Outcome and survival after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be affected by patient characteristics. We examined the effect of case-mix on revision after primary THA using the Dutch Arthroplasty Register. Our cohort included all primary THAs (n = 218,214) performed in patients with osteoarthritis in the Netherlands between 2007 and 2018. Mul...

Clinically important thresholds improve interpretability of patient-reported outcomes. A threshold for a successful outcome does not exist for the Forgotten Joint Score (FJS). The purpose of this study is to determine a threshold score for the FJS, 1 and 2 years after total hip arthroplasty (THA). A retrospective analysis of 247 primary THA recipie...

Periprosthetic joint infection is a major complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The intraoperative splash basin has been found to be a potential source of contamination. Although consensus recommendations against the use of splash basin have been made, splash basin use continues to be taught and utilized in practice. This study aims to in...

Aseptic loosening remains a common cause of failure in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). There is an increased interest in using uncemented TKA to reduce this complication. Radiolucencies (RLs) following uncemented TKA can be concerning. We report on the 9-year history of RLs in patients with uncemented TKA. Twenty-one patients (26 knees) were treated...

Patellar resurfacing in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains a controversial issue after more than 4 decades of TKA. Despite a growing body of evidence from registry data, resurfacing is still based largely on a surgeon's preference and training. The purpose of this study is to provide long-term outcomes for patellar resurfaced compared to when th...

The effects of psychological factors on the short-term outcome after uncomplicated total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have been described in several studies. However, the effects of mental factors on the midterm (5-year) outcome have not been described in the literature. This study was performed to examine the influence of pain catastrophizing, anxiety,...

The aim of the present study is to assess the long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of a proximal porous-coated, dual-offset, tapered titanium alloy uncemented stem at a minimum of 15 years of follow-up. We reviewed 210 total hip arthroplasties (in 193 patients) performed between 1996 and 1999 and followed prospectively in our database who r...

Understanding the most significant contributions to the cost of completing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is essential to optimize costs and meet funding standards. The objectives of this study are to determine whether cost distribution of THA and TKA follows the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule) and factors predictive o...

Periprosthetic femur fractures are a well-documented complication following direct anterior uncemented total hip arthroplasty. The purpose of this study is to compare the prevalence of postoperative periprosthetic femur fractures between 2 different femoral component designs used in direct anterior total hip arthroplasty. Beginning in February 2015...

Proper patellar tracking is essential for well-functioning total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Besides implanting components in the correct position and rotation, balancing parapatellar soft tissues is also important in aiding normal patellar tracking. Patellar maltracking during TKA can be improved by lateral retinacular release (LRR). We studied the i...
