Anterior femoral notching during total knee arthroplasty: A predictor of periprosthetic femoral fractures?

Objectives and questions: Anterior femoral notching during TKA is thought to weaken the distal femur, potentially increasing periprosthetic fracture risk, but its clinical impact remains debated. This study examines whether notching independently predicts such fractures and assesses related clinical [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
