Large Reduction in Postoperative Posterior Tibial Slope Risks Anterior Collapse of the Tibial Component in Fixed-Bearing Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty

Large Reduction in Postoperative Posterior Tibial Slope Risks Anterior Collapse of the Tibial Component in Fixed-Bearing Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty

Background: Although the posterior tibial slope (PTS) of the tibial component in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is recommended to be between 3° and 7°, variations in preoperative PTS are wide. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of the changes in preoperative and postoperativ...
