Total knee revision in septic failure Epidemiology, timing and classification Prof. Paolo Cherubino Dipartimento di scienze ortopediche e traumatologiche Universitas Studiorum Insubriae VARESE
Epidemiology • The most commons causes of knee • arthroplasty revisions: • Infections (25.2%) • Mechanical failure (16.1%) The Epidemiology of Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty in the United States Kevin Bozic, MD. 2007
Epidemiology Risk factors • The systemic risk factors: • rheumatoid arthritis • diabetes • IRC • obesity • advanced age • debilitation • oral steroids • cancer/chemotherapic treatment • immunocompromised patients Simmons TD, Stern SH. Diagnosis and management of the infected total knee arthroplasty. Am J Knee Surg. 1996
Epidemiology Risk factors • The local risk factors are : • Previews knee surgery • Skin complications after the implant • psoriatic skin ulcers Simmons TD, Stern SH. Diagnosis and management of the infected total knee arthroplasty. Am J Knee Surg. 1996
Infection is actually, rare but serious problem in joints arthroplastic surgery

Clinical-temporal classification • Immediate: before 4 weeks • Early: between 4 wks to 2 years • Delayed: over 2 years • Occasional: positive culture in replacement Segawa et al. JBJS, 1999
Classification Coventry’s state Step I = Acute infection post-operative (within 3 months after) Stage II = delayed deep infection (3 to 24 months after) Stage III = late hematogenous infection (a distance of years) Step Zero = Operating contamination (positivity of at least 2 of 3 buffers intra-op) Coventry MB. Orthop Clin North Am. 1975 Oct;6(4):991-1003.

Therapeutic option • Choice of treatment is based on: • anatomical-clinical microbiological Accurate diagnostic grading
Replacement-Timing • CBC, VES and PCR • instrumental and clinical • Preoperative aspiration culture Clinical orthopaedic and related research n345, 1997
Therapeutic option • Arthroscopy • Toilette • Replacement • Arthrodesis • Resection - arthroplastic • Amputation Purpose of surgery • infection eradication • save joint function
IMMEDIATE INFECTION Toilette + Suppressive antibiotic therapy (at least 3 wks) ?
EARLY INFECTION open surgery or arthroscopic TOILETTE + Suppressive antibiotic therapy (at least 3 wks) ?
LATE INFECTION Remove implant and Surgical debridement age, general conditions, indication ARTHRODESIS REIMPLANT One stage Two stage
INFEZIONE TARDIVA Remove implant and Surgical debridement age, general conditions, indication ARTHRODESIS REIMPLANT One stage Two stage
Therapeutic option The two-stage exchange procedure has evolved as an effective treatment option. Clin Orthop Relat Res. 2007 Nov;464:164-78
Therapeutic option The best results of treatment of an infected TKR have been reported by Windsor et al in which no spacer was used between stages Windsor RE, Insall JN, Urs WK, Miller DV, Brause BD. Two-stage reimplantation for the salvage of total knee arthroplasty complicated by infection: further follow-up and refinement of indications. J Bone Joint Surg [Am] 1990.
Therapeutic option Treatment of TKA infection with a two-stage exchange had a significantly better outcome than debridement with retention of the prosthesis. Good results were obtained with two-stage revision of infected TKA International Orthopaedics (SICOT) 2008
Therapeutic option Two-stage reimplantation of an infected total knee arthroplasty using a static antibiotic-cement spacer achieved an infection control rate of 86% and improvement in the clinical results.
