Core Tip	When dealing with periprosthetic fractures around a total knee replacement it is essential to consider the fracture site and configuration to allow selection of an implant that provides optimal fixation. When managing extremely distal femoral fractures a non-anatomic locking plate, such as Proximal Humeral Internal Locking System, may provide an option for fixation other than the available site-specific plates.
