摘要
We report a case of fracture of a titanium nitride-coated femoral component 3 years after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The fracture was at the medial condylar area just posterior to the medial peg of the femoral component. The backside of the broken medial condylar portion of the femoral component was devoid of cement. Debonding of the component is a possible cause of the stress fracture. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of the fracture of the femoral component manufactured from titanium alloy. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
