Approximately one of five pa-tients who undergo TKA are dissatisfied with the results of that
intervention; to try to improve on this statistic, implant manufacturers have come up with …

Background Some researchers have suggested that achieving good component coverage
over the host bone during TKA (while avoiding implant overhang) may help achieve durable …

Purpose The purpose of the current study is to investigate the inadequacy of fit between the
human distal femur and the knee implants offerings and describe the available strategies to …

Background: The correct sizing of the components in both anteroposterior and mediolateral
(ML) dimensions is crucial for the success of a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The size of the …

question in knee surgery is of course, should an implant be designed to accommodate 90 …

INTRODUCTION During total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the pursuit of accurate alignment,
proper bone cuts, and good soft tissue balancing sometimes can result in the overhang of …

Background: Anatomical variation may represent a challenge in achieving a close fit
between a prosthesis and a patient's osseous geometry in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The …

Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the femoral fit in Asian patients during
total knee arthroplasty by examining whether (1) the advanced single-option implant …

A total knee arthroplasty system offers more distal femoral implant anterior–posterior (AP)
sizes than its predecessor. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of increased …

Purpose Unexplained pain and stiffness after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) often result from
mismatch between implant geometry and knee morphology, which depends on patient size …
