Evaluation of the bone mineral density (BMD) was performed in the distal femur around the femoral component of a total knee prosthesis. A total of 48 females were enrolled for this study, including 14 with osteoarthritis of one knee undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with an Osteonics prosthes

## Abstract __Purposes__: The importance of the femoral sagittal bowing on total knee arthroplasty is underโrecognized. The bowing could lead to potential errors in positioning of the femoral component if it is ignored. We aimed to document the femoral sagittal bowing at different segments of the C
## Abstract This study sought to determine the similarities between features of calculated stressโshielding and observed bone loss in the distal femur after total knee replacement. Stressโshielding was determined by comparing the magnitudes and distributions of strain energy density, calculated usi
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives The KYOCERA Physio Hinge Total Knee System Type III (PHKIII) was developed to reconstruct bony defects of the distal femur. The PHKIII is originative in that the metallic parts are fully made of titanium alloy, and this prosthesis has a unique semiโrotating
