heal.abstract | We report 3 cases of periprosthetic fractures after total knee replacement treated with Ilizarov external fixator (Smith and Nephew plc, Memphis, Tenn) and a follow-up of at least 3 years. We used 2 rings in the supracondylar area distal to the fracture and 3 half pins proximally in all our cases leaving the knee free to move. In one patient apart from the 2-ring frame placed distal to the fracture site the fixator included another ring frame placed proximally just below the 3 half pins. Uncomplicated fracture healing with lower extremity excellent alignment was achieved in 12 weeks after surgery. In periprosthetic femoral fractures, especially in elderly patients, Ilizarov external fixator is a treatment option which provides stable fixation, prompt postoperative mobilization, and has no major complications. | en |
