Comparable clinical outcomes after conversion total knee arthroplasty following high tibial osteotomy and primary total knee arthroplasty: A matched cohort study
Introduction/Objectives
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) leads to pain and functional decline. While total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a definitive treatment, high tibial osteotomy (HTO) offers a joint-preserving alternative for younger patients with malalignment. However, patients with HTO may eventually require conversion to TKA. This study aimed to compare clinical, functional, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of patients undergoing TKA after a prior medial opening wedge HTO to a matched cohort who had a primary TKA, with follow-up at ≥12 months.
Methods
This retrospective cohort study used data from The Knee Institute, Sydney, Australia. Patients converted from HTO to TKA were matched 1:1 to primary TKA patients based on age, sex, surgeon, body mass index, medial compartment OA, and approximate year of surgery. Inclusion criteria were TKA between 2011 and 2023, prior HTO in the same knee, both procedures by one of three fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeons; and ≥ one year of follow-up. Data collected included the Oxford Knee Score (OKS), the Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey (VR-12), range of motion (ROM), hospital stay, and the Caton–Deschamps index (CDI). Fifty-one converted TKA patients were matched. Statistical analysis used paired t-tests, Mann–Whitney U, chi-square, and Fisher’s exact tests.
Results
Both groups showed statistically significant postoperative improvements in the OKS and the VR-12 physical scores (p < 0.01), with no statistically significant difference between groups. ROM improved in both groups; flexion was slightly higher in the primary TKA group but not statistically significant. Patella baja was more frequent in the HTO-to TKA group; however, this was not statistically significant (p = 0.054). Both groups had a median hospital stay of 5 days; however, the HTO-to-TKA group demonstrated a statistically significant distribution shift toward longer stays.
Conclusion
Conversion from HTO to TKA yields comparable clinical and functional outcomes to primary TKA. These findings emphasize the effectiveness of TKA after HTO and the importance of careful preoperative planning in this patient population.
