Periprosthetic fractures

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2014
We are currently facing an epidemic of periprosthetic fractures around the hip. They may occur either during surgery or post-operatively. Although the acetabulum may be involved, the femur is most commonly affected. We are being presented with new, difficult fracture patterns around cemented and cementless implants, and we face the challenge of an ...

Periprosthetic Knee Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2008
Fractures of the distal femur, proximal tibia, and patella that occur adjacent to a total knee replacement may be very difficult to treat. Fixation options are compromised because of the short articular segment, frequent comminution, pre-existing osteoporosis, previous surgical incisions, and the presence of the knee implant itself.

Periprosthetic Patellar Fractures

Journal of Knee Surgery, 2013
Periprosthetic patellar fractures represent a spectrum of injuries to a patient with a total knee arthroplasty. They range in severity from an inconsequential injury, which does not compromise function, to a severely debilitating injury that may require advanced reconstructive measures.

Periprosthetic Fractures

Revue medicale suisse, 2015
A periprosthetic fracture is a fracture around or in proximity of a prosthetic implant. As more and more prostheses are implanted, the incidence of periprosthetic fractures also increases. Several risk factors have been outlined, some due to the patient, and some due to the implant itself.

Periprosthetic Patellar Fractures

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2006
Patellar fracture after total knee arthroplasty is a rare yet challenging complication. Patellar fracture can occur as a result of trauma or it may be atraumatic. A multitude of factors can lead to periprosthetic patellar fracture including patient related factors, surgical technique related factors, and implant specific factors.

Periprosthetic Tibial Fractures

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2018
Periprosthetic fractures around total knee arthroplasty have become an increasingly common and challenging orthopaedic problem. Appropriate management of these fractures depends on careful scrutiny of radiographs and a thorough clinical history to exclude the diagnosis of a periprosthetic infection.

Periprosthetic Patellar Fractures

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2007
The patella is the largest sesamoid bone in the skeleton. Located within an expansion of the quadriceps tendon, the patella allows an increased functional lever arm of the quadriceps and enhances the mechanical advantage of the extensor mechanism of the knee.

Periprosthetic Femur Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2015
Successful treatment of periprosthetic femur fractures, like all fractures, requires careful attention to understand the fracture pattern nuances, identifying and executing a rational treatment approach, and providing an appropriate postoperative recovery protocol.
