In recent decades, cementless implants have been widely used in clinical practice to replace
missing organs, to replace damaged or missing bone tissue or to restore joint functionality …

As the number of younger and more active patients treated with total knee arthroplasty (TKA)
continues to increase, consideration of better fixation as a means of improving implant …

Introduction: Since 1996 we have been using cementless fixation with hydroxyapatite (HA)
coating. The purpose of this paper is to compare survivorship of a series of 100 cemented …

Multifunctional materials have been described to meet the diverse requirements of implant
materials for femoral components of uncemented total knee replacements. These materials …

Aims The aim of the study was to investigate whether the primary stability of press-fit
acetabular components can be improved by altering the impaction procedure. Methods …

Aseptic loosening is the primary cause of revision in cementless total knee arthroplasty
(TKA), emphasizing the importance of strong initial stability for long-term implant success …

It is essential to calculate micromotions at the bone-implant interface of an uncemented
femoral total knee replacement (TKR) using a reliable computational model. In the current …

Background: Total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) with cementless fixation have been studied in
multiple series with varying success. The aim of this study was to prepare a systematic …

Sufficient primary stability through interference fit is required for bone ingrowth and
subsequent long-term fixation of cementless knee replacement implants, and can be …

Background During implantation of an uncemented femoral knee implant, press-fit
interference fit provides the primary stability. It is assumed that during implantation a …
