  "abstract": "Modern improvements in design and materials have led to a recent resurgence in the popularity of cementless total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Although early catastrophic failure is known to infrequently occur in cemented constructs, it is uncommon in modern designs of cementless knee systems. Here, we report a 70-year-old female with a case of early fracture of the tibial component in a cementless, highly porous titanium-coated baseplate (Triathlon Tritanium, Stryker Orthopaedics), occurring within 20 months of the index procedure. Our case was successfully managed with a cemented tibial cone and stem construct; however, the etiology of failure remains uncertain. Tibial baseplate fracture following TKA with modern cementless titanium three-dimensional -printed porous implants is scarcely reported in the literature, and a high index of suspicion should be maintained in the setting of unexplained pain even at short-term follow-up.",
