DEEP-VEIN THROMBOSIS, COMPLICATIONS
A total of 55 patients were enrolled in the trial, with 48 (37 males and 11 females) completing the study, as depicted in Fig. Flowchart of included participantsComparison of baseline information and surgical information between the two groupsThere was no statistically significant difference in mean cement penetration on postoperative X-rays between the PEEK group (2.49 ± 0.61 mm) and the CoCrMo group (2.53 ± 0.68 mm) (Comparison of thickness of mean cement penetration between the two groupsBox and whisker plot of mean cement mantle. Whiskers represent range, boxes represent 25th and 75th percentile, line represents medianHowever, knee clinical scores, functional scores, and visual analog scale (VAS) scores at 1-year postoperative did not show any statistically significant differences between the PEEK group and CoCrMo groups (Comparison of knee clinical outcomes between the two groupsNo patient was readmitted or underwent revision surgery. Out of all patients, three in the PEEK group and 6 in the CoCrMo group were diagnosed with deep-vein thrombosis, but no statistically significant difference was found between the groups (Comparison of complications 1 year after surgery between the two groups
