Good long-term results following cementless TKA with a titanium plasma coating.

Purpose: While cemented total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is currently the gold standard for primary osteoarthritis, cementless component fixation has achieved increasingly comparable outcomes due to improvements in both implant designs and surgical technique. Long-term outcomes and survivorship with the TC-Plus cementless, titanium plasma-coated TKA system without patella resurfacing were evaluated.

Methods: A homogenous population of 171 consecutive patients who received 206 primary TC-Plus TKAs without patella resurfacing over a 19-year period was retrospectively reviewed.
