Description
Bailey Ross and co-authors open a bone window to free a stuck knee implant in a 2025 paper. Revision knee surgery often must pull a well-fixed shin component out. Pegs, keels, and stems block the usual prying paths around the implant.
Their front-inner cortical window cuts a small door in the shin bone. Through it, tools reach the implant-cement and cement-bone seams inside the canal. Nearby ligaments, tendons, and vessels set the safe limits of the cut. The method suits cases that do not need a wider back-side exposure. A smarter door beats brute force when bone stock is precious.
