The purpose of this study was to evaluate the complications related to the prosthesis design in patients managed with cemented total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with the anterior-posterior glide (APG) mobile bearing prosthesis. One hundred eighty three total knee arthroplasties were performed using APG Low Contact Stress mobile bearing prosthesis (Depuy, Warsaw, IN) on 146 patients with an average of 8.4 years follow-up (range, 7 to 10 years). Patients were evaluated clinically and radiologically according to the American Knee Society clinical scoring system. The anteroposterior translation, anterior soft tissue impingements, and complications were assessed at the follow-up periods.Purpose
