The position of the patellar component and patellofemoral symptoms were assessed in a series of 72 cemented polyethylene patellar components in total condylar arthroplasties. A small (25 mm) component was used. The minimum follow up was 2 years and maximum 3 years. A lateral retinacular release was
The relation between prosthesis component kinematics and posterior slope of the tibial component in total knee arthroplasty is much debated. Three-dimensional kinematics of the replaced knee was obtained by video fluoroscopy in 23 knees treated by cruciate-retaining or cruciate-substituting arthropl
## Abstract Total knee arthroplasty is a successful procedure to treat pain and functional disability due to osteoarthritis. However, precisely how a total knee arthroplasty changes the kinematics of an osteoarthritic knee is unknown. We used a surgical navigation system to measure normal passive k
