One-Stage Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty as the Treatment of Acute Septic Arthritis of the Native Osteoarthritic Knee: Report of 3 Cases and Review of Literature.

We present three cases of acute septic arthritis in osteoarthritic knees managed with one-stage primary total knee arthroplasty and followed for 2 years. This approach, diverging from conventional staged protocols, combines thorough debridement, immediate biomechanical restoration, and extended antibiotic therapy. Patients exhibited significant symptomatic relief, functional recovery, and no recurrent infections.

Feasibility and acceptability of a telerehabilitation intervention on patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty in Iran: randomised controlled trial protocol.

Introduction: Telerehabilitation is a promising avenue to enhance post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) rehabilitation by improving accessibility, convenience and cost-effectiveness. Despite its potential benefits, its application in the context of TKA in Iran is in its early stages, lacking comprehensive studies on feasibility, acceptance and programme adherence. This article outlines a protocol for an open-label, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial investigating the impact of a 4 week telerehabilitation programme alongside usual care.
