The optimal angle of screw for using cement-screw technique to repair tibial defect in total knee arthroplasty: a finite element analysis

Abstract Background The cement-screw technique is a convenient method to repair tibial plateau defects in primary and revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, the optimal angle of screw insertions is unknown. This study aimed to perform a finite element analysis (FEA) to determine the optima...
