Abstract
From our study, low preoperative SF-36 PF and VT scores are associated with a higher risk of PPFs after primary TKA. These results can allow the preoperative identification of patients at higher risk of PPF, and appropriate preoperative counseling, optimization, and close follow-up can be instituted for this at-risk group.
