Abstract

Case: An 82-year-old man sustained a periprosthetic fracture after IlluminOss photodynamic bone stabilization system (PBSS) stabilization for an impending pathologic fracture. Nonoperative management was unsuccessful, and he subsequently underwent operative fixation, which featured lag screw fixation of the spiral distal humeral shaft fracture and osteotomy followed by plate fixation of the pathologic humeral shaft fracture. Conclusion: This is the first article to report this complication with IlluminOss PBSS stabilization and details regarding revision surgery.
