Concurrent one-stage total knee and hip arthroplasty due to sequel of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore) 2017 November
RATIONALE: Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic systemic connective tissue disease. Total hip and knee arthroplasties are common major orthopaedic procedures worldwide.
PATIENT CONCERNS: To date, no studies have presented 1-stage concurrent total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We reported a case which is, to our knowledge, the first description of both THA and TKA in a patient with RA simultaneously.
DIAGNOSES: History of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), deterioration of signs and symptoms in history and physical examinations and radiography were lead to making decision for her surgery.
INTERVENTIONS: Concurrent total hip replacement and total knee arthroplasty were performed for patient.
OUTCOMES: After more than a 2-year follow-up time, the patient showed excellent clinical function and remained satisfied with the surgical outcome. Multiple simultaneous total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is reviewed in this article.
LESSONS: Joint arthroplasty surgeries can be performed in a simultaneous procedure to shorten disability and rehabilitation time with one anesthesia.
