Periprosthetic Patellar Fractures
Journal of Knee Surgery, 2013Periprosthetic 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.

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, 2006Patellar 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, 2018Periprosthetic 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, 2007The 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, 2015Successful 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.

Periprosthetic Femoral Fractures
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1994Fracture of the femoral shaft around a hip prosthesis presents the simultaneous problems of prosthetic stability and femoral- fracture management. Treatment options include nonoperative stabilization (traction) and operative stabilization by means of intramedullary fixation, extramedullary fixation, or proximal femoral prosthetic replacement.

Periprosthetic femoral fractures
British Journal of Hospital MedicineThe incidence of periprosthetic femoral fractures is rising in the UK, because of an ageing population and an increasing number of hip arthroplasty operations being performed. They can occur intra- or postoperatively, and usually follow low energy trauma. They present with pain, swelling over the thigh, and an inability to weight bear.

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
