With increasing longevity, more patients older than age 95 in Middle East now are becoming candidates for total knee arthroplasty. Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) in the elderly population is becoming increasingly prevalent. This study aimed to assess the outcomes of TKA in patients aged >95 years in Middle East, and their post-operative outcomes. Total knee surgery can be performed safely in patients older than 95 years old with excellent pain relief and enhanced quality of life. The surgeon should be aware of the patient's past medical history because this predisposes to postoperative morbidity. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of TKR in patients above 95 years old in the current literature. This case provides valuable insight into the feasibility and success of TKR in this age group.
