Objectives: Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of perioperative exposure to TNF inhibitors (TNFi) on the long-term survival of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in inflammatory arthritis patients from a large regional register of arthroplasty procedures (RIPO).Methods: This study is a retrospective analysis of data from RIPO for THAs performed between 2008 and 2019. After extraction of the procedures of interest from the RIPO dataset, cross-matching with administrative databases were used to identify patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), primary osteoarthritis (OA), and treatments of interest. Three different cohorts of patients were identified: perioperative TNFi-treated patients (6 months before or after the surgery), perioperative nonbDMARD/tsDMARD (biologic or targeted-synthetic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs), and OA.Results: At an average follow-up of 5 years, survival rates (using any revision surgery as an endpoint) were not significantly different when perioperative TNFi users and non-bDMARD/tsDMARD patients were compared (p = 0.713), and between TNFi-treated and OA controls (p = 0.123). At the latest available follow-up, 2.5% patients in the TNFi cohort, 3% in the non-bDMARD/tsDMARD cohort, and 0.8% in the OA cohort underwent revision surgery. No significant differences were found comparing the risk of postoperative infection or aseptic loosening among groups.Conclusion: Risk of revision surgery is not increased in patients with inflammatory arthritis perioperatively exposed to TNFi. Our results support the long-term safety of this class of molecules on survival of prosthetic implants.

Abstract

Objectives: Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of perioperative exposure to TNF inhibitors (TNFi) on the long-term survival of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in inflammatory arthritis patients from a large regional register of arthroplasty procedures (RIPO).Methods: This study is a retrospective analysis of data from RIPO for THAs performed between 2008 and 2019. After extraction of the procedures of interest from the RIPO dataset, cross-matching with administrative databases were used to identify patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), primary osteoarthritis (OA), and treatments of interest. Three different cohorts of patients were identified: perioperative TNFi-treated patients (6 months before or after the surgery), perioperative nonbDMARD/tsDMARD (biologic or targeted-synthetic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs), and OA.Results: At an average follow-up of 5 years, survival rates (using any revision surgery as an endpoint) were not significantly different when perioperative TNFi users and non-bDMARD/tsDMARD patients were compared (p = 0.713), and between TNFi-treated and OA controls (p = 0.123). At the latest available follow-up, 2.5% patients in the TNFi cohort, 3% in the non-bDMARD/tsDMARD cohort, and 0.8% in the OA cohort underwent revision surgery. No significant differences were found comparing the risk of postoperative infection or aseptic loosening among groups.Conclusion: Risk of revision surgery is not increased in patients with inflammatory arthritis perioperatively exposed to TNFi. Our results support the long-term safety of this class of molecules on survival of prosthetic implants.
