Although the use of constrained cemented arthroplasty to treat distal femoral fractures in elderly patients has some practical advantages over the use of techniques of fixation, concerns as to a high rate of loosening after implantation of these prostheses has raised doubts about their use. We evaluated the results of hinged
We analysed at a mean follow-up of 7.25 years the clinical and radiological outcome of 117 patients (125 knees) who had undergone a primary, cemented, modular Freeman-Samuelson
We performed a prospective, randomised trial of 44 patients to compare the functional outcomes of a posterior-cruciate-ligament-retaining and posterior-cruciate-ligament-substituting

We studied 40 patients in whom the patella was not severely deformed and who were undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis by one surgeon using one type of prosthesis. They were randomly allocated either to have the patella retained or resurfaced with a cemented, all-polyethylene component regardless of the state of the patellar articular cartilage. Apart from removal of osteophytes, no surgery was undertaken on the retained patellae. All 38 surviving patients were evaluated at three years using the HSS knee score and a new, specifically designed Patellar score (maximum score of 30). No
