Abstract

Introduction

The aim of this study was to determine the outcome parameters of revision arthroplasties for periprosthetic femoral fractures (PPFF) with a particular attention to quality of life (QoL) and mobility.

Materials and methods

Retrospective single-center study of PPFF with loose implants that underwent revision arthroplasty. Depending on individual patient characteristics, either an uncemented or cemented revision stem was chosen. Data collection included demographics, complications, clinical course and outcome parameters. Follow-up took place at least one year postoperatively.

Results

Between 2008 and 2016, 43 patients could be included. Most patients (63%) were able to walk independently or with a walking aid after one year and amongst the surveyed patients 77% were able to reside at home. Concerning the QoL assessment, a high index of 0.8 ± 0.1 has been reached after one year. Mortality pointed out to be 9% after one year and 28% in general.

Conclusion

The treatment of PPFF remains challenging. Although complication rates and mortality are high in this frail collective of geriatric patients, revision arthroplasty leads to good postoperative results regarding mobility and quality of life.
