Abstract
The number of revision total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) performed annually continues to rise.

It will provide an overview of the surgical tips and tricks for exposure and component removal, use of metaphyseal fixation and stems to manage bone loss and optimize fixation, constraint in TKA, as well as how to manage extensor mechanism disruptions with a synthetic mesh reconstruction.
