Periprosthetic Fracture and Basic Physiotherapy management

A periprosthetic fracture is a bone fracture that occurs around the implants of a total joint replacement, such as a total hip or knee replacement. ​🦴 Periprosthetic Fracture Overview ​Definition: A fracture of the bone around a total joint replacement (prosthesis). ​Cause: Often due to trauma (e.g., a fall), but can also result from stress shielding or loosening of the implant, which weakens the surrounding bone over time. ​Treatment: Typically involves surgical intervention to fix the fracture (e.g., open reduction and internal fixation) or to revise/replace the existing prosthesis. ​🦵 Basic Physiotherapy Management ​Physiotherapy is crucial for recovery, aiming to restore mobility, strength, and function. The management is highly dependent on the surgeon's protocol, the stability of the fixation, and the type of fracture/prosthesis involved. #doctor #physiotherapy #exercises #strengthtraining #team #weightbearingexercise #Nonweightbearing
