Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty is a reliable solution not only for the primary arthritic knee but also for severe knee fractures, either affected by osteoarthritis or not, or in case of severe bone loss in young patients. In this paper we present our experience and we suggest different technical solutions related to different segmental bones involved.
