Revision knee arthroplasty presents a number of challenges, not least of which is obtaining
solid primary fixation of implants into host bone. Three anatomical zones exist within both …

Stems improve the mechanical stability of tibial components in total knee replacement
(TKR), but come at a cost of stress shielding along their length. Their advantages include …

Background The purpose of this study was to compare the functional outcomes and implant
survivorship at a minimum of 5 years of follow-up of several reconstruction techniques with …

Background: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) continues to be one of the leading causes of
failure following hip and knee surgery. The diagnostic workflow of PJI includes detailed …

Background and objective Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with modern all-polyethylene tibial
(APT) components has shown high long-term survival rates and comparable results to those …

Aims Metaphyseal tritanium cones can be used to manage the tibial bone loss commonly
encountered at revision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA). Tibial stems provide additional …

Abstract Background and Objective Adequate fixation is a requisite for hinged Total Knee
Arthroplasty (TKA): consequently, several stem solutions are currently available. However …

Adequate fixation is fundamental in revision total knee arthroplasty; consequently, surgeons
must determine the correct set-up for each patient, choosing from numerous stem solutions …

Bone deficiency hinders implant alignment and stabilisation of the bone-implant interface in
revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Treatments for bone defects include bone cement …

Introduction No evidence-based guidelines are available to determine the appropriate stem
length, and whether or not to cement stems in revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) …
