Study summary

The Columbus® Revision endoprosthetic system is bearing the CE-mark. This means that within the scope of this observational study the patient will not be subjected to any additional stressful, study-related medical examinations or treatment measures. The treatment will be carried out exclusively according to medical standards. The study therefore only serves the purpose of observing this standard-compliant treatment and specifically documenting it scientifically.

Read the detailed description

The study's main purpose is the collection of clinical data on the safety and performance of the Columbus® Revision Knee endoprosthesis

Study population

Patients in the case group will be recruited consecutively. No selection besides the inclusion and exclusion criteria will take place. The following criteria are applicable for the inclusion of study patients:

Patients in the control group will correspond to a historical cohort of patients in which manual jig-assisted knee revision was done. A minimum of two years follow up will be necessary to be included.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient underwent navigated revision surgery using the Columbus® Revision knee prosthesis (case group)
  • Patient underwent conventional manual revision surgery using another implant system (control group)
  • Written

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy
  • Patient Age at time of revision surgery \< 18 years
  • Allergy to any prosthesis component
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Compare the final joint line height between groups after the surgical restoration of native joint line height of revision implants

    Joint line height will be assessed using the systematic, comparative x-ray analysis

    Time frame: Comparison of final joint line height before the surgery with height at the 3 months follow-up

Secondary outcomes

  1. Maintenance of Hip knee Ankle Angle

    The HKA within 3 degrees of neutral has been used as the essential outcome measure in TKA.

    Time frame: Comparison of HKA before the surgery with HKA at 3 months and 2 years follow-up

  2. Forgotten Joint Score

    The FJS Knee was designed to assess patient outcome in patients undergoing conservative or operative treatment of the knee. These PRO questionnaires focus on patients' awareness of a specific joint in everyday life. In 12 Items the awareness for the artificial joint is assessed by the patient, each on a five point scale (Never / Almost Never / Seldom / Sometimes / Mostly)

    Time frame: At final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

  3. WOMAC Score

    The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) is a widely used, proprietary set of standardized questionnaires used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee and hip, including pain (5 items), stiffness (2 items), and physical functioning (17 items) of the joints. Each item is assessed by the patient on a five point scale (none / slight / moderate / severe / extreme)

    Time frame: At final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

  4. KSS Score

    The KSS is an examiner--administrated standard clinical evaluation tool reporting results for patients undergoing TKA. It separates findings in the operated knee (kKSS) score from findings related to the patient's function (fKSS), which might be affected by co-morbidities. The two sub-scores are reported separately ranging from 0 points (worst result) to 100 points (best results), as well as summarized score, total KSS. Final grading of total KSS results Scores of 160 to 200 will be rated as excellent, 140 to 159 as good, 120 to 139 as fair, and less than 120 as poor.

    Time frame: At final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

  5. Implant survival

    Survival in the sense of this study is defined as a removal or exchange of any revision implant components including the removal or exchange of the PE meniscus component. Secondary interventions at the index knee e.g. secondary patella replacement do not count as a revision if no further exchange of the former implant components occur. The revision-free survival rate is the performance indicator of the product under investigation and confirms the clinical outcome of the knee prosthesis. Information on survival of the implant will be collected until the last follow-up of the study patients took place.

    Time frame: Until final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

  6. Documentation of Adverse events/serious adverse events

    During the course of the study, any upcoming intra- or postoperative (serious) adverse device events or effects related or not related to the product under investigation, will be documented in the dedicated Case Report Forms The total number of AEs will be summarized and further evaluated by the sponsor Recorded complications will be categorized and analyzed in order to assess the safety of the investigational product

    Time frame: over the whole course of the study from surgery until final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

Other outcomes

  1. Descriptive analysis of Radiological assessment

    All follow-up imaging exams will be obtained according to the radiographic protocol of the hospital and the set routine. Imaging will be used to evaluate the implant status as well as device condition and potential presence of device-related Adverse Events including fracture, wear, loosening or radiolucencies, as well as the parameters of joint line restoration, rotational alignment and posterior condylar offset.

    Time frame: from discharge until final follow-up at least 2 years after surgery

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 14, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
