Does the clinical and radiologic outcomes following total knee arthroplasty using a new design cobalt-chrome tibial plate or predecessor different?

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes for a new tibial component (Attune S +) and the previous design (Attune S) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients using ATTUNE® posterior stabilized (PS) prosthesis and also assessed related factors for the development of tibial radiolucent line(RLL).

Methods

This retrospective study included 362 knees (179 Attune S, 183 Attune S +) with an average 4 years (range, 2-8) follow-up. Clinical outcomes, radiologic parameters and the incidence of RLL around the tibial component were compared through the serial assessment. For the subgroup analysis, radiologic parameters were compared between patients with and without RLL.

Results

There was no significant difference in terms of clinical outcomes and
