The purpose of the present study was to determine clinical outcome of TKA revision in patients with severe stiffness (range of motion (ROM) \u2264 70\u00b0) and evaluate a possible influence of accompanying findings, such as component malposition, aseptic loosening or instability.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A prospective cohort of 40 patients with a preoperative ROM \u2264 70\u00b0 and a minimum of 2\u2010year follow\u2010up after total system revision (Genesis or Legion stemmed condylar implant) was evaluated. ROM, Knee Society Scoring System (KSS) and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores were obtained preoperatively and at 2 years. Patient satisfaction and complication rate were assessed. Component malposition was most frequently reported as accompanying finding (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 27). Comparisons between pre\u2010 and postoperative outcome (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05) and between different subgroups (component malposition, aseptic loosening, and instability) based on accompanying findings were made (no statistical comparison).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>ROM, KSS and VAS pain scores improved significantly (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001): median ROM at two years 85\u00b0 (range 10\u2013125) and median gain 25\u00b0 (range \u221210 to +85). Median VAS satisfaction was 53.5 points (range 15\u201398). Seventeen patients reported at least one complication, including one re\u2010revision. Six patients underwent manipulation under anaesthesia, and five were referred to the pain clinic. No clear differences between subgroups were observed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>TKA revision in patients with severe stiffness resulted in a moderate but significant improved clinical outcome after 2 years. Accompanying abnormalities such as component malposition, aseptic loosening or instability did not influence clinical outcome. Realistic patient counselling on the moderate outcome and possible remaining limitations in daily life might help to improve patient satisfaction.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>Therapeutic studies\u2014case series with no comparison group, Level IV.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167-015-3712-7","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,27]],"date-time":"2015-07-27T06:35:39Z","timestamp":1437978939000},"page":"3235-3241","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Moderate clinical improvement after revision arthroplasty of the severely stiff knee"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"P.
