Popis: We performed 199 total knee arthroplasties (TKA) in 149 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis from 1982 to 1994. From 1982 we used kinematic or mark 2 prostheses for TKA, KOM or KC-1 (ceramic type) from 1984, PCA from 1985, MG-1 from 1986 and PFC since 1992.We shidied 8 revision TKA (4%) performed in 8 patients with failed knees. The mean interval from initial to revision TKA was 5.8 years (range; 4.5 to 9.3 years). The most common reasons for failure were tibial component sinking due to technical failure, tibial component sinking due to bone weakness with RA, breakage of metal back patella component (MG-1) and loosening due to arthritis mutilans. When we used cementless porous coating total knee arthroplasty, more and more bone source was lost revision.
