Total Knee Arthroplasty for Chronic Neglected Posterior Knee Dislocation: Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract: Knee dislocations are rare injuries. Posterior knee dislocations are only a small subset of them. There is a paucity of literature regarding the management of such neglected cases. We report here, a case of neglected irreducible posterior knee dislocation treated with a total knee arthroplasty followed by gradual rehabilitation with good outcome at 1 year follow-up.

“…Anterior knee dislocation is a rare injury and results from high-energy trauma [ 1 ]. Neglected dislocation of the knee joint is even more rare [ 2 ]. There is limited number of articles published addressing it, and hence, an algorithm for the management of such cases has not been developed yet.…”
