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

## Abstract ## Background One of the goals of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is to balance the loads between the compartments of the knee. An instrumented load cell that measures compartment loads in real time is utilized to evaluate conventional, qualitative methods of achieving this balance. ##
## Abstract Patellar maltracking may result in many patellofemoral joint (PFJ) disorders in the natural and replaced knee. The literature providing quantitative reference for normal PFJ kinematics according to which patellar maltracking could be identified is still limited. The aim of this study wa
## Abstract Glenoid fixation failure has only been grossly characterized. This lack of information hinders attempts to improve fixation because of a lack of methodologies for detecting and monitoring fixation failure. Our goal was twofold: to collect detailed data of glenoid fixation fracture, and
