Posterior dislocation of a constrained total knee arthroplasty: A case report

Abstract: IntroductionDislocation of the knee after primary total knee arthroplasty is rare in a posterior stabilized knee and extremely rare in a constrained total knee arthroplasty. Constrained total knee prostheses are used for severe knee deformities and to provide stable and mobile knees.Presentation of caseIn this case, we describe a dislocation of a primary constrained total knee arthroplasty using the Genesis II (Smith & Nephew, Memphis Tennessee, USA) prosthesis. Without any significant trauma, the constrained … Show more

“…Furthermore, dislocation after TKA may cause vascular and nerve injuries, such as popliteal artery and peroneal nerve impairment. Because of neurovascular complications, early recognition and proper treatment are required [ 3 , [8] , [9] , [10] , 13 , 14 ]. The present report describes a patient who had undergone resection of the posterior thigh muscle group for a femoral liposarcoma several years earlier.…”

“…Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) designs are based on an “anatomic approach”, which retains one or both cruciate ligaments (cruciate retaining (CR) TKA), or a “functional approach”, which substitutes the cruciate ligaments with a post‐cam mechanism (posterior‐stabilised (PS) TKA) [55]. With PS TKA, the post‐cam mechanism can be prone to failure and breakage [6], leading to loss of guided motion and joint instability [4, 5, 13, 27, 30]. Post‐breakages range from 1 to 1.2%, and is more likely in younger and heavier men [28].…”
