Simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty (simBTKA) remains controversial, especially in obese patients. Therefore, this retrospective study compared six month perioperative complications in 313 simBTKA patients. Comparison groups included 139 non-obese patients (BMI < 30), 61 obese patients (BMI = 30-35) and 48 severely obese patients (BMI > 35). Increased BMI was associated with longer tourniquet and surgical times (p < 0.001). However, no differences were found for transfusion (p = 0.288), deep infection (p = 0.971), pulmonary embolism (p = 0.454), or deep vein thrombosis (p = 0.670). Increased BMI was, therefore, not associated with greater post-operative complications and should not necessarily contraindicate simBTKA.
同期双侧全膝关节置换术(simBTKA)仍存在争议,尤其是在肥胖患者中。因此,这项回顾性研究比较了313例simBTKA患者的围手术期六个月并发症情况。比较组包括139例非肥胖患者(BMI < 30)、61例肥胖患者(BMI = 30 - 35)和48例重度肥胖患者(BMI > 35)。BMI的增加与止血带使用时间和手术时间延长相关(p < 0.001)。然而,在输血(p = 0.288)、深部感染(p = 0.971)、肺栓塞(p = 0.454)或深静脉血栓形成(p = 0.670)方面未发现差异。因此,BMI增加与术后并发症增加无关,不一定是simBTKA的禁忌证。
