Abstract
A technique is described for revision knee arthroplasty with impaction grafting of cancellous bone grafts to treat bone loss and the use of primary implants. Specially designed impaction instruments were used. Bone loss was classified according to the Anderson Orthopaedic Research Institute classification. Four-year follow-up of 11 knees in 9 patients showed good clinical and radiographic results.
