Have the frequency of and reasons for revision total knee arthroplasty changed since 2000? Comparison of two cohorts from the same hospital: 255 cases (2013-2016) and 68 cases (1991-1998).

Introduction: The number of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revisions is expected to increase 601% in the United States between 2005 and 2030. This type of information is not available in France, and the last national study on this topic was done in 2000. This led us to perform a comparative study to determine if 1) the frequency of TKA revisions has increased and 2) the reasons for reoperation have changed relative to data gathered in 2000 at a single hospital in France.
