Periprosthetic femoral fractures
Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery, 2015Abstract This article describes the case of a patient with a periprosthetic femoral fracture. The risk factors and possible reasons for the increasing incidence of this type of fracture in current orthopaedic practice are discussed. A classification is presented and the correct approach to management, with direct application to the case described, is

Periprosthetic Tibial Fractures
2014Periprosthetic fractures involving the tibia are less common than femoral fractures with an incidence of 0.1 % and 0.4 % in primary and revision surgery respectively. In 1997 Felix et al. proposed this classification scheme for periprosthetic tibial fractures around a total knee arthroplasty.

Periprosthetic femoral fractures.
Instructional course lectures, 2009Periprosthetic fractures of the femur are increasing both in the absolute number of fractures per year and in frequency (proportion of fractures among patients with hip arthroplasty). As a result, orthopaedic surgeons will face these challenging injuries more often.
