overall quality of the studies was 14 (SD 3).
- The pooled results from 4 studies demonstrate that the evidence of radiolucent lines adjacent to the tibial component was higher in the MB group compared to the AP group (41 (27.7%) and 16 (10%), respectively) (RR=2.8, CI: 1.7-4.6; p<0.001; I^2=47%).
- All of the studies demonstrated that there was no significant difference between the two groups with respect to functional outcomes, including Oxford Knee Score, Knee Society Score, Hospital for Special Surgery score, range of motion, quality of life and post-operative complications, as well as implant alignment.
最も覚えておくべきことは？
Similar radiologic and clinical results were observed with the use of both the AP and MB tibial components. The increase in frequency of radiolucent lines in the MB group did not lead to an increase in implant failure.
それが私の患者ケアにどのように影響するか？
The results from this meta-analysis indicate no functional differences between AP and MB tibial components for TKA. However, high quality randomized controlled trials are still required to validate these results.
