Knee arthroplasty/replacement tibial components

Despite its successful track record, wear and damage of the UHMWPE insert compromises the longevity of knee arthroplasty. Osteolysis, a rare occurrence with all-UHMWPE tibial components, has been documented with increasing frequency in modular knee replacements. Clearly, improved wear behavior of the UHMWPE insert would be advantageous from the perspective of reducing the risk of osteolysis and aseptic loosening. [Pg.182]
