Background: While off-the-shelf cones and sleeves yield good results in AORI type 2 and 3 defects in revision knee surgery, massive longitudinal defects may require a proximal tibia replacement. To achieve the best anatomical as well as biomechanical reconstruction and preserve the tibial tuberosity, we developed custom-made metaphyseal sleeves (CMSs) to reconstruct massive defects with a hinge knee replacement. Methods: Between 2019 and 2022, 10 patients were treated in a single-center study. The indication for revision was aseptic loosening in five cases and periprosthetic joint infection in five cases. The mean number of previous revisions after the index operations was 7 (SD: 2; 4–12). A postoperative analysis was conducted to evaluate the functional outcome as well as the osteointegrative potential. Results: Implantation of the CMS in rTKA was carried out in all cases, with a mean operation time of 155 ± 48 (108–256) min. During the follow-up of 23 ± 7 (7–31) months, no CMS was revised and revisions due to other causes were conducted in five cases. Early radiographic evidence of osseointegration was recorded using a validated method. The postoperative OKS showed a significant increase (p < 0.001), with a mean score of 24 (SD: 4; range: 14–31). Conclusion: Custom-made metaphyseal sleeves show acceptable results in extreme cases. As custom-made components become more and more common, this treatment algorithm presents a viable alternative in complex rTKA. |
