Effect of posterior tibial slope and implant material on the bone-implant system following TKA: A finite element study

Effect of posterior tibial slope and implant material on the bone-implant system following TKA: A finite element study

A posterior stabilized type of total knee replacement (TKR) device was used to assess the impact of material of tibial tray and varying posterior tibial slopes on the periprosthetic bone region. Two type of tray material viz. all-polyethylene (AP) metal-backed (MB) and four posterior tibial slopes (...
