There are previous case reports in the literature that describe total knee and total hip arthroplasty (THA) in below-knee amputees, but we could find no case reports on above-knee amputees (AKAs) who have severe osteoarthritis of the hip. We present a case involving an AKA who developed severe osteoarthritis of the ipsilateral hip. Out patient underwent THA with a satisfactory postoperative outcome. Technical considerations for AKAs undergoing THA are also reviewed.
文献中有先前的病例报告描述了膝下截肢患者的全膝关节置换术和全髋关节置换术（THA），但我们未找到关于患有严重髋骨关节炎的膝上截肢患者（AKA）的病例报告。我们呈现了一例涉及一名发生同侧髋部严重骨关节炎的膝上截肢患者的病例。该门诊患者接受了全髋关节置换术，术后结果令人满意。我们还回顾了接受全髋关节置换术的膝上截肢患者的技术要点。
