Abstract

Femoral shaft fracture is one of the most common injuries encountered. However, improper management can lead to significant long-term complications, of which is malunion. Patients with femoral malunion are at increased risk of developing knee osteoarthritis, and if arthroplasty is indicated, these extra-articular deformities pose a challenge as corrective osteotomy and soft tissue release are also required. In such circumstances, robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) might be an appropriate option. In this case, we present a 66-year-old woman who had previously suffered a femur shaft fracture, which was treated conservatively, and developed a varus malunion and severe knee osteoarthritis, and who was treated with RATKA.
