Large defects of the tibia can be bridged with autologous cancellous grafts between the remaining fibula and a contralateral tibial cortical graft. The long-term results of this technique in 3 cases after resection of a malignant tumor were either excellent or fair. It is concluded that this technique is an effective limb-saving surgical procedure.

Coronal Malalignment Is Infrequently Present in Patients With Aseptic Tibial Loosening.
Iowa Orthop J
January 2025
Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, USA.
Background: Coronal lower extremity malalignment and improper implant position have been described as risk factors for aseptic tibial loosening following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, several prior studies have shown no association between alignment and implant loosening. Meanwhile, there is increasing interest in kinematic alignment.

Background And Purpose: Early migration of the uncemented cruciate-sacrificing rotating platform ATTUNE and Low Contact Stress (LCS) tibial components was classified as at-risk for aseptic loosening rates exceeding 6.5% at 15 years based on recent fixation-specific migration thresholds. In this secondary report of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) we aimed to evaluate whether the 5-year migration, inducible displacement, and the clinical outcome of the ATTUNE components were comparable to those of the LCS.

Department of Orthopaedics, Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education and Research, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
Introduction: Giant cell tumour or osteoclastoma is benign, locally aggressive tumor with bone destruction and with malignant potential. It accounts for 5% of all primary bone tumor and occurs in skeletally mature individuals in the age group of 30 to 45 with peak incidence in the 3rd decade. GCT is more common in females.

Orthop Res Rev
January 2025
Scientific Department, Scientific and Research Institute of Rehabilitation of National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsia, Ukraine.
The formation of a functional tibial stump after combat injuries with extensive tissue damage is sometimes difficult. We describe a case of reconstruction of the tibial stump after a mine-blast injury. In this case, the fibula was completely removed as a result of fracture, and the tibia was amputated at the border of the upper and middle thirds.
