AbstractDemographic changes have resulted in an increase in the number of older patients diagnosed with degenerative joint disease. Developments in the field of joint arthroplasty allow a broader population to improve their lifestyles. An increased demand for knee arthroplasty has led to a rise in operations performed worldwide. Although there has been a constant propagation of technology and an increase in medical staffing at a professional level, many patients still encounter complications. Though rare, these factors may lead to life-threatening scenarios and a devastating effect on the success of the operation. One such rare complication includes periprosthetic fractures around the knee, a complex injury which requires a cautious and experienced approach. In this review, we analyze the prevalence, risk factors and classification, investigation and treatment options for periprosthetic fractures with total knee arthroplasty.

Results of surgical treatment of 19 patients in whom total knee replacement was performed in combination with various reconstructive microsurgical operations were analyzed. It was shown that application of microsurgical technologies provided new potentialities in total knee arthroplasty first of all in atypical and complicated cases. Advantages of step-by-step treatment presupposing firstly the restoration of integument in the knee joint region followed by its total arthroplasty were revealed.

Retrospective analysis of case histories of 125 patients (36-77 years) after total knee arthroplasty for III-IV stage of gonarthrosis was performed. On 4-5 day after operation deep vein thrombosis was diagnosed in 30 (23.6%) patients. It was stated that additional factors which trustworthily influenced the risk factors of thromboembolic complications development were the following: application of tourniquet to the femur for more than 1 hour; application of tourniquet to the patients with initial venous pathology (varicosis of vena saphena magna and vena saphena parva, consequences of thrombophlebitis); obesity of II-III degree in women. No reliable influence of various methods of anesthesia and infusion therapy upon the risk of thrombosis development was detected. Obtained data confirm the necessity to perform compulsory examination of lower extremities veins in patients prior to knee joint arthroplasty and take additional measures on thrombosis prevention in high risk groups. Observance of the proposed antithrombotic protocol in the postoperative period prevents vein thrombosis progression, thrombus fragmentation and floating as well as promotes accelerated recanalization of thrombotic veins.
