Periprosthetic tibial bone mineral density changes after total knee arthroplasty: A 7-year follow-up of 86 patients

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may cause postoperative periprosthetic bone loss due to stress shielding. Bone also adapts to mechanical alterations such as correction of malalignment. We investigated medium-term changes in bone mineral density (BMD) in tibial periprosthetic bo...
