Autologous bone grafting for tibial defects in total knee arthroplasty

Abstract

Asymmetric bone loss from the tibia is a common finding in patient with advanced arthritis being treated with total knee arthroplasty. Such bone loss must be corrected when total knee arthroplasty is done if optimal function of the reconstructed knee is expected. The options for their treatment have included; increased bone resection, filling with cement, cement reinforced with screws, the use of metal wedges, custom prosthesis and bone grafting. The aim of this is paper is to review our experience with autologous bone grafting for medial defects. 10 total knee arthroplasties were implanted in severely deformed knees with large bony defects. The defect was filled with an autologous bone graft obtained from the same knee and fixed with two or three screws. The patients were reviewed during an average follow-up period of 22.8 months (range 8-48). All of the grafts were completely united. There was no evidence of graft collapse in five knees and five knees demonstrated evidence of minor graft resorption. The mean Knee Society functional score postoperatively was 82.5 points and knee score was 87.1 points. Despite the short-term follow-up , we believe that tibial autologous grafting is an acceptable solution to managing severe defects in total knee arthroplasty.
