This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to determine
the mid- to long-term clinical outcomes for a medial-pivot total
knee replacement (TKR) system. The objectives were to synthesise
available survivorship, Knee Society Scores (KSS), and reasons for
revision for this system. A systematic search was conducted of two online databases to
identify sources of survivorship, KSS, and reasons for revision.
Survivorship results were compared with values in the National Joint
Registry of England, Wales, and Northern Ireland (NJR).Objectives
Methods
The objective of this study was to compare the early migration
characteristics and functional outcome of the Triathlon cemented
knee prosthesis with its predecessor, the Duracon cemented knee
prosthesis (both Stryker). A total 60 patients were prospectively randomised and tibial
component migration was measured by radiostereometric analysis (RSA)
at three months, one year and two years; clinical outcome was measured
by the American Knee Society score and the Knee Osteoarthritis and
Injury Outcome Score.Objectives
Methods
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of posterior
cruciate ligament (PCL) retention, PCL recession, and PCL excision
during cruciate-retaining total knee replacement. A total of 3018 anatomic graduated component total knee replacements
were examined; 1846 of these retained the PCL, 455 PCLs were partially
recessed, and in 717 the PCL was completely excised from the back
of the tibia.Objectives
