About this trial

Patients with isolated medial compartment arthritis of the knee are commonly treated with unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). In contrast with total knee arthroplasty (TKA), UKA shows a higher revision rate, which might be due to implant malpositioning and postoperative malalignment of the lower limb and incorrect soft tissue balancing. Nowadays, robotic-assisted UKA is used which improves accurate positioning, optimizes soft-tissue balancing and optimizes radiographic alignment of the implant. The potential benefit could be that this better alignment and positioning results in improved functional outcome and long-term survivorship. As there is a lack in long-term results, more research is needed to the long-term results of robotic-assisted UKA. As long-term results are related to early migration of the implant, investigating the early migration will have additional value to predict the long-term results of robotic-assisted UKA. In this study, we will investigate the early migration of a unicompartmental knee implant (Restoris MultiCompartmental Knee Implant System (Restoris MCK)) used in robotic-assisted UKA using model-based roentgen stereogrammetric analysis (mRSA) and we will relate the migration of this implant to the long-term results of the implant.

The primary objective is to assess the fixation and migration patterns of the Restoris MutliCompartmental Knee Implant System (Stryker) in vivo, using mRSA, over 5 years. Secondary objectives are to analyse survival, clinical scores and radiographic aspects of the Restoris MultiCompartmental Knee Implant System (Stryker) and to relate these to the migration patterns over 5 years.

A prospective cohort study with 5 years follow-up, in which 33 patients will be enrolled. Patients 18 years or older who require a unicompartmental knee prosthesis as a result of moderately disabling joint disease of the knee will be included. During surgery tantalum markers will be placed to be able to perform mRSA. Patients will be evaluated preoperatively, at 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years.

The main study parameters are the migration of the Restoris MCK of both the tibial and femoral component presented in x-, y- and z-direction. Secondary study parameters are the alignment, survival of the Restoris MCK, clinical scores and radiographic aspects (both x-ray and CT scan).

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Restoris MCK

    Device

    During this study the Restoris MCK will be placed using robotic-assisted surgery. At the time of surgery tantalum markers will be placed in the tibia and femur. With these markers migration of the prothesis can be measured over time using RSA radiographs.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Translation along x-, y- and z-axes

The translation of both the tibial and femoral component is expressed in mm and is given in 3 directions, namely along the x-, y- and z-axes.

Time frame
5 years after surgery at the following time points: 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years postoperative.
2

Rotation about x-, y- and z-axes

The rotation of both the tibial and femoral component is expressed in degrees and is given in 3 directions, namely about the x-, y- and z-axes.

Time frame
5 years after surgery at the following time points: 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years postoperative.

Secondary outcomes

1

Survival

Survival of the Restoris MCK is measured by registration of all complications and is expressed by numbers and percentages.

Time frame
5 years after surgery
2

NRS Pain

The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS) measures the amount of pain experienced in the past week during rest and activity. It is a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable).

Time frame
5 years after surgery at the following time points: preoperative, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years postoperative.
3

KSS

The Knee Society Score (KSS) is a questionnaire to rate the knee prosthesis function. A high score means a good function and a low score means a worse function. The score varies between 0 and 100.

Time frame
5 years after surgery at the following time points: preoperative, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years postoperative.
4

ROM

The Range of Motion (ROM) will be measured during the visit. ROM is the capability of a joint to go through its complete spectrum of movements and is expressed in degrees.

Time frame
5 years after surgery at the following time points: preoperative, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years postoperative.
