Posterior stability in fixed-bearing versus mobile-bearing total knee replacement: a radiological comparison of two implants

摘要

Posterior tibial translation in total knee replacement (TKR) could be one major factor for PE wear, delamination and loosening of the tibial component due to increased shear forces and component-to-bone interface stress. The aim of this study was to assess the posterior stability of two different designs of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) substituting TKR.
