598 consecutive New Jersey low-contact stress (LCS) total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) were performed for gonarthrosis. Among these 598 operations, 322 were with rotating platform elements and 276 were with meniscal bearing elements. During 5 to 8 years of follow-up, eight knees had severe symptomatic
In a prospective comparative clinical efficacy and safety study, 58 patients undergoing total hip or knee arthroplasty were randomly allocated to two groups; one received 29 cefamandole intravenously before operation and then 1 g every 6 h parenterally for 3 days and the other received 29 cloxacilli
