Abstract
Patients with MS are at increased risk of complications, particularly instability and periprosthetic joint infection. Despite this increased risk of complications, patients with MS can demonstrate improved functional outcomes, but not as much as patients without MS. Patients with MS should be counseled appropriately before undergoing TJA.
