A case report of peri prosthetic fracture after total knee arthroplasty in rheumatoid arthritis patient treated with revision hinge TKR

International Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences · 2019 · Vol. 5(3) · pp. 345–350

Abstract

We follow a new classification for periposthetic fractures which takes into account the status of the prosthesis, the quality of distal bone stock, and the reducibility of the fracture. We presented a case of 64 year old osteoporotic rheumatoid arthritic female with bilateral periprosthetic fracture treated with revision hinge TKR.
