Joint line reestablishment in revision total knee arthroplasty.

Background: In this study, the traditional "Anatomical Landmark-Distance Method (AL-DM)" in the formation of joint line (JL) was compared with "Adductor Tubercle-Ratios method" (AT-RM), and the effect of reestablishment of JL on clinical and functional outcomes were evaluated.

Materials And Methods: 16 revision total knee arthroplasties (rTKAs) were performed by using "AT-RM" (group 1) and 16 rTKA by using "AL-DM" (group 2) in our clinic between 2015 and 2018. The data were prospectively collected and a total of 32 knees of 31 patients were analyzed.

Simultaneous posterior dislocation of primary total knee arthroplasty with ipsilateral tibial shaft fracture: A case report and review of literature.

Dislocation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a rare but serious complication. Here, a 74-year-old woman with posterior dislocation of her right cruciate-retaining TKA and ipsilateral tibia diaphysis fracture was presented. She only slipped down on the ground with a quick twist of her right leg.
