Impacted morsellized allograft and cement for revision total knee arthroplasty: a preliminary report of 3 cases.

In 3 cases we have revised a failed knee arthroplasty with intramedullary impaction of morsellized allograft similar to the technique described for the hip. Follow-up after 18, 21 and 28 months showed good clinical and radiographic results.
