Knee Disarticulation for a Total Knee Arthroplasty Periprosthetic Fracture.
Total knee arthroplasty, although a very successful surgery, can present the patient with several potential complications, including the risk for periprosthetic fractures. Complications involving periprosthetic fractures after total knee arthroplasty can present a complex clinical scenario for orthopedic surgeons. To date, adequate literature exists to guide surgeons in approaching most peripro...
متن کاملPeriprosthetic Infection Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
One of the most devastating complications of prosthetic knee arthroplasty is a periprosthetic infection. This complication occurs in 1-2% of knee arthroplasties [1,2] and can exceed 4% in immunocompromized individuals [3] and 7% after revision surgery [4]. Prosthetic infection leads to loosening of the implant, [5,6]. In this circumstances revision surgery is required. Because of the diversity ...
متن کاملPeriprosthetic Fractures Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
Periprosthetic fractures after total knee arthroplasty may occur in any part of the femur, tibia and patella, and the most common pattern involves the supracondylar area of the distal femur. Supracondylar periprosthetic fractures frequently occur above a well-fixed prosthesis, and risk factors include anterior femoral cortical notching and use of the rotational constrained implant. Periprosthet...
متن کاملTibial Periprosthetic Fracture Combined with Tibial Stem Stress Fracture from Total Knee Arthroplasty
Total knee arthroplasty complications related to the prosthetic material are very rare, except for polyethylene wear. We report the case of a 58-year-old woman who came to the emergency service of our hospital with a periprosthetic tibial fracture (Mayo Clinic type I). Careful examination showed that this fracture was concomitantly associated with a tibial stem fatigue fracture. The prosthesis ...
متن کاملShort Stem Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty Periprosthetic Type A Fracture.
Alterations have been made over the years to the standard reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) prosthetic components in an effort to decrease adverse events; this has led to the advent of a short humeral stem prosthesis. To the authors' knowledge, there are no reports describing the complication of a traumatic periprosthetic Wright and Cofield classification type A fracture with use of a ...
