Posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty kinematics and joint laxity: A hybrid biomechanical study
BackgroundPosterior-stabilized (PS)-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) arose as an alternative to cruciate-retaining (CR)-TKA in the 1970s. Since then, it...

Predictors of reoperation and survival experience for primary total knee arthroplasty in young patients with degenerative and inflammatory arthritis
IntroductionWhile total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is typically implemented in patients > 65 years old, young patients may need to undergo TKA for pain...
