Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is a potent treatment for degenerative joint disorders. Bilateral total joint arthroplasty (BTJA) encompasses both bilateral total knee arthroplasty (BTKA) and bilateral total hip arthroplasty (BTHA). Both BTKA and BTHA can be performed as either a simultaneous procedure or a staged procedure. The goal of this study was to investigate trends in BTJA research, including pertinent authors, journals, countries, and papers. We also evaluated frequent keywords and topics to predict potential future study fields.
Articles published between 1982 and 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection of Clarivate Analytics. The search query included "hip" OR "knee" (Topic) AND "arthroplasty" OR "replacement" (Topic) AND "bilateral" OR "simultaneous" (Topic) AND 1992-2022 (Year published) AND Article (Document type). Metrics were imported for further analysis with Bibliometrix and VOSviewer.
A total of 736 articles associated with BTJA were retrieved, originating from 44 countries with the United States being the biggest contributor. Top institutions were Cornell University and Ewha Womans University. Kim YH was the most productive and impactful author. had the highest impact and the greatest number of articles and citations. Williams Russo had the most cited article. Co-occurrence visualizations highlighted predominant topics in the literature.
Since 1982, there has been a growing interest in BTJA research. The United States institutions have been the primary providers in global scholarly production. This bibliometric analysis identified previous, present, and emergent tendencies in BTJA with the goal of forecasting new potential hotspots.
全关节置换术（TJA）是治疗退行性关节疾病的有效方法。双侧全关节置换术（BTJA）包括双侧全膝关节置换术（BTKA）和双侧全髋关节置换术（BTHA）。BTKA和BTHA既可以同期进行，也可以分期进行。本研究的目的是调查BTJA研究的趋势，包括相关作者、期刊、国家和论文。我们还评估了常见关键词和主题，以预测未来潜在的研究领域。
从科睿唯安的Web of Science核心合集中检索1982年至2022年发表的文章。检索词包括“髋关节”或“膝关节”（主题）、“置换术”或“置换”（主题）、“双侧”或“同期”（主题）以及1992 - 2022年（发表年份）和“文章”（文献类型）。将数据导入Bibliometrix和VOSviewer进行进一步分析。
共检索到736篇与BTJA相关的文章，来自44个国家，美国是最大贡献国。顶尖机构是康奈尔大学和梨花女子大学。Kim YH是产出最多且最具影响力的作者。 影响力最高，文章和被引次数最多。Williams Russo的文章被引次数最多。共现可视化突出了文献中的主要主题。
自1982年以来，对BTJA研究的兴趣不断增加。美国机构一直是全球学术产出的主要贡献者。这项文献计量分析确定了BTJA过去、现在和新出现的趋势，目的是预测新出现的潜在热点。
