Abstract

We report a series of 37 consecutive patients with both bone infection and septic arthritis of the knee following fracture of the proximal tibia Aim of this study is to evaluate treatment results using a standardized treatment regime The treatment regime consisted of an aggressive surgical approach to both the bone and the joint In 61 the joint function was preserved in the reminder an arthrodesis was required there were no amputations The difficulties in dealing with this condition are described as well as the clinical radiological and occupational resultsThe reported treatment regime gives reliable results for the treatment of combined bone and joint infection of the knee after fracture In a large group of cases it was possible to salvage joint function Comparison to other forms of treatment is not possible as there are no reported results so far
