The aim this study was examine results peri-knee treated directly within 3 months by implantation knee prosthesis. Material Methods: 15 patients could identified who were de- scribed way last 4 years. follow-up time 39 months. injury occurred all cases after banal trauma.

Conclusion: For patients, primary arthroplasty periarticular theknee is valid option. Nevertheless, surgeon has identify those which impossible treat osteosynthe- sis. Furthermore, application appropri- ate prosthesis, regarding degree hinge constrainment augmentation tibial femoral bone stock, important.
