Total knee arthroplasty and distal femoral replacement in young patients with bony neoplasm: complications, survival and patient-reported outcomes

Key Points

• Complications associated with total knee arthroplasty in young patients suggest careful monitoring is essential.
• Patient-reported outcomes indicate mixed satisfaction levels following distal femoral replacement procedures.
• The survival rates post-surgery are crucial for understanding long-term effects on quality of life among these patients.
• Interventions for bony neoplasms in younger populations require tailored approaches to minimize adverse effects.
