Leicester University Hospitals, Stanmore (UNITED KINGDOM)<br />

We present the operative findings of 201 cases of revised Unicompartmental knee<br />

replacements from the Trent and Wales Arthroplasty Register from 1990 to 2008.<br />

This study demonstrates the common modes of failure, primary and revision<br />

arthroplasty systems using age and sex based criteria. Other data includes trends in<br />

augmentation and bone grafting at revision surgery. Our study demonstrates a crude<br />

revision rate of 14% and average time to revision from Primary to Revison at 4 years<br />

in our cohort. The commonest reasons for failure were Aseptic Loosening and<br />

Polyethylene. Other findings include a significant difference in average time to<br />

revision in male patients in our gender based analysis.<br />
