Abstract
Revision total knee replacement is a demanding surgical exercise that requires close adherence to a number of guiding principles if clinical results are to be maximized and complications avoided. To achieve consistently good results in revision total knee replacement, considerable emphasis has to be placed on preoperative planning, surgical exposure, dealing with bone defects, and selecting a proper revision implant.
