Patients with knee and hip joint diseases or fractures in a limb with a distal portion amputated were successfully treated with total joint arthroplasties. Two patients with below-knee amputations recieved total joint replacements. One underwent a total hip arthroplasty and the other had a total knee arthryplasty on the side of the amputation. Physical therapy was modified minimally for the two patients in comparison to other patients with total joint replacements. Prosthetic changes were required in both cases. With new prostheses, both patients were able to return to work.
患有膝关节和髋关节疾病或肢体远端部分截肢并伴有骨折的患者通过全关节置换术得到了成功治疗。两名膝下截肢患者接受了全关节置换。其中一名接受了全髋关节置换术，另一名在截肢侧接受了全膝关节置换术。与其他接受全关节置换的患者相比，这两名患者的物理治疗仅做了轻微调整。两例均需要更换假体。使用新假体后，两名患者均能够重返工作岗位。
