    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • The Walldius arthroplasty is a salvage procedure for knee joint issues.
    • Salvage operations are crucial when primary treatments fail.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term outcomes of Walldius arthroplasty.
    • To assess its efficacy as an alternative to knee arthrodesis.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 83 Walldius arthroplasties performed between 1966-1972.
    • Independent review including interviews, examinations, and clinical record inspection.

    Main Results:

    • 81% (67/83) of Walldius arthroplasties were successful.
    • Low complication rates: 2.4% primary infection, 2.4% delayed infection, 3.6% major loosening.

  • Acrylic cement used in only 8 cases.

    • Conclusions:

    • Walldius arthroplasty shows a high success rate and acceptable complication profile.
    • It is a justifiable alternative to primary knee arthrodesis.
