Results of total knee replacement using an uncemented tibial component.
Fourteen patients (16 knees) underwent total knee arthroplasty with a noncemented tibial component. Clinical evaluation at one year and two years showed a level of function and pain relief comparable to that reported in studies of cemented prostheses. Radiographic studies demonstrated evidence of active bone implant consolidation.
