Objective Mortality rates reported by the National Joint Registry for England and Wales (NJR) were higher following cemented total knee replacement (TKR) compared with uncemented procedures. The aim of this study is to examine and compare the effects of cemented and uncemented TKR on the activation of selected markers of inflammation, endothelium, and coagulation, and on the activation of selected cytokines involved in the various aspects of the systemic response following surgery.<p></p> Methods This was a single centre, prospective, case-control study. Following enrolment, blood samples were taken pre-operatively, and further samples were collected at day one and day seven post-operatively. One patient in the cemented group developed a...
