OUTCOMES FOLLOWING PRIMARY HIP AND KNEE ARTHROPLASTY IN PATIENTS WITH PAGET'S DISEASE OF THE BONE
2018
Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is the second most common metabolic bone disease. Osteoarthritis (OA) affects one-third of patients with PDB. The incidence of THR (total hip replacement) and TKR (total knee replacement) is 3.1- and 1.7-fold higher in PDB patients compared to non-affected age-matched controls. No large studies or joint registry reports exist describing the outcomes following THR or TKR in patients with PDB.The objectives of this study were to investigate the outcomes following THR and TKR in patients with PDB using national joint registry data. 144 THR and 43 TKR were identified using the Scottish Arthroplasty Project from 1996–2013.For THR, the most common early post-operative surgical complications were haematoma formation (1.4%), and surgical site infection (1.4%). The absolute incidence during follow-up of dislocation was 2.8%, and revision hip arthroplasty was performed in 2.8% of cases. Implant survival of the primary prosthesis was 96.3% (CI: 92.8 – 99.8) at 10-years, and patient surv...
