Abstract

Background

Periprosthetic fractures after prosthetic joint replacement have received increasing attention over the past decades. The purpose of this study was to estimate the trends and state of research in periprosthetic fractures.

Methods

Articles on periprosthetic fractures were retrieved from the Web of Science database. Information about each article, including country/region, author, institution, issue, journal, and keywords, was recorded for bibliometric analysis. The analysis included only English-language articles from 2000 to 2021, from 58 countries and regions.

Results

A total of 1668 original articles meeting the research requirements were obtained. The number of manuscripts on periprosthetic fractures has experienced rapid growth, especially since 2009. Productivity was dominated by the USA, followed by the UK and Germany. The most prolific institution was Mayo Clinic. The most cited article was published by Sharkey, P.F. in 2002. The five most frequent keywords were "periprosthetic fractures", "total hip arthroplasty", " revision", "arthroplasty", "total knee arthroplasty".

Conclusions

Based on the current trends of globalization, there is a rising trend in publications on periprosthetic fractures, with the largest annual contributions made by the United States. The most influential contributors are researchers from the United States and England. In addition, Journal of Arthroplasty is the journal with the most research in this field. Geriatric trauma and dual mobility are the new hot topics in this field. Together these studies have played a key role in periprosthetic fractures decision-making and management.
