Uncemented Total Knee Arthroplasty is on the Rise. A Report of Patient Demographics and Short-Term Outcomes From the Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Collaborative Quality Initiative.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cemented total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the gold standard treatment for osteoarthritis, but uncemented TKA offers benefits like improved osseointegration and reduced complications from cement debris. This study aimed to investigate (1) if there has been a rise in uncemented TKA from 2017 to 2021 and (2) if there are differences in early complications between cemented and uncemented TKA.

Methods

A retrospective data review was performed on the Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Collaborative Quality Initiative database of TKA patients from 2017 to 2021 at 6 hospitals. Patients with revision or partial knee arthroplasty were excluded. Patients were divided into 2 groups: uncemented and cemented. Hybrid and reverse hybrid fixation data were collected for incidence, but
