Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this multicentre prospective randomized controlled trial was to compare the survival rate and clinical outcome in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after MRI-based patient-specific instruments (PSI) and conventional instruments 5 years after initial surgery.
Methods
At a mean follow-up of 5.1 years (0.4), 163 patients (90.6%) with a mean age of 71.8 years (8.7) were analysed. A survival analysis with revision of the TKA as endpoint was performed. The Knee Society Score (KSS), evaluations on plain radiographs and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were obtained preoperatively and at each FU.
Results
At final follow-up, one TKA in the PSI- (1.2%) and 3 TKAs in the conventional group (3.8%) had undergone revision surgery (n.s.). No radiological abnormalities were noted at any time point. Postoperatively, the KSS and PROMs significantly improved within each group compared with the preoperative values. There were no clinically relevant differences for the KSS [PSI: 77.4, 9.8 (95% CI 75.0–79.7) vs. conventional: 77.3 10.5 (95% CI 74.9–79.8)] and the PROMs between both groups (n.s.) at 5 years follow-up.
Conclusion
There is still a lack of reliable data on the survival of TKA and clinical evidence, when using PSI for TKA. Longer follow-up studies are, therefore, needed.
