“…One-stage long-stem TKA restores limb alignment and facilitates fracture healing, with excellent outcome. [1][2][3] and rheumatoid arthritis, 4,5 osteoarthritis, [6][7][8] osteoporosis, 1 post-traumatic deformity, 9 deformed degenerate knees, 4,10 Paget's disease, 11 pyrophosphate arthropathy, 12 and knee arthroplasty (unicondylar and navigated) [13][14][15][16] in elderly people. Stress fractures are usually treated by rest and/or casting 6,10,17 and rarely surgery.…”

“…Stress fractures are usually treated by rest and/or casting 6,10,17 and rarely surgery. 12,13,17 Treatment for patients with knee arthritis and stress fractures is challenging. Malalignment secondary to osteoarthritis increases the stress at the fracture site, which predisposes to delayed or non-union.…”

“…Furthermore some of these reports have also stressed the importance of adequate correction of the deformity and a proper reconstruction of the mechanical axis (Maquet et al 1967) of the leg (Kagan 1977, Lotke & Ecker 1977, Ducheyne et al 1978, Lacey 1978, Cartier 1979, Jonsson & Lindstrand 1980, Anderson & Herberts 1980, Rand & Coventry 1980. Marmor (1979) recommends that the tibial component should be placed on the cancellous bone where the tibial plateau has been deepened approximately 3 mm leaving a good retaining rim of cortical bone around the periphery.…”

“…15,16 Surgery is indicated in complicated fractures. 17,18 Conservative treatment of fracture in this age group is fraught with all the complications of prolonged recumbency viz. chest infections, bed sores, disuses osteoporosis, muscle dystrophy besides malunion/delayed or non-union of fracture and malalignment and deformity of the limb.…”
