We have specific criteria to decide if the patient is fit to have both sides of joints replaced at the same time or not. The bilateral procedures had a significantly higher rate of complications than unilateral procedures, almost entirely because of thromboembolic problems. Studies have shown Bilateral TKA had an increased risk for all complications compared with unilateral TKA regardless of health status. For all complications, there was a greater than threefold increase for the first quartile in the healthiest patients. a greater than fourfold increase for the second and third quartiles, and a greater than threefold increase for the fourth quartile (least healthy patients. Therefore, we recommend simultaneous bilateral knee arthroplasty only for patients in ASA classes 1 and 2.
