Abstract
Our study showed that TKA was a valid option for dialysis patients after careful preoperative evaluation. Most patients had an improved clinical outcome. There were no instances of prosthetic loosening or deep infection. However, dialysis patients under consideration for TKA need to be informed of the risk of possible medical complications due to the nature of ESRD.
