Abstract:[Objective] To explore the short-term clinical outcomes of rotating hinged total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for end-stage Char- cot joint of the knee. [Methods] From January 2013 to January 2020, 11 patients with Charcot arthropathy of the knee were treated by rotat- ing hinged total knee arthroplasty. The documents regarding to perioperative period, follow-up and radiographs were summarized. [Results] All the patients had operation completed successfully without neurovascular injuries and other serious complications. All patients were fol- lowed up for 18~84 months, with an average of (38.73±13.51) months. The AKSS clinical score and functional score, as well as SF-36 score and range of motion (ROM) significantly improved at the latest follow-up compared with those before operation (P<0.05) . Radiographically, the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle significantly increased, whereas the medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) significantly decreased at the latest follow up compared with those preoperatively (P<0.05) , however, the posterior tibial slope (PTS) remained unchanged (P>0.05) . By the time of last follow-up, the prostheses were in good position with no loosening and no periprosthetic fractures in anyone of them. [Conclusion] The rotating hinged total knee arthroplasty does achieve sound short-term clinical outcomes for treatment of end-stage knee neuro- arthropathy, but its long-term outcome needs further follow-up.
