ABSTRACT

Knee dislocations are rare injuries. Posterior knee dislocations are only a small subset of them. There is a paucity of literature regarding the management of such neglected cases. We report here, a case of neglected irreducible posterior knee dislocation treated with a total knee arthroplasty followed by gradual rehabilitation with good outcome at 1 year follow-up.
