Evaluation of Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis Receiving a Prosthesis (Chondrolike)
Association Between Preoperative Clinical Evaluation, Radiological Classifications and Histopathology in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis Receiving a Prosthesis
Patients with osteoarthritis of the knee undergo visible joint changes in radiology and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tests, but also clinically and histologically. The area of greatest change is at the subchondral/cartilage bone junction.
Investigators will determine the association between preoperative clinical evaluation (IKDC and Womac scores), radiological classifications and histopathology.
In addition, the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis is being given major interest, and inflammation is closely linked with vascularization. It was recently demonstrated that dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) could identify the subchondral bone marrow vascularization changes occurring in osteoarthritis in animals.
These changes appeared before cartilage lesions were visible and were correlated with osteoarthritis severity. Thus the opportunity to obtain an objective assessment of bone vascularization in non-invasive conditions in humans might help better understanding osteoarthritis pathophysiology and finding new biomarkers. Investigators hypothesized that, as in animals, DCE-MRI has the ability to identify subchondral bone marrow vascularization changes in human osteoarthritis.

Knee osteoarthritis
Patients with knee osteoarthritis, classified Kellgren-Lawrence 3 or 4, with asymmetric femorotibial joint space narrowing that will follow a surgery for a prosthetic replacement of the knee wil follow the following interventions:
|
Functional scores for the pathological joint will be determined
Patients will be examined using a 3T MR scanner (MR 750W, General Electrics, Milwaukee, WI) with a dedicated knee coil.
Subchondral bone marrow vascularization in medial and lateral femorotibial compartments will be assessed with DCE-MRI and lesions will be graded on MR images.
Upper tibial resection pieces will be collected and the vascularization will be determined according to the OARSI score

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Score IKDC (International Knee Documentation Committee) for functional evaluation of the articulation
Time Frame: At inclusion
|
The IKDC Questionnaire is a subjective scale that provides patients with an overall function score. The questionnaire looks at 3 categories: symptoms, sports activity, and knee function. The symptoms subscale helps to evaluate things such as pain, stiffness, swelling and giving-way of the knee. Meanwhile, the sports activity subscale focuses on functions like going up and down the stairs, rising from a chair, squatting and jumping. The knee function subscale asks patients one simple question: how is their knee at present versus how was their knee prior to injury? Scores are obtained by summing the individual items, then transforming the crude total to a scaled number that ranges from 0 to 100. This final number is interpreted as a measure of function with higher scores representing higher levels of function. |

|
The magnetic resonance imaging -based Whole-Organ Magnetic Resonance Imaging (WORMS) Score to assess the full spectrum of knee structures and the severity of knee pathologies
Time Frame: At inclusion
|
WORMS scoring for cartilage.
Cartilage lesions are scored with the WORMS system on an eight-point scale, as follows: 0 indicates normal cartilage; 1, increased signal with fluid-sensitive intermediate-weighted sequences; 2, partial-thickness defect less than 1 cm in greatest width; 2.5, full-thickness defect less than 1 cm in greatest width; 3, multiple areas of partial-thickness (grade 2) defects intermixed with areas of normal thickness or a partial-thickness defect wider than 1 cm but less than 75% of the region; 4, diffuse (≥75% of the region) partial-thickness loss; 5, multiple areas of full-thickness loss (grade 2.5) or a full-thickness defect wider than 1 cm but less than 75% of the region; and 6, diffuse (≥75% of the region) full-thickness loss.

Analysis of the surgical section by the OARSI score (Osteoarthritis research society international) for evaluation of histologic status
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 3 years
|
The OARSI system is based on histologic features of osteoarthritis progression.
The system employs analysis of a standard block/section assessment by grade, stage of arthritis with subsequent calculation of an arthritis score.
With normal cartilage as grade 0, osteoarthritis severity is divided into six grades.
Grades 1-4 involve articular cartilage changes only, whereas grades 5 and 6 involve subchondral bone as well.
