A single-centre experience of 29 total ankle replacement in haemophiliac patients: Therapeutic management, factor consumption and cost. Haemophilia 2024; 30:204-213. [PMID: 38082545 DOI: 10.1111/hae.14909] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with haemophilia, repeated bleeding in large joints leads to chronic haemophilic arthropathy, a rare disease that can be managed surgically with ankle arthrodesis or with total ankle replacement (TAR). TAR has been reported to provide good surgical results in the medium/long-term and allow preservation of joint mobility but the medical therapeutic management of the patients has not been described. AIM To describe the medical therapeutic management of TAR. METHODS All patients with haemophilia A/B, with haemophilic ankle arthropathy, and who underwent TAR between April 2006 and October 2019 were retrospectively included. Factor consumption, perioperative and early complications, volume of blood lost, and orthopaedic data were collected. RESULTS A total of 25 patients underwent 29 TAR (mean age was 44.7 years [range: 26-65]). In the 17 patients with HA without history of anti-FVIII inhibitor, the mean ± SD consumption the day of surgery was 116 ± 16 UI/kg when clotting factors were administered by continuous infusion, 106 ± 13 UI/kg when SHL factors were administered by bolus infusion, and 75 ± 22 UI/kg when EHL factors were administered by bolus infusion. During hospitalisation, the mean factor cost was €38,073 (83.7% of the total cost of surgery). Mean blood loss was significantly lower in patients treated with tranexamic acid (164 mL, range: 40-300) than in those not (300 mL, range: 70-800; p = .01). Six patients had haematoma. The 10-year survival free of any prosthesis removal/arthrodesis was estimated to be 92.2% (95% CI [83; 100]). CONCLUSION The medical therapeutic management of TAR is complex, carried out by a multidisciplinary team but effective in avoiding the occurrence of complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited literature comparing the publications on ankle arthrodesis (AA) and total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) in the setting of hemophilic arthropathy. Our objective is to systematically review the existing literature and to assess ankle arthroplasty as an alternative to ankle arthrodesis in this patient population. METHODS This systematic review was conducted and presented according to the PRISMA statement standards. A search was conducted on March 7-10, 2023, using MEDLINE (via PubMed), Embase, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Studies. This search was restricted to full-text human studies published in English, and articles were screened by 2 masked reviewers. Systematic reviews, case reports with less than 3 subjects, letters to the editor, and conference abstracts were excluded. Two independent reviewers rated study quality using the MINORS tool. RESULTS Twenty-one of 1226 studies were included in this review. Thirteen articles reviewed the outcomes associated with AA in hemophilic arthropathy whereas 10 reviewed the outcomes associated with TAA. Two of our studies were comparative and reviewed the outcomes of both AA and TAA. Additionally, 3 included studies were prospective. Studies showed that the degree of improvement in American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society hindfoot-ankle score, visual analog scale pain scores, and the mental and physical component summary scores of the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey were similar for both surgeries. Complication rates were also similar between the 2 surgeries. Additionally, studies showed a significant improvement in ROM after TAA. CONCLUSION Although the level of evidence in this review varies and results should be interpreted with caution, the current literature suggests similar clinical outcomes and complication rates between TAA and AA in this patient population.

The role of point-of-Care Musculoskeletal Ultrasound for Routine Joint evaluation and management in the Hemophilia Clinic - A Real World Experience. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:1111. [PMID: 36539778 PMCID: PMC9768915 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-06042-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) for point-of-care (POC) evaluation of hemophilic arthropathy is growing rapidly. However, the extent to which MSKUS influences clinical treatment decisions is unknown. METHODS We conducted a three-year, prospective, multi-center study at three hemophilia treatment centers in the United States to evaluate the utilization of POC-MSKUS for routine clinical decision-making in adult persons with hemophilic arthropathy. Bilateral elbows, knees and ankles were assessed clinically [Hemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS)] and with POC-MSKUS by the Joint TissueActivity and Damage Exam (JADE) protocol at baseline and approximately annually for two additional times. Treatment decisions, including physical therapy (PT) and "medical" (joint injections/aspirations, referrals to orthopedics, changes/adjustments of hemostatic plans, and use of oral anti-inflammatory medications) were recorded in relation to POC-MSKUS. RESULTS Forty-four persons [median age 37 years (IQR 29, 51)], mostly with severe Hemophilia A on clotting factor prophylaxis, completed 129 visits, yielding 792 joint exams by POC-MSKUS and HJHS [median at baseline 27 (IQR 18, 42)] over a median follow up of 584 days (range: 363 to 1072). Among 157 management decisions, 70% were related to PT plans (n = 110) and 30% were "medical". Point-of-care MSKUS influenced 47/110 (43%) PT plans, mostly informing treatment of specific arthropathic joints (45/47 plans) in patients with high HJHS. Physical therapy plans influenced by POC-MSKUS directed more manual therapy/therapeutic exercises, while plans based on physical exam were focused more on global exercises and wellness. Treatment decisions were mostly based on the identification of specific musculoskeletal abnormalities visualized by POC-MSKUS. Of note 20/47 (43%) POC-MSKUS plans included de-escalation strategies, thereby reducing exercise intensity, mostly for joint instability and subclinical hemarthroses. Point-of-care MSKUS also informed 68% (32/47) of "medical" decisions, surprisingly mostly for injections/aspirations and referrals to orthopedics, and not for adjustments of hemostatic treatment. Although not formally studied, ultrasound images were used frequently for patient education. CONCLUSION Routine joint evaluations with POC-MSKUS resulted in few changes regarding medical management decisions but had a profound effect on the formulation of PT plans. Based on these findings, new studies are essential to determine the benefit of MSKUS-informed management plans on joint health outcomes.

The Profile of Markers of Bone Turnover, Inflammation and Extracellular Neutrophil Traps on Bone Mass in Haemophilia and the Development of Haemophilic Arthropathy. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11164711. [PMID: 36012950 PMCID: PMC9410524 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11164711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The aim of the study is to evaluate selected biomarkers of bone turnover, inflammation, neutrophil trap and factors predisposing haemophiliacs to bone loss, and to analyse their relationship with clinical features, treatment and complications. Methods: The levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6); citrullinated histone (CH3); osteocalcin (BGLAP); bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP); N-terminal procollagen type I propeptide (P1NP); and C-terminal collagen type I telopeptide (C1CP) were examined in 60 patients with haemophilia. Results: The cut-off value for BGLAP is 26.41 ng/mL, and 929.7 pg/mL for CH3. There is a statistically significant difference between BGLAP, BALP, C1CP and CH3 concentrations, depending on the prophylaxis used. The median concentration of BGLAP in patients taking the factor on demand is 28.0 ng/mL, BALP 322.5 U/L, C1CP 191.2 ng/mL and CH3 1114.4 pg/mL. In patients taking recombinant coagulation factor VIII/IX as prophylaxis of bleeding, the median BGLAP concentrations are 35.9 ng/mL, BALP 280.9 U/L, C1CP 161.6 ng/mL and CH3 952.5 pg/mL. BGLAP and BALP concentrations are dependent on the development of haemophilic arthropathic. Conclusions: The concentrations of selected markers of bone turnover and NETs may help to identify patients at particular risk of developing haemophilic arthropathy and bone metabolic turnover abnormalities.

Clinical and patient reported outcome in total ankle replacement compared to ankle fusion in end-stage haemophilic arthropathy. Haemophilia 2021; 27:e739-e746. [PMID: 34624930 DOI: 10.1111/hae.14429] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankle arthropathy is a frequent complication of haemophilia, reducing the patients' quality of life. Despite intensive conservative therapy, end-stage arthropathy requires surgical treatment, either by ankle fusion (AF) or total ankle replacement (TAR). METHODS Eleven consecutive AFs were performed in nine patients and 11 TARs were implemented in 10 patients. Outcomes were assessed clinically by AOFAS score and radiologically by the Pettersson and Gilbert scores. RESULTS The mean age of the patients in these groups were 35.7 years and 49.4 years, respectively. Of the 11 ankles that underwent fusion, 10 showed bony consolidation not later than 12 weeks after surgery, whereas one still showed non-union after 6 months. VAS pain scores decreased significantly in both groups. Mean AOFAS scores also improved significantly, from 28.1 before to 80.3 after AF and from 21.5 before to 68.0 after ankle replacement. No perioperative complications were observed in either group. Late deep infection was observed in two patients that underwent TAR, which required removal of the implant. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that both AF and TAR result in significantly reduced pain in patients with haemophilia with end-stage haemophilic arthropathy. While TAR is associated with a higher risk of deep infection and minimal persistent pain, it preserves the pre-operative range of motion. AF on the other hand is associated with the risk of non-union and a longer post-operative recovery period but results in greater pain reduction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Arthropathy is the characteristic injury of hemophilia, primarily occurring in the elbows, knees, and ankles. The aim of this review is a teaching approach devoted to hemophilia treaters in under-development countries. AREAS COVERED Current major challenges include the absence of the following therapeutic tools for all people with hemophilia (PWH) worldwide: hematological prophylaxis; well-coordinated multidisciplinary teams in specialized centers; joint aspiration of acute hemarthrosis; point-of-care ultrasonography (POC-US); exercise; treatment of synovitis by means of radiosynovectomy; treatment of mild hemophilic arthropathy with analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents, and rehabilitation medicine; intra-articular injections of corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid, platelet-rich plasma, and mesenchymal stem cells; and treatment of severe hemophilic arthropathy by surgical treatment. The future scenario in under-development countries should include all the aforementioned treatment tools plus the possibility of performing total joint arthroplasty in PWH with inhibitors; concomitant use of bypassing agents with emicizumab for PWH with inhibitors undergoing orthopedic surgery; and telemedicine. EXPERT OPINION Primary hematological prophylaxis is now the gold standard for the management of hemophilia. Acute hemarthrosis needs intense hematological management and articular aspiration; the articular situation should be scrutinized by POC-US. Synovitis can be controlled by radiosynovectomy. In cases of severe articular degeneration, surgical procedures might be required.
