The posterior cruciate-retaining (CR) design offers rotational freedom but risks abnormal kinematics and instability. medial pivot (MP) mimics native joint motion with a high-conformity flat lateral interface. Within clinical studies, the MP outclassed CR design, biomechanical studies are lacking. This study investigates tibiofemoral patellofemoral of both implant designs compared to kinematics. Eight fresh-frozen cadaveric knee specimens underwent total arthroplasty using designs. Testing...
Background: Anterior knee pain is a prevalent issue post total arthroplasty, often necessitating revision surgery. Various factors contribute to this complication, including patellar maltracking and excessive patellofemoral load. Kinematic alignment has emerged as an alternative, showing promising outcomes in clinical studies. However, its impact on biomechanics needs be more adequately understood. This study compared the effects of kinematically versus mechanically aligned arthroplasty...
Worldwide more and primary knee replacements are being performed. Kinematic alignment (KA) as one of many methods surgical has been shown to have a significant impact on kinematics function. The aim the present study was compare KA mechanical (MA) with regard femorotibial kinematics.Eight fresh frozen human specimens were tested rig during active flexion from 30 130°. Within same specimen medial stabilized (MS) implant design used first then MA.The showed internal rotation tibia in compared...
