Biomechanical effect of anatomical tibial component design on load distribution of medial proximal tibial bone in total knee arthroplasty: finite element analysis indicating anatomical design prevents stress-shielding

Aims: This study aimed to identify the effect of anatomical tibial component (ATC) design on load distribution in the periprosthetic tibial bone of Koreans using finite element analysis (FEA). Methods: 3D finite element models of 30 tibiae in Korean women were created. A symmetric tibial component (...
