Revision total knee arthroplasty in patients with osteoarthritis

R J Friedman et al. Rheum Dis Clin North Am. 1988 Dec.

Abstract

Total knee replacement (TKR) is a technically demanding surgical procedure, which is becoming more reliable and durable than total hip replacements. The authors describe the mechanisms of failure, the clinical evaluation of the painful TKR, the surgical planning techniques, and the overall results of revision TKR to date.
