| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Kinematics vary, sometimes in important ways, among the different types of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) designs, yet differences between the in vivo mechanisms of cam-post engagement in rotating-platform posterior-stabilized (PS) TKA, bicruciate-stabilized TKA, and fixed-bearing PS TKA designs remain largely uncharacterized. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: The objective of this study was to determine the cam-post mechanism interaction for subjects implanted with three different TKA designs. METHODS: In vivo, analysis was conducted for patients implanted with nine rotating-platform PS TKAs, five knees with a fixed-bearing PS TKA, and 10 knees with a bicruciate-stabilized TKA while performing a deep knee bend. Three-dimensional kinematics of the implant components were determined by analysis of fluoroscopic images during flexion. The distances between the interacting surfaces were measured throughout flexion and instances and locations of contact were identified. RESULTS: Seven of the 10 bicruciate-stabilized knees analyzed had the femoral component engaged with the anterior aspect of the tibial post at full extension. Posterior cam-post engagement occurred at 34° for the bicruciate-stabilized (range, 17°-68°), 93° for the fixed-bearing PS (range, 88°-100°), and at 97° (range, 90°-104°) for rotating-platform PS TKA. In bicruciate-stabilized and fixed-bearing PS knees, the contact initially occurred on the medial aspect of the posterior surface of the tibial post and then moved centrally and superiorly with increasing flexion. For rotating-platform PS TKA, it was located centrally on the posterior surface of the post at all times. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that mobility of the polyethylene might play an important role in ensuring central cam-post interaction in PS TKA. The polyethylene insert rotates axially in accordance with the rotating femur, maintaining central cam-post contact. This phenomenon was not observed in the fixed-bearing PS TKAs analyzed in this study. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: We speculate that this centralized symmetrical contact between the cam and posterior surface of the post could be beneficial clinically in terms of reducing wear of the posterior surface and particularly at the medial extremes of it. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
