Acute Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty for Proximal Tibial Fractures in Elderly
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Background: Proximal tibial fractures in elderly patients with osteoporosis or knee osteoarthritis (OA) are challengingcases. In the current study, we present our experience with uncommon acute primary total knee arthroplasty (PTKA)in this patient population.Methods: PTKAs were performed following proximal tibial fractures in 30 consecutive patients over 60 years of agewith osteoporosis or knee OA between 2005 and 2009. Three constrained condylar knees (CCK) and no hinged kneeprosthesis were used. Patients were followed up for 4.5±1.1 years.Results: Patients were discharged after 4.6±1.2 days. The postoperative Tegner activity scale (3.5±1.3) was improvedsignificantly compared to the preoperative scale (2.5±1.2) (P

Long- Stem Total Knee Arthroplasty for Proximal Tibial Stress Fractures in the Elderly Patients
Background: Presentation of proximal tibia stress fracture is not infrequent among elderly patients due to their poorbone stock. Optimal management of patients with severe gonarthrosis of the knee and concurrent tibial stress fracture isnot known yet. In this study we report the outcome of primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using stemmed componentsin elderly patients.Methods: Between 2009 an...

متن کاملPrimary Total Knee Arthroplasty for Simple Distal Femoral Fractures in Elderly Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
PURPOSE Primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can be an alternative method for treating distal femoral fractures in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results in patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent TKA with the Medial Pivot prosthesis for distal femoral fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight displaced ...
متن کاملTotal knee arthroplasty and fractures of the tibial plateau
Tibial plateau fractures are common injuries that occur in a bimodal age distribution. While there are various treatment options for displaced tibial plateau fractures, the standard of care is open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). In physiologically young patients with higher demand and better bone quality, ORIF is the preferred method of treating these fractures. However, future total k...
متن کاملPrimary knee arthroplasty for distal femoral fractures in elderly patients.
We discuss the role of primary knee arthroplasty in supracondylar and intercondylar fractures of the femur in elderly patients with reference to 13 cases. This method of treatment is shown to be effective and to have good results. It is recommended for all type C and some type A supracondylar fractures in old people.
متن کاملThe all-polyethylene tibial component in primary total knee arthroplasty.
Outcomes of total knee arthroplasties performed with modern all-polyethylene tibial components have been found to be comparable with or better than those of arthroplasties done with metal-backed modular components in numerous mid-to-long-term follow-up studies, radiostereometric analyses, and the few prospective randomized trials available. Advantages of an all-polyethylene tibial component ove...
