Surgical Management of a Rare Complex Periprosthetic Fracture of Tibia in a Young Patient – Case Report and a Novel Technique
We conclude that in patients with good bone quality, even if a small part of the tibial plateau is preserved, stemmed tibia with reconstruction of the tibial plateau should be considered as an option to manage the Type 1B fractures, since these patients have high potential for osteointegration of the grafts and restoration of the primary knee will definitely have longer survival than constrained or mega knee prosthesis.
