Comparison of cementless twin-peg, cemented twin-peg and cemented single-peg femoral component migration after medial unicompartmental knee replacement: a 5-year randomized RSA study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The component design and fixation method of joint arthroplasty may affect component migration and survival. The aim of this study was to compare fixation of cementless twin-peg (CLTP), cemented twin-peg (CTP) and cemented single-peg (CSP) femoral components of medial unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR).

Methods

Eighty patients (mean age = 63 years, 48 males) with medial knee osteoarthritis were randomized in three ways to CLTP (n = 25), CTP (n = 26) or CSP (n = 29) femoral UKR components. The patients were followed 5 years postoperatively with RSA, bone mineral density (BMD), PROMs and radiological evaluation of radiolucent lines (RLL), femoral component flexion angle and complications.

Results

At the 5-year follow-up, femoral component total translatio
