Aseptic loosening of the tibial component remains a major cause of failure in total knee arthroplasty and may be related, directly or indirectly, to micromotion. Therefore, good fixation of the tibial component is a prerequisite to achieve long-term success of the implant. Cementing technique is one
## Abstract This study measured the vertical displacement of three kinds of cementless tibial components [Porous Coated Anatomical (PCA), Tricon, and Whiteside], under eccentric loading up to 2,225 N. Displacement between the tibial tray and the proximal tibia was measured with linear variable diff
## Out of this number, 21 were lost to follow-up because of death (in 16), revision (2) due to infection, and failure to attend (3). The post-operative alignment of 101 prostheses were compared to the incidence of radiolucencies around the tibial component at 5 years follow-up. The mechanical axi
