Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a cost-effective surgery with a survival rate higher than 90% after 15 years. Nevertheless, patients are unsatisfied in more than 15% of cases. Medial pivot (MP) prosthetic designs were introduced in late 90’s with the aim to reproduce natural knee kinematics. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the survivorship and clinical outcomes of a novel design of MP knee with a minimum follow-up of five years.Keywords
