Knee arthroplasty/replacement biomechanics

This chapter contains four main sections covering TKA and, where applicable, UKA. The first section reviews the biomechanical considerations of knee arthroplasty that distinguish it from hip replacement. The second section describes the survivorship of TKA and UKA, and outlines measures of clinical performance for UHMWPE in knee arthroplasty. The third section is devoted to wear and osteolysis in TKA. In the final section of this chapter, alternatives to metal-on-conventional UHMWPE articulation for knee arttiroplasty are described. [Pg.153]
