Abstract

Objectives: We investigated the effect of age on perioperative complications encountered in bilateral total knee arthroplasty operations performed at a single stage. Patients and methods: Thirty-nine patients with bilateral osteoarthritis underwent single-staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty. The patients were divided into two groups depending on the age, i.e. above (n=19; mean age 73.4 years; range 70 to 88 years) or below (n=20; mean age 63.1 years; range 52 to 68 years) 70 years. Coexisting diseases prior to surgery were recorded. The two groups were compared with regard to neurologic, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal complications; blood loss and transfusion requirements, and length of hospitalization. Results: The mean ages were significantly different between the two age groups (p=0.001). Blood loss and transfusion requirements did not differ significantly. Although the mean hospital stay was less in the younger group (mean 8.75 days versus 12.32 days), this did not reach significance (p>0.05). No perioperative complications were encountered in the younger group, whereas three patients (15.8%) and one patient (5.3%) developed neurologic and cardiovascular complications, respectively, and one patient died of acute renal failure in the older group (p=0.02). Conclusion: Age above 70 years is a significant risk factor for the development of perioperative complications in single-staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty operations.

Özet

Amaç: Tek seansta iki taraflı total diz artroplastisi uygulamalarında yaşın perioperatif komplikasyonlar üzerine etkisi araştırıldı. Hastalar ve yöntemler: İki taraflı diz osteoartriti nedeniyle tek seansta iki taraflı total diz artroplastisi uygulanan 39 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastalar, 70 yaş üzeri (grup 1: 19 hasta; ort. yaş 73.4; dağılım 70-88) ve altı (grup 2: 20 hasta; ort. yaş 63.1; dağılım 52-68) olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Olguların ameliyat öncesinde var olan hastalıkları kaydedildi. İki grup, nörolojik, kardiyovasküler, pulmoner ve gastrointestinal komplikasyonlar; kanama ve transfüzyon miktarı ve hastanede kalış süresi açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: İki grup arasında yaş açısından anlamlı farklılık bulundu (p=0.001). Kanama ve transfüzyon miktarları anlamlı farklılık göstermedi. Grup IF de hastanede kalış süresinin (ort. 8.75 gün ve 12.32 gün) daha kısa oldu¬ğu izlense de bu farklılık anlamlı değildi (p>0.05). Ameliyat öncesinde var olan hastalıklar açısından gruplar arasında fark bulunmadı. Grup IF de hiçbir hastada perioperatif komplikasyon görülmezken, grup Fde üç hastada (%15.8) nörolojik, bir hastada (%5.3) kardiyovasküler komplikasyonla karşılaşıldı (p=0.02). Grup Fde bir hasta akut böbrek yetmezliği sonucu kaybedildi. Sonuç: Hasta yaşının 70'in üzerinde olması, tek seansta iki taraflı total diz artroplastisi uygulamalarında perioperatif komplikasyon oranını artıran bir faktördür.
