Abstrakt: The long-term functional result of exposed total knee arthroplasty, treated by flap cover, is presented and the results compared with those of a randomly selected control group. The wound was successfully covered and the prosthesis was preserved in 76% of cases, but the final functional score was not as good as in those with primary wound healing.
