    Which design tolerates rotational mismatch better in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: fixed or mobile bearing?
    (Acta Medica Belgica, 2022) Kılıç, Erden; Kilic, Erden; Kaya, Ozgur; Uysal, Ozgur Selim; Cay, Nurdan; Bozkurt, Murat
    Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is an effective method for the treatment of medial compartment osteoarthritis. However, appropriate surgical technique and optimum implant positioning are crucial for a satisfactory outcome. This study aimed to demonstrate the relation between the clinical scores and the alignment of the components in UKA. A total of 182 patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis and treated by UKA between January 2012 and January 2017 were enrolled in this study. Computed tomography (CT) was used to measure the rotation of components. Patients were divided into two groups according to the insert design. These groups were divided into three subgroups according to the angle of the tibia relative to the femur (TFRA) (A): TFRA 0 degrees to 5 degrees either internal or external rotation; (B): TFRA >5 degrees internal rotation, and (C): TFRA >5 degrees external rotation. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of age, body mass index (BMI) and follow-up period. KSS scores increased as the tibial component rotation (TCR) external rotation increased, but there was no correlation for WOMAC score. (P: 0,039 r: 0,207; P:0,347 r:0,095, respectively) Post-operative KSS and WOMAC scores decreased as TFRA external rotation was increased. (p: 0,001; p:0,001, respectively) No correlation has been observed between femoral component rotation (FCR) internal rotation and post-operative KSS and WOMAC scores. (p: 0,261; p: 0,502, respectively) Any mismatch between the components is better tolerated by mobile-bearing designs compared to fixed-bearing designs. Orthopedic surgeons should take care of rotational mismatch of components, not only the axial alignment of the components.

    Inconsistencies of the Disease Activity Assessment Tools for Psoriatic Arthritis: Challenges to Rheumatologists
    (Elsevier Masson s.r.l., 2022) Kılıç, Erden; Duruöz,M.T.; Nas,K.; Kılıç,E.; Sargın,B.; Kasman,S.A.; Tuncer,T.
    Objective: Currently, concerning the evaluation of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), there is no agreement on a standardized composite index for disease activity that includes all relevant domains. The present study sought to assess the rates of remission (REM)/low disease activity (LDA) and disease states [minimal disease activity (MDA), very low disease activity (VLDA)] as defined by diverse activity scales (DAPSA, DAS28-ESR) in an attempt to display discrepancies across these assessment tools for peripheral PsA. Methods: The study involved 758 patients (496 females, 262 males; mean age 47,1 years) with peripheral PsA who were registered to the Turkish League Against Rheumatism (TLAR) Network. The patients were assessed using the DAS28-ESR, DAPSA, MDA, and VLDA. The overall yield of each scale was assessed in identifying REM and LDA. The presence or absence of swollen joints was separately analysed. Results: The median disease duration was 4 years (range 0-44 years). According to DAPSA and DAS28-ESR, REM was achieved in 6.9% and 19.5% of the patients, respectively. The rates of MDA and VLDA were 16% and 2.9%, respectively. Despite the absence of swollen joints, a significant portion of patients were not considered to be in REM (296 (39.1%) patients with DAS28-ESR, 364 (48%) with DAPSA, and 394 (52%) with VLDA). Conclusion: Patients with peripheral PsA may be assigned to diverse disease activity levels when assessed with the DAS28-ESR, DAPSA, MDA and VLDA, which would inevitably have clinical implications. In patients with PsA a holistic approach seems to be necessary which includes other domains apart from joint involvement, such as skin involvement, enthesitis, spinal involvement, and patient-reported outcomes. © 2021 Société française de rhumatologie

    A Pilot Study of a Novel Fixation Technique for Fixation of Comminuted Patellar Fractures: Arthroscopic-Controlled Reduction and Circular External Fixation
    (Georg Thieme verlag Kg, 2020) Kılıç, Erden; Erdem, Yusuf; Kilic, Erden; Arsenishvili, Arsen; Kurklu, Mustafa
    Patella fractures represent for 0.5 to 1.5% of all bony injuries in adults. Open reduction and the modified tension-band technique is the most common surgical technique used for patellar fractures. The purpose of this study is to present the outcomes of 26 comminuted patellar fractures treated with circular external fixator (CEF) under arthroscopic control and discuss its potential advantages over conventional surgical methods. This retrospective study included 26 patients who had closed comminuted patellar fractures and treated by CEF under arthroscopic control between January 2002 and March 2016. All patients treated with this technique were involved to the study as a consecutive series. Patients with noncomminuted transverse fractures were excluded, because they were treated with a different technique. Of the 26 patients 22 were male, 4 were female with the mean age of 33.5 years (range, 16-56 years). Patients were followed for 20 to 28 months (mean, 22 months). The mean time to union and the duration of fixation with the CEF ring was 12 weeks (range, 6-15 weeks). The mean Lysholm's score was 45 (range, 35-58) at the 10th postoperative day, which increased to 51 (range, 40-68) at the end of the first postoperative month and increased to 95 (range, 90-100) 1 month after CEF ring removal. Minor pin tract infection by pin-skin irritation was observed in nine patients. In one patient, refracture occurred due to a fall 19 days after CEF removal. CEF appears to be a safe and effective treatment for comminuted patellar fractures with a high union rate and minimal complications. It is safe and effective, as it allows short hospital stay and avoids a second surgery for removal of the instrument. Early rehabilitation with full weight-bearing promotes rapid recovery and quick return to work. Patients do not have a large unaesthetic scar on the anterior of the knee.
