متن کاملWear Comparison of Fixed vs. Mobile Bearing Total Knee Replacements
INTRODUCTION: The debate between fixed-bearing and mobile-bearing systems continues due to the lack of clinical evidence showing survivorship of one to be superior to the other [1,2]. Delport et al report similar tibiofemoral kinematic patterns with respect to axial rotation during flexion and also femorotibial translation [3]. Conversely, Huang et al show a significant difference between the t...
