Introduction

The Oxford Unicompartmental Knee Replacement (OUKA) is the most popular unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) in the New Zealand Joint Registry with the majority utilising cementless fixation. We report the 10-year radiological outcomes.

Methods

This is a prospective observational study. All patients undergoing a cementless OUKA between May 2005 and April 2011 were enrolled. There were no exclusions due to age, gender, body mass index or reduced bone density.

All knees underwent fluoroscopic screening achieving true anteroposterior (AP) and lateral images for radiographic assessment. AP assessment for the presence of radiolucent lines and coronal alignment of the tibial and femoral components used Inteliviewer radiographic software. The lateral view was assessed for lucencies as well as sagittal alignment.

Cementless fixation is an alternative to cemented unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR), with several advantages over cementation. This study reports on the 15-year survival and 10-year clinical outcomes of the cementless Oxford unicompartmental knee replacement (OUKR).

This prospective study describes the clinical outcomes and survival of first 693 consecutive cementless medial OUKRs implanted in New Zealand.

The sixteen-year survival was 89.2%, with forty-six knees being revised. The commonest reason for revision was progression of arthritis, which occurred in twenty-three knees, followed by primary dislocation of the bearing, which occurred in nine knees. There were two bearing dislocations secondary to trauma and a ruptured ACL, and two tibial plateau fractures. There were four revisions for polyethylene wear. There were four revisions for aseptic tibial loosening, and one revision for impingement secondary to overhang of the tibial component. There was only one revision for deep infection and one revision where the indication was not stated. The mean OKS improved from 23.3 (7.4 SD) to 40.59 (SD 6.8) at a mean follow-up of sixteen years.

In conclusion, the cementless OUKR is a safe and reproducible procedure with excellent sixteen-year survival and clinical outcomes.

Aim

To describe the epidemiology, clinical features and outcomes of native joint septic arthritis in adults admitted to Middlemore Hospital in Auckland, New Zealand.

Method

Single-centre retrospective cohort study from 2009 to 2014. Patients ≥16 years of age were identified using ICD-10AM coding data. Electronic records were reviewed for demographic, clinical, laboratory, treatment and outcome data. Total and hemi-arthroplasty infections were excluded.
