IMPACT OF THE TYPE OF A PROSTHESIS ON THE BIOMECHANICS OF THE KNEE JOINT

Year:
2017
A difference in the biomechanics of the knee joint after arthroplasty with implants, by preserving the posterior cruciate ligament and its replacement, has been first determined using current multislice computer tomography. In the former case, the endoprosthesis has been proved to reproduce more accurately the kinematics of the healthy knee joint.
