GENESISTM II Total Knee Arthroplasty: Five-to-Eight Year Results
نویسنده
چکیده
A consecutive series of 562 knees using the GENESISTM II Total Knee Arthroplasty system were performed by the same surgeon. This implant system featured a design that allowed for neutral implantation of the femoral component while still creating a balanced flexion/extension space. Of the 530 cases that were followed through a 60 to 105 month period, survivorship was at 98.9%, and 98.2% had excellent or good results. Two knees were revised for late sepsis. Four other knees required surgery – three for anterior knee pain (AKP) and one for popliteus tendonitis.
