A Soft- Tissue Injury Diagnosis in Knee Replacement Patients cannot be made without a Plain Radiograph.
Abstract
The design of some knee replacements includes the use of a mobile polyethylene bearing which can potentially dislocate away from the main bearing surfaces. This is particularly the case in unicompartmental or partial knee replacements (UKRs), and the most widely used UKR currently has this feature. Bearing dislocations are typically very painful and disabling, but not always, as in the case we present.
