Résumé
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has consistently demonstrated lower patient satisfaction compared to total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, prior investigations failed to account for the patients' demographic characteristics. This study aimed to conduct a comparative analysis of patient-reported outcomes between TKA and THA while adjusting for patient background. A total of 326 primary TKAs and 259 THAs conducted at a single center were assessed using Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores preoperatively and at 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Notably, TKA patients exhibited advanced age and higher body mass index (BMI) than their THA counterparts. To mitigate the impact of these differences, we employed propensity score-matched data, adjusting for background characteristics such as age, gender, BMI, and diagnosis. THA consistently demonstrated significantly superior WOMAC total, pain, and stiffness scores compared to TKA at 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Nevertheless, no statistically significant disparity in WOMAC physical function scores was observed between the two groups at 3 months and 1 year postoperatively in the matched data (3 months, p = 0.131; 1 year, p = 0.269). In contrast to earlier findings, our analysis of propensity score-matched data revealed no significant differences in WOMAC physical function scores between the TKA and THA groups at 3 months and 1 year postoperatively. The distinctive background factors observed in patients undergoing TKA and THA, notably advanced age and higher BMI, coupled with the delayed improvement timeline in TKA's WOMAC scores compared to that of THA, have the potential to impact patient-reported outcomes. Consequently, clinicians should be mindful of the potential impact of patient background on variations in patient-reported outcome measures following total joint arthroplasty.
