Abstract
- Abstract Background Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious complication after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Although some risk factors of PJI were well studied, the association between trauma and PJI remains unknown in revision patients. Materials and methods Between 2015 and 2018, a total of 71 patients with trauma history before revisions (trauma cohort) were propensity score matched (PSM) at a ratio of 1 to 5 with a control cohort of revision patients without a history of trauma. Then, the cumulative incidence rate of PJI within 3 years after operation between the two groups was compared. The secondary endpoints were aseptic revisions within 3 postoperative years, complications up to 30 postoperative days, and readmission up to 90 days. During a minimal 3-year follow-up, the survival was comparatively analyzed between the trauma cohort and the control cohort. Results The cumulative incidence of PJI was 40.85% in patients with trauma history against 27.04% in the controls (P = 0.02). Correspondingly, the cumulative incidence of aseptic re-revisions was 12.68% in patients with trauma history compared with 5.07% in the control cohort (P = 0.028). Cox regression revealed that trauma history was a risk factor of PJI (HR, 1.533 [95%CI, (1.019,2.306)]; P = 0.04) and aseptic re-revisions (HR, 3.285 [95%CI, (1.790,6.028)]; P
