Periprosthetic Tibia Fracture Clinical Evaluation

Periprosthetic Tibia Fracture Xray / Diagnositc Tests

  • Consider ESR and CRP.  11% of periprosthetic fractures have concomitant infection.  (Chevillotte CJ, Ali MH, Trousdale RT, Larson DR, Gullerud RE, Berry DJ. Inflammatory laboratory markers in periprosthetic hip fractures. J Arthroplasty. 2009 Aug;24(5):722-7)

Periprosthetic Tibia Fracture Classification / Treatment

  • Type I: involve the tibial plateau
  • Type II: occur adjacent to the stem of the tibial component:  often loose and require revision arthroplasty with diaphyseal-engaging intramedullary tibial stem.
  • Type III: distal to the tibial stem.  A=standard management of tibial fracture.  B= loose require revision arthroplasty with diaphyseal-engaging intramedullary tibial stem +/- ORIF. 
  • Type IV: fractures involve the tibial tubercle. 
  • Subclassifications: A with a well-fixed implant; B with a loose implant; and C, occurring intraoperatively.
