  1. 1. Total knee arthroplasty : Alternative aspects on fixation, design and postoperative treatment

    Författare :Gunnar Adalberth; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Total knee arthroplasty; RSA; migration; all-polyethylene; drainage; cement; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : Total knee arthroplasty as a treatment of severe gonarthrosis has become a great success, but tibial component loosening is still a major reason for failure. When total knee arthroplasty was introduced, only all-polyethylene (AP) tibial components were available. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Fixation of the cemented tibial component : a radiostereometric analysis

    Författare :Hans Christian Hyldahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Aseptic loosening of the tibial component was the major mode for failure in early uni-(UKA) and total condylar knee arthroplasty (TKA). Metal-backing (MB) was introduced to solve the fixation problem of the tibial component, based on biomechanical experiments. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Total hip arthroplasty is a very successful procedure. Despite this fact, however, a certain portion of patients has to be revised. One major reason for revision is the wear of the polyethylene leading to loosening and osteolysis. LÄS MER
