Bilateral simultaneous extensor mechanism disruption following simultaneous bilateral total knee replacement

Dussa, C.U., Singhal, K.

Knee

Extensor disruptions of the knee following the total knee replacements are uncommon. We describe a case of postoperative bilateral simultaneous extensor mechanism disruption following simultaneous bilateral total knee replacement. On both sides, the patient sustained open wounds. The extensor mechanism was successfully repaired on both sides, but the outcome is less than satisfactory.
