Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine which prosthesis is better in total knee arthroplasty

Detailed description

Theoretical advantages of mobile-bearing devices led surgeons to use these prostheses instead of fixed-bearing devices as traditional implants. This study was designed to compare Fixed-bearing versus Mobile-bearing Prosthesis in Total Knee Arthroplasty through a five-year follow-up.

Conditions

• Osteoarthritis
