There is a paucity of data on the outcomes of distal femoral replacements (DFRs) in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) periprosthetic fractures. We sought to characterize these patients’ survivorship free from rerevision.
We retrospectively identified 49 patients, including 34 after primary TKA (primary cohort), 9 after revision TKA, and 6 conversions for failed open reduction and internal fixation (revision cohort) that underwent DFR for a periprosthetic femur fracture. The mean age was 76 years, and 40 patients (82%) were female. The mean follow-up was 4 years. Femoral fixation included 44 cemented stems (90%) and 5 cementless stems (10%). Survivorship free from rerevision was characterized by the Kaplan–Meier method; cox proportional regression was used to analyze the risk factors for rerevision.
Survivorship free from any rerevision at 5 years in the primary and revision cohort was 93% and 18%, respectively. The revision cohort had a 5.3× higher risk of re-revision (P = .008). Survivorship free from re-revision for aseptic loosening at 5 years in the primary and revision cohort was 93% and 53%, respectively. Two of the 3 patients with cementless stems in the primary cohort underwent early rerevision for aseptic loosening, but patients with prior primary TKAs treated with cemented femoral fixation (n = 31) had a 97% 5-year survivorship free from re-revision.
Patients with periprosthetic fractures around prior primary TKAs treated with DFRs with cemented femoral fixation had a 97% 5-year survivorship free from any re-revision. DFRs for periprosthetic femur fractures around revision TKAs or conversions of failed open reduction and internal fixations have a 5× increased risk of rerevision.
