Long-term Outcomes of MCP Surface Replacement Arthroplasty in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Surface replacement arthroplasty (SRA) can be used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affecting the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint. The authors of this study sought to investigate the outcomes of MCP SRA in patients with RA. Methods: Retrospective review of medical records and an institutional joint registry were used to gather data on 80 MCP SRAs performed in 27 patients with RA. Data collected included demographics, SRA revisions, reoperations, complications, pain, and MCP arc of motion. Results: The mean postoperative follow-up was 9.5 years (range, 2.1-20.5 years), with all SRAs achieving at least 2 years of follow-up. Thirteen digits (16%) underwent revision arthroplasty, and 29 (36%) required reoperation. The 5-, 10-, 15-, and 20-year rates of survival from implant revision were 95%, 85%, 80%, and 69%, respectively. The 5-, 10-, 15-, and 20-year rates of survival from overall reoperation were 80%, 65%, 55%, and 46%, respectively. Metacarpophalangeal joint arc of motion, grip strength, and pain levels significantly improved following surgery. Conclusions: Metacarpophalangeal SRA can offer benefit to patients with RA for improvement in function and pain. High overall reoperation rates remain concerning; however, most do not involve arthroplasty revision.

Project description:BackgroundOutcomes after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) combined with additive techniques (augmentation of bone strength, control of soft-tissue balance, adjustment of the loading axis) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis were evaluated after intermediate to long-term follow-up. The influences of biologic treatment on the outcomes after TAA were also evaluated.MethodsWe performed a retrospective observational study involving 50 ankles (44 patients) that underwent TAA for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The mean duration of follow-up was 7.1 years. Clinical outcomes were evaluated with use of the Japanese Society for Surgery of the Foot (JSSF) scale score and a postoperative self-administered foot-evaluation questionnaire (SAFE-Q). Radiographic findings were evaluated as well. These parameters also were compared between patients managed with and without biologic treatment.ResultsThis procedure significantly improved the clinical scores of the JSSF rheumatoid arthritis foot and ankle scale (p < 0.0001). Forty-eight of the 50 ankles had no revision TAA surgery. Subsidence of the talar component was seen in 8 ankles (6 in the biologic treatment group and 2 in the non-biologic treatment group); 2 of these ankles (both in the biologic treatment group) underwent revision TAA. The social functioning score of the SAFE-Q scale at the time of the latest follow-up was significantly higher in the biologic treatment group (p = 0.0079). The dosage of prednisolone (p = 0.0003), rate of usage of prednisolone (p = 0.0001), and disease-activity score (p < 0.01) at the time of the latest follow-up were all significantly lower in the biologic treatment group.ConclusionsTAA is recommended for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis if disease control, augmentation of bone strength, control of soft-tissue balance, and adjustment of the loading axis are taken into account. The prevention of talar component subsidence remains a challenge in patients with the combination of subtalar fusion, rheumatoid arthritis, and higher social activity levels.Level of evidenceTherapeutic Level III.

Project description:PurposeThe purpose of this retrospective study is to clarify the difference in plantar pressure distribution during walking and related patient-based outcomes between forefoot joint-preserving arthroplasty and resection-replacement arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).MethodsFour groups of patients were recruited. Group1 included 22 feet of 11 healthy controls (age 48.6 years), Group2 included 36 feet of 28 RA patients with deformed non-operated feet (age 64.8 years, Disease activity score assessing 28 joints with CRP [DAS28-CRP] 2.3), Group3 included 27 feet of 20 RA patients with metatarsal head resection-replacement arthroplasty (age 60.7 years, post-operative duration 5.6 years, DAS28-CRP 2.4), and Group4 included 34 feet of 29 RA patients with metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint-preserving arthroplasty (age 64.6 years, post-operative duration 3.2 years, DAS28-CRP 2.3). Patients were cross-sectionally examined by F-SCAN II to evaluate walking plantar pressure, and the self-administered foot evaluation questionnaire (SAFE-Q). Twenty joint-preserving arthroplasty feet were longitudinally examined at both pre- and post-operation.ResultsIn the 1st MTP joint, Group4 showed higher pressure distribution (13.7%) than Group2 (8.0%) and Group3 (6.7%) (P<0.001). In the 2nd-3rd MTP joint, Group4 showed lower pressure distribution (9.0%) than Group2 (14.5%) (P<0.001) and Group3 (11.5%) (P<0.05). On longitudinal analysis, Group4 showed increased 1st MTP joint pressure (8.5% vs. 14.7%; P<0.001) and decreased 2nd-3rd MTP joint pressure (15.2% vs. 10.7%; P<0.01) distribution. In the SAFE-Q subscale scores, Group4 showed higher scores than Group3 in pain and pain-related scores (84.1 vs. 71.7; P<0.01) and in shoe-related scores (62.5 vs. 43.1; P<0.01).ConclusionsJoint-preserving arthroplasty resulted in higher 1st MTP joint and lower 2nd-3rd MTP joint pressures than resection-replacement arthroplasty, which were associated with better patient-based outcomes.
