The abrasion observed in ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) total knee arthroplasty component retrievals is the result of high cyclical loads, which act on the tibial plateau during daily ambulation. This dynamic process influences in vivo component...

Restoration of normal knee joint function through surgical reconstruction is dependent upon load sharing between the implant and surrounding soft tissue structures. Mobile bearing knee designs offer the advantage of maximum conformal geometry while diminishing...
