Management of proximal tibial stress fracture associated with advanced knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review

CONCLUSION: The optimal clinical outcome for treating either acute or mobile tibial stress fracture in patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis can be achieved with long stem total knee arthroplasty. However, due to heterogeneity of data, comparison of different treatment options for chronic proximal tibial stress fracture mal-union/non-union coexisting with knee osteoarthritic and such inferences need to be judged cautiously.PMID:37543509 | DOI:10.1016/j.cjtee.2023.07.002
