Nailed Cementoplasty: A Salvage Technique for Rorabeck Type II Periprosthetic Fractures in Octogenarians
چکیده انگلیسی

Periprosthetic femoral fractures around a total knee arthroplasty present a surgical challenge in octogenarians with advanced osteoporosis. We describe a salvage technique combining retrograde intramedullary nailing augmented with polymethylmethacrylate cement in 5 patients followed up for a median time of 12 months. The nail/cement construct bridges the femoral canal tightly and simulates a stemmed cemented revision component. All patients had an uncomplicated recovery and returned to their preinjury functional status within 4 months. This procedure does not disrupt the soft tissue envelope around the fracture site, is easy to perform and permits immediate full range of movement. When standard retrograde nailing or plating alone is inadequate in maintaining severely osteoporotic fracture reduction, nailed cementoplasty is proposed as a salvage procedure in octogenarians unfit for lengthy interventions.
