been shown to be comparable to aseptic TKA in terms
of range of motion, knee scores, patient satisfaction,

Of note, recent evidence has shown that TKA per-
formed after an episode of septic arthritis is associated

glycemic control (uncontrolled diabetes mellitus) are
associated with a higher risk of periprosthetic joint

infection after TKA for a native septic joint arthritis.
This may be due to poor management of medical
comorbidities such as diabetes, smoking, or immunosuppression, which could have caused the initial septic
arthritis. Nonetheless, with good management of
comorbidities, aggressive physical therapy, and patient
7
education, good clinical outcomes can be achieved
(Bauer et al. 2010). Additionally, better clinical outcomes may be achieved by waiting at least 1year, and
preferably 2years after the initial infection has cleared,
before attempting a TKA (Kim etal. 2003; Sultan etal.
2019; Tan etal. 2019).
While TKA is a relatively safe choice for treating degenerative changes after septic arthritis, there are some contraindications to be aware of. Patients with an ongoing
infection of the knee or who have a condition that might
preclude them from non-emergent surgery (such as a
cardiovascular event or systemic immunosuppression)
should not undergo a TKA (Schmitt etal. 2017). Other
situations in which TKA is contraindicated are neurological disease of the lower extremity (such as a nonfunctional extensor mechanism) and ischemic or
thrombotic leg disease (Promish et al. 2018; Thornhill
and Lee (n.d.), available at 7

Complications that arise from the use of TKA to treat
septic arthritis are essentially the same as those that
arise from any joint arthroplasty. The two categories of
complications are broadly classied into:
weight, then TKA is not as likely to be successful. In
these instances, alternative methods should be discussed.
Finally, in cases where there is signicant destruction of
the joint and there is severe bone loss or ligamentous
incompetence, a constrained implant (Moussa et al.

2017) or on occasions a hinge prosthesis should be con-
sidered (Rodríguez-Merchán 2019).
When considering septic complications, the most common pathogen remains Staphylococcus aureus¸ which
may be treated empirically or through bacterial culture.
Common causes of aseptic complications include periprosthetic fracture, aseptic loosening, and polyethylene
wear, among others (Lee etal. 2017).
Revision rates after TKA in post-septic arthritis
patients have been demonstrated to be much higher than
that of TKA patient population, in general.
> In fact, the most common reason for revision in a
patient who has had septic arthritis is joint infection
(Yu etal. 2018).
It is noteworthy that revision rates for periprosthetic
joint infection (PJI) for patients after TKA range from
0.8% to 1.9% in the general population (Ratto et al.
2017), whereas revision rates for PJI are much higher
(12%) in patients who received TKA for septic arthritis
(Jenny and Diesinger 2011).
Conclusion
z
Post-septic arthritis can present either as an acute, quiescent, or evolutive infection. In persistent progressive
cases, it can result in degenerative joint disease. Based
on the stage of the disease, patients should be treated
with aspiration, irrigation, and debridement, or total
knee arthroplasty, in combination with a tailored antibiotic protocol depending on the infecting organism,
if known. While arthroscopic irrigation and debridement seem to produce better clinical outcomes in the
acute setting, total knee arthroplasty appears to be
safe at least 1 year after septic arthritis and has been
shown to ensure adequate infection control and functional joint outcomes. It is important to counsel patients
about the elevated risk of periprosthetic joint infection
in these cases. Strong evidence on the choice of surgical
approach (one-stage vs. two-stage) in post-septic arthritis is still lacking. Overall, studies investigating total
knee arthroplasty in setting of post-septic arthritis are
scarce. Further research on this topic is warranted.

Take-Home Messages
5 For an appropriate treatment, categorization of
post-septic arthritis into acute, quiescent, or
evolutive is imperative.
5 Both one-stage and two-stage TKAs result in
favorable clinical outcomes, but seem to be associated with high rates of postoperative PJI.
5 Old investigations suggest the choice of one-stage
TKA for quiescent, and two-stage TKA for evolutive septic arthritis.
5 Even today, strong evidence is still lacking on the
choice of one-stage versus two-stage TKA.
5 More studies focusing on the use of TKA for the
treatment of post-septic arthritis are warranted.

8.1 Introduction
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of
arthritis, affecting over 27million people in the United
States and over 250million people worldwide (O’Neill
et al. 2018; Vos etal. 2012). Among patients aged 63
to 94years, 33% were found to have radiographic presence of OA (Felson etal. 1987). Additionally, it has been
estimated that 45% of adults will develop symptomatic
knee OA between the ages of 45 and 85 (Murphy etal.
2008). The risk factors for progression of OA are not well
understood. However, knee OA represents a substantial
burden to society. The cost of treating OA in developed
countries is between 1% and 2.5% of the gross domestic product (GDP) (Hiligsmann etal. 2013; March and
Bachmeier 1997). Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an
extremely successful and cost-effective treatment for
8
advanced knee OA but is not without complications
(Price etal. 2018). While there are many additional etiologies of arthritis, including post- traumatic arthritis,
osteonecrosis, infectious, and inammatory arthritis,
this chapter will focus on primary osteoarthritis. In the
rst section, we will examine patient and lifestyle factors
that may contribute to the development of knee OA.In
the second section, we will review the most common reasons for failure of cemented TKA and the correlation of
individual patient variables.
8.2 Patient andLifestyle Risk Factors
Associated withtheDevelopment
ofKnee Osteoarthritis
8.2.1 Patient Factors
8.2.1.1 Genetics
Genetic studies offer a partial explanation for the development of knee OA. Multiple genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been conducted in the hopes
of identifying the molecular pathogenesis of knee
OA. Over 30 genetic loci have been associated with
OA (Gonzalez and Valdes 2018; Kerkhof et al. 2010;
Panoutsopoulou and Zeggini 2013; Zengini etal. 2018),
but these have been found to explain only about 25% of
heritability (Gonzalez and Valdes 2018), often as a result
of differential genetic expression (Zengini etal. 2018).
Other genetic efforts have focused on studies of identical twins to quantify the contribution of genetics. When
controlling environmental confounders, one study estimated that up to 65% of the variance in knee OA could
be attributable to genetic factors (Spector etal. 1996). A
second twin study, however, found that twins with OA
of the knee were up to ve kilograms (kg) heavier than
their co-twin without the disease, supporting more of an
inuence of weight than genetics (Cicuttini etal.
Thus, while there is likely a component of genetic contribution to the development of knee OA, much remains
to be investigated prior to clinical application.
8.2.1.2 Gender Dierences
> There do seem to be clear gender differences between
the burden of knee OA in men and women.
The Framingham study found that there was a slightly
greater preponderance of radiographic knee OA in
women (34%) than men (31%) (Felson et al. 1987).
Additionally, in this study, the presence of symptomatic knee OA was greater in women than men (11.4%
vs. 6.8%). There also appear to be differences in presentation between genders. Women demonstrate lower
preoperative functional scores before undergoing TKA
compared to men (O’Connor 1846), including reduced
quadriceps strength, 6-min walk test, and stair-climbing
times (Petterson etal. 2007). Additionally, women have
lower preoperative Western Ontario and McMaster
Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) scores (Lingard
etal. 2004; MacDonald etal. 2008).
Gender differences among knee OA have lead many
researchers to investigate the role of sex hormones in
OA development. Menarche at younger age (Leung
etal. 2019) and childbirth (Leung etal. 2019; Wise etal.
2013) have been associated with increased knee OA.In
fact, in the Million Women study, each additional birth
was associated with an 8% increase in relative risk of
knee replacement (Liu etal. 2009). Interestingly, age at
menopause does not appear to alter the risk of knee
replacement (Hussain etal. 2018; Liu etal. 2009), suggesting a temporal effect of estrogen exposure at a
younger age on the risk of OA development in women.
If this is true, then one may expect exogenous sex hormone supplementation to also inuence knee OA.While
estrogen-containing oral contraceptives (OCPs) have
been reported to reduce the risk of ACL injuries
(Herzberg etal. 2017), studies accessing OCP use and
risk of TKA compared to nonusers have demonstrated
conicting results (Hussain et al. 2018; Leung et al.
2019; Liu etal. 2009). Similarly conicting ndings have
been reported with hormone replacement therapy
(HRT) for postmenopausal women. In the Million
Women study, patients treated with HRT had signicantly increased incidence of knee replacement (Liu
etal. 2009), but other studies have reported a reduced
risk of OA at the knee after HRT treatment (Spector
etal. 1997). Therefore, the currently available evidence
does not support a role for HRT in the primary prevention of OA.
In the male population, there is a paucity of evidence
on testosterone levels and the development of
OA.Testosterone levels have been associated with other
1996).

known OA risk factors including muscle weakness and
BMI, and testosterone levels are known to decrease with
age (Harman etal. 2001), but at present the role of testosterone in the etiology of OA warrants further investigation prior to clinical application.
8.2.1.3 Malalignment
Lower extremity malalignment has demonstrated
a signicant inuence on the development of knee
OA.In fact, patient self-reported varus or valgus knee
malalignment during young adulthood was associated with subsequent development of knee OA later
in life (McWilliams et al. 2010). The Multicenter
Osteoarthritis Study (Sharma etal. 2010) reported an
odds ratio of 3.59 for the development of medial knee
OA in patients with varus alignment and an odds ratio
of 4.85 for lateral OA in patients with valgus alignment. Subsequent studies have reafrmed the potent
inuence of malalignment, with particular risk of
varus alignment on the development of medial knee
OA (Felson etal. 2005).
8.2.1.4 Obesity
> Obesity is one of the most inuential risk factors for
the development of knee OA.
The World Health Organization (WHO) denes obesity
as a body mass index (BMI)>30kg/m2 (James etal. 2001)
(. Table8.1). In the WHO denition, obesity is further
stratied into classes 1–3, or sometimes referred to as
“moderate,” “severe,” or “very severe.” More commonly,
authors have used “obesity” to describe patients with a
BMI 30–39.9, “morbid obesity” for patients with BMI
40–49.9, and a new term of “super obesity” for patients
with BMI greater than 50 (Sturm 2003) (. Table8.2).
For the purposes of this chapter, we will utilize these latter terms to provide consistency with the cited studies.
Among US adults in 2014, 35% of men and 40% of
women were obese (Flegal etal. 2016), and predictions

estimate will be 65 million more obese adults in the
United States by 2030 (Wang etal.
2011). A 2010 report
estimated the total annual cost of obesity to the US
economy exceeded $215billion, and that this was probably twice the cost spent on adults of healthy weight
(Hammond and Levine 2010). In fact, care for obese
patients may account for as much as 21% of all US medical costs (Cawley and Meyerhoefer
2012).
The risk of knee OA in the obese population has
been repeatedly demonstrated (Grotle etal. 2008; Mork
etal. 2012; Sturmer etal. 2000). This risk is increased by
3.87in obese women and 4.78in obese men (Anderson
and Felson 1988). Furthermore, increasing levels of
obesity appear to confer additional risks. Patients with a
2
BMI ≥ 35kg/m
required arthroplasty 7years earlier
compared to patients with BMI≤25 mg/kg2 (Gandhi
etal. 2010).
The pathogenesis of OA in the obese patient is multifactorial. Mechanically, two to ve times body weight
is transmitted across the knee joint during daily activities (Maquet and Pelzer 1977). Reactive forces across the
patellofemoral joint are four times the body weight
when ascending or descending stairs, and eight times
when squatting (Reilly and Martens 1972). Thus these
forces are compounded in the obese patient and can precipitate early cartilage wear and the development of
knee OA.On a molecular level, adipose tissue may produce abnormal levels of certain hormones and growth
factors which can affect cartilage and the underlying
bone, possibly leading to degeneration. Adipose tissue
releases adipokine, a protein that has been implicated in
cartilage inammation and degradation (Pottie et al.
2006). Furthermore, modest associations between ele-
vated levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in
the knee have been observed in patients with knee OA
(Lloyd etal. 1996), although other studies have not supported this association (Denko etal. 1990). A multitude
of additional proinammatory cytokines is the subject
of intense investigation (Courties etal. 2019). While a
full discussion is beyond the scope of this chapter, this
research is invaluable in elucidating the molecular
pathophysiology of adiposity and its inuence on OA
development.

If obesity is correlated with an increased risk of knee
OA, then it follows that weight loss should decrease OA
risk, or at the very least symptoms of OA.Indeed, the
Framingham study reported that reduction in 2 or more
BMI units signicantly decreased the odds of developing OA (Felson etal. 1992). Messier conducted a prospective, randomized trial, concluding that modest
dietary weight loss in combination with moderate exercise leads to signicant improvement in self-reported
measures of knee pain, function, and mobility (Messier
et al. 2004). In this study, a 5% weight loss over an
18-month period resulted in an 18% improvement in
function, and when diet was combined with exercise,
this functional improvement increased to 24%. There
was no difference in radiographic joint space as a product of weight loss, however. Surgically assisted weight
loss offers promising results for the obese suffering from
8
knee pain. In a prospective trial of vertical-banded gastroplasty, 1year postoperatively patients lost on average
97 pounds, and 87% reported complete relief of pain in
one or more joints (McGoey et al. 1990). Specically
regarding the knee, in this study, 57% of patients
reported pain prior to gastroplasty, which decreased to
14% at 1-year follow-up. Interestingly, the authors found
no difference in patients who lost a moderate amount (<
60 pounds) of weight compared to those who lost a
greater amount (>99 pounds), suggesting a possible
threshold effect on weight loss. A second bariatric surgery report found that in patients who self-reported
knee pain but did not have a formal diagnosis of OA,
weight loss was associated with a rapid and dependable
means of reversing the early radiologic changes associated with OA (Abu-Abeid etal. 2005).
that Vitamin C may reduce the risk of cartilage loss
and disease progression, but had no effect on incident
OA.Vitamin K deciency has been associated with an
increased risk of developing radiographic knee OA
(Misra et al.
2013) and other authors have suggested
some association between lack of Vitamin K-dependent proteins and progression of knee OA (Shea etal.
2015). Unfortunately, while multiple replacement trials
have been conducted, no trial has demonstrated signicant benecial evidence in those with established knee
OA.Specically, trials examining replacement of Vitamin A (Canter et al. 2007), Vitamin C (Canter et al.
2007), Vitamin D (Diao etal. 2017), Vitamin E (Wluka
et al. 2002), and selenium (Canter et al. 2007), all
reported disappointing results. Therefore, the current
available evidence does not support making specic
recommendations regarding dietary supplementation
to prevent or treat established knee OA.Turmeric is a
top-selling herbal supplement (Ficke etal. 2018), the
principal component of which is curcumin (Curcuma
longa). Turmeric has historically been used to treat
inammation through a proposed mechanism of limiting pro-inammatory enzymes in the cyclooxygenase
and lipoxygenase families and inammatory transcription factor nuclear factor kappa beta (Aggarwal and
Sung 2009; Jurenka 2009). A prospective trial of turmeric administration in knee OA patients demonstrated
decreased biochemical markers of inammation as well
as improvement in patient-reported joint function, supporting its role as an effective herbal anti-inammatory
(Belcaro etal. 2010).
There is limited, poor-quality evidence that any specic diet inuences the rate of knee OA.Animal studies
have shown that olive oil may lower articular cartilage
degradation (Musumeci etal. 2013). A follow-up study
8.2.2 Lifestyle Factors
suggested that patients who follow a Mediterranean
diet, of which olive oil is often a principle component, is

associated with lower prevalence of knee OA (Veronese
etal. 2017). High intakes of total fat and saturated fatty
acids have been correlated with increased structural
knee OA progression, while monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids have been suggested to reduce
One study reported that nearly 18% of patients used
some form of dietary supplements (Ficke etal. 2018).
Natural vitamin supplementation has been extensively
studied, but has not shown promising results. General
supplementation with Vitamin D demonstrates conicting evidence. Felson and colleagues found that Vitamin
D status was unrelated to risk of joint space or cartilage
loss in knee OA (Felson etal. 2007a), while McAlindon
demonstrated that low intake and low serum levels of
Vitamin D each appear to be associated with increased
risk for progression of knee OA (McAlindon et al.
1996). The same study found relatively poor evidence
progression (Lu et al. 2017). At present, however, specic inuences of dietary patterns are of very poor and
limited evidence.
8.2.2.2 Smoking andAlcohol
Smoking appears to be associated with a reduction in
the risk of developing knee OA, though these ndings
must be interpreted with some caution. A meta-analysis
reported the relative risk of developing knee OA for
smokers was 0.80, with a more marked effect in men
than women (Kong et al. 2017). Hui and colleagues
similarly reported that smokers had a lower odds of

developing OA at any joint, and suggested one potential mechanism could be that smokers tended to have a
lower BMI than nonsmokers (Hui et al. 2011). Leung
similarly demonstrated a strong dose-dependent association between increased duration and dosage of smoking with a decreasing risk of total knee arthroplasty
(Leung etal. 2014). The authors suggested that nicotine
promotes proliferation and collagen synthesis in chondrocytes. However, these results should be interpreted
with extreme caution, as the primary outcome measure
was patient selection for total knee replacement, which
may have been biased if surgeons did not want to operate on smokers due to fear of pulmonary complications
or wound healing problems.
Limited evidence exists on the effects of alcohol and
knee OA. One study reported that beer consumption
appears to increase the risk of developing hip and knee
OA, but wine consumption was associated with a
reduced risk (Muthuri etal. 2015).
8.2.2.3 Exercise andMuscle Strength
Exercise and its inuence on the risk of knee OA is a
complicated issue. Anecdotally, many patients and physicians surmise that long-term, high-impact exercise
may risk the development of OA.While this may seem
plausible, the evidence for this is not wholly convincing.
In fact, multiple studies of both the general population
as well as recreational runners found no increased risk
of knee OA in those who reported undertaking regular, “moderate” physical activity (Felson et al. 2007b;
Hannan etal. 1993; Lane etal. 1993; McAlindon etal.
1999; Panush etal. 1995). However, other more intense
activities, particularly those that involve deep knee
exion, have shown signicant associations with knee
OA. In the Framingham study, self-reported “heavy”
physical activity with a threshold of greater than 4h per
day had increased odds of knee OA (McAlindon etal.
1999). A second study identied patients who engaged
in cycling and prolonged squatting as higher risk for
knee OA (Dahaghin etal. 2009).
> Thus, historical assumptions of activity level on knee
OA may not be accurate, and warrant further investi-
gation to determine objective threshold measure-
ments by which practitioners can guide patients.
Muscle strength also appears to play a role in the progression of knee OA.Patients with symptomatic knee
OA have demonstrated reduced muscle strength, particularly of the quadriceps (Leyland et al. 2012; Murphy etal. 2008). Historically, this has been thought to
be secondary to osteoarthritis-related joint symptoms,
resulting in reduced activity levels and consequent muscle atrophy. However, more recent studies suggest that
muscle weakness predates the onset of knee OA (Oiestad etal.
2010; Segal etal. 2010; Slemenda etal. 1998).
Specically, weakness of the knee extensor mechanism
was shown to signicantly increase the odds of developing symptomatic OA (Oiestad etal. 2015).
> Therefore, muscle weakness may represent an impor-
tant modiable risk factor to help slow the progression of knee OA.
A systematic review of the literature provided an international consensus statement on daily activities and
structured exercise related to knee OA (Vignon et al.
2006) (. Table8.3). The authors concluded that activi-
ties of daily living (ADL) were a risk factor for knee OA,
and that risk increases with intensity and duration of
these activities. However, the strength of the supporting
data was graded as moderate, and no threshold activity
level was able to be dened, limiting clinical utility in
patient education.

8.2.2.4 Occupation
> Occupation also appears to have a signicant effect
on the risk of knee OA.
In a landmark study of outcomes following TKA, Sharkey and colleagues identify the predominant etiologies
of failure for modern TKA prostheses at 10-year followup (Sharkey etal. 2014).
Kwon and colleagues examined men over the age of 50
stratied by occupation type (Kwon etal. 2019). They
classied occupations as follows:
5 White collar (WC) including managers, profession-
als, and ofce workers
5 Pink collar (PC) including service and salespersons
5 Blue collar (BC) including technicians and device/
machine operators
5 Agribusiness and low-level (AL) including skilled
workers in agriculture and shery and low-level
laborers
> In the rst 2years, infection was the most common
reason for early revision.
Beyond 2 years, aseptic, or noninfectious, loosening
was the predominant mode of failure, accounting for
39.9% of revisions. Additional etiologies for late failure included infection (27.4%), periprosthetic fracture
(4.7%), and arthrobrosis (4.5%). Similar results have
also been reported by other authors (Schroer etal. 2013).
While infection is undoubtedly an important etiology of
TKA failure, it is beyond the scope of this chapter and
is covered elsewhere in the text. In this section, we will

They observed that the risk for knee OA was highest in

radiographic knee OA was highest in AL followed by

sions support that knee OA risk was correlated with the
degree of physical labor associated with an occupation.
Another occupational study found that jobs requiring
8.3.1 Aseptic Loosening
repetitive kneeling and squatting, including mining and
carpentry, were at increased odds of knee OA (Maetzel
etal. 1997). Professional athletes have also been shown to
have increased risk of developing knee OA, particularly
soccer players and weight lifters (Kujala etal. 1995). However, there may be confounding factors as soccer players
may be more prone to knee injuries which could predispose them to post-traumatic arthritis, and weight lifters
may be more prone to knee OA secondary to a higher
BMI that may be more common in this population.
Additionally, in Vignon and colleagues’ systematic
Aseptic loosening is thought to be due to the development of excess wear particles that induce a proinammatory state, which in turn leads to osteoclast
differentiation and macrophage production, ultimately
leading to local osteolysis and consequent loosening of
the prosthesis (Jiang etal. 2013). Aseptic loosening is an
end result, and its etiology can and often may be multifactorial. Causes may include preoperative factors such
as obesity, intraoperative malalignment, or postoperative activity level.
international review of activity level in knee OA patients,
the authors also concluded that there was a relationship
between occupational activity (Vignon etal. 2006). This
study found that physically demanding work was associated with knee OA with a high level of evidence. However,
the authors were not clearly able to characterize the biomechanical stresses leading to OA, which limits the generalizability of the ndings to specic work-related activities.
Rather, they simply concluded that work- related activities
8.3.1.1 Obesity
The contribution of obesity to aseptic loosening has been
extensively studied, with conicting results. Multiple
studies have supported a positive association between
obesity and aseptic loosening (Foran etal. 2004a; Ritter
etal. 2011; Schiffner etal. 2019). Several other studies,
meanwhile, have refuted these ndings (Chaudhry etal.
2019; Si etal. 2015).

loosening is likely multifactorial, and is at least partially inuenced by surgeon technique when cementing the prosthesis.
> Cemented TKA is a successful operation to treat end-
stage arthritis of the knee, with reported survivorship
of 82% at 25years across a range of prosthetic designs

This intuitively may be more difcult in the obese
patient for whom exposure may be more challenging,
yet this confounding variable may be difcult to objectively measure even in well-designed studies. Similarly,

while aseptic loosening has been shown to be the predominant reason for revision at 10years (Sharkey etal.
2014), other studies with shorter follow-up may not
adequately capture this mode of failure. Some authors
advocate for prophylactic tibial stem extension when
performing cemented TKA in the obese population to
help mitigate the risk of aseptic loosening, but this has
not been shown to signicantly affect early failures at an
average of nearly 3-year follow-up (Steere etal. 2018).
We have previously discussed the role of weight loss
in reducing the incidence and symptoms associated with
knee OA, and is worth discussing the role of weight loss
before and after total joint arthroplasty. Many obese
patients cite their knee pain as a barrier to exercise and
the consequent barrier to weight loss, which presents a
challenge for the surgeon. It is a commonly held belief
among the medical community that patients will lose
weight after undergoing knee arthroplasty, but a metaanalysis reporting 1-year follow-up presented strong evidence that this does not in fact occur within this time
period (Inacio etal. 2013). Furthermore, one study demonstrated that at 12-month follow-up, while 12.5% of
obese patients had achieved a clinically signicant
weight loss of 5% after arthroplasty, 21% had actually
gained weight. However, a longer term study looking
beyond 2-year follow-up did support a statistically signicant decrease in weight after TKA, suggesting that
TKA may facilitate weight loss, but that these effects
may not be appreciable until outside of the follow-up
period utilized in prior studies (Duchman etal. 2014).
Additionally, many surgeons refer obese patients for
bariatric surgery prior to elective total joint arthroplasty.
Springer reported on the fate of these patients, noting
that only 23% of referred patients actually attended
their bariatric appointment and only 7% underwent bariatric surgery prior to arthroplasty. The authors of this
study make an interesting point that some surgeons
argue that obese patients cannot lose weight due to their
musculoskeletal limitations and, therefore, we should
operate on them regardless of BMI. However, the
authors state that we would not consent to operate in
other forms of uncontrolled disease, such as diabetes or
open wounds, and that one might consider a similar
stance for obesity. Parvizi et al. reported on the outcomes of patients who underwent bariatric surgery prior
to TKA (Parvizi et al. 2000). The mean reduction in
BMI was from 49 to 29, and mean time from bariatric
surgery to joint replacement was 23 months. In this
study, Knee Society scores (KSS) improved signicantly
postoperatively and no patient required revision at mean
follow-up of 3.7years.
> The authors conclude that morbidly obese patients
with severe osteoarthritis who are deemed unsuitable
for joint replacement because of weight should be
considered for bariatric surgery.
8.3.1.2 Malalignment
Malalignment after TKA has been shown to be a signicant reason for revision surgery (Evans etal. 2019).
Severe malalignment may predispose to early failure due
to abnormal joint biomechanics, while less pronounced
malalignment could predispose to implant loosening
secondary to abnormal joint forces across the implant–
cement or cement–bone interfaces. Preoperative alignment is predictive of postoperative failure, with increased
risk associated with greater than 8° of varus or greater
than 11° of valgus (Ritter etal. 2013). In patients undergoing TKA with traditional instrumentation, preoperative limb alignment and BMI were signicant predictive
factors in postoperative limb alignment (Estes et al.
2013). Obesity has been shown in several studies to be
a risk factor for postoperative malalignment, including
risk in technical errors of component malpositioning
(Gaillard etal. 2017; Jarvenpaa etal. 2010), and a higher
risk for varus limb malalignment with increased BMI
(Gaillard etal. 2017). One study has refuted these ndings, showing no difference in malalignment after TKA
(Ojard etal. 2018). A study of computer navigation in
TKA showed no differences in postoperative limb alignment in the obese compared to non-obese, suggesting a
potential benet of computer navigation to help mitigate the reported risks of malalignment in this population (Shetty etal. 2014).
8.3.1.3 Activity Level
As activity level has historically and perhaps erroneously
been associated with increased knee osteoarthritis, similarly we have assumed that increased activity would lead
to earlier failure of cemented TKA.In a meta- analysis of
aseptic loosening after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and
TKA, Chierian and colleagues found that high activity
levels were a risk factor for loosening in THA, but this
was not replicated in TKA (Cherian etal. 2015). In fact,
using the University of California, Los Angeles Activity
Scale, Crawford etal. reported that after controlling for
confounding variables, highly active patients actually
demonstrated increased survivorship at 5-year minimum follow-up compared with lower activity patients
(Crawford etal. 2020). While these ndings attempt to
refute historical dogma, further study is warranted to
ascertain if these trends persist with longer follow-up.
