Abstract

Arthroplasty is probably the most variable procedure as the techniques vary according to the patients’ morphology and the severity of arthritis.

Good results cannot be achieved without careful planning even in primary arthroplasty, especially when there are accompanying problems such as bone defects, deformity, and/or instability of the knee joint. Although such conditions are more frequently encountered during revision arthroplasty, I feel the need to share a separate chapter for describing the specific extraordinary surgical procedures so as to avoid their omittance.

This chapter comprises of the specific conditions and/or diseases of the knee joint that need special attention.
