Simultaneous and staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty

WT Hardaker, WS Ogden, RE Musgrave and JL Goldner

Bilateral total knee arthroplasties were performed in twenty-six patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Twelve had simultaneous operations bilaterally and fourteen had separate, staged procedures. The improvement in the two groups of patients was statistically comparable to the relief of pain and the over-all restoration of function. There were no intraoperative complications. The postoperative morbidity was minimum and was not predominant in either group. Costs were greatly increased with the staged procedure.
