Purpose
knee arthroplasty, cam, TKA, UC
This study compared the 5-year results of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)-sacrificing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with either a post and cam posterior-stabilized (PS) device, a dished, congruent condylar-stabilizing (CS) device, or a deep-dished ultra-congruent (UC) device. The hypothesis was that the clinical and radiographic outcomes would be equivalent. CS and PS participants were part of a prospective, randomized trial, and UC participants were part of a separate prospective, non-randomized protocol that was otherwise identical. A kinematic alignment surgical technique was utilized.
