We retrospectively reviewed 197 patients who underwent reconstruction with a megaprosthesis of the lower extremity. A cobalt-chrome alloy system was used in 77 patients and a titanium alloy system in 120 patients. The overall infection rate was 20.8% (n = 41). Separated into the 2 prosthesis systems used, an infection rate of 31.2% was found in the patients with a cobalt-chrome-alloy prosthesis and 14.2% in the titanium alloy group of patients (P < .01). Early infection occurred in 5.1% (n = 10) and late infection in 15.7% (n = 31). Selecting 2 identical subgroups for further analysis, the cobalt-chrome alloy prostheses were associated with a significantly higher infection rate, with 5 infections of 26 megaprostheses vs 1 infection of 36 titanium megaprostheses (P < .05).
我们回顾性分析了197例行下肢大假体重建术的患者。其中77例患者使用钴铬合金系统,120例患者使用钛合金系统。总体感染率为20.8%(n = 41)。按所使用的两种假体系统分类,钴铬合金假体组患者的感染率为31.2%,钛合金假体组患者的感染率为14.2%(P < 0.01)。早期感染发生率为5.1%(n = 10),晚期感染发生率为15.7%(n = 31)。选取两个相同的亚组进行进一步分析,钴铬合金假体的感染率显著更高,26个大假体中有5例感染,而36个钛制大假体中有1例感染(P < 0.05)。
