![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: The Outcome of Sequential Repeated Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy Performed in 2-Stage Revision Arthroplasty for Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty The Outcome of Sequential Repeated Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy Performed in 2-Stage Revision Arthroplasty for Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty](/preview/png/4061931.png)
Thirteen patients with infected total knee arthroplasty treated by 2-stage revision requiring tibial tubercle osteotomy in both stages for extensile exposure were retrospectively analyzed. The preoperative mean range of knee motion improved from 60° (range, 30°-90°) to 94° (range, 70°-120°) at latest follow-up. The Knee Society knee scores and function scores were 39 and 18 preoperatively and 78 and 67 at latest follow-up, respectively. Although proximal migration occurred in 3 cases and a partial proximal avulsion fracture of the osteotomy segment occurred in 1 case after the second-stage reimplantation, radiographic bony union was observed in all cases. Sequential repeated tibial tubercle osteotomy can be a useful extensile surgical approach in staged revision for infected total knee arthroplasty with satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes.
