Objective: To compare the effectiveness of partial versus intact posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)-retaining in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with cruciate-retaining (CR) prosthesis.
Methods: A total of 200 patients with osteoarthritis, who met the selection criteria and proposed unilateral TKA with CR prosthesis, were included in the study and randomly assigned into two groups ( =100). The patients were treated with intact retention of the double bundles of PCL in intact group and with partial resection of the anterior lateral bundle of PCL and the anterior bone island at the time of intraoperative tibial osteotomy in partial group.

This is an experimental study. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) retaining bicruciate retaining (BCR) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have the potential to restore normal knee kinematics and thus improve patient outcome. Limited studies have examined the relationship between component alignment and patient-reported outcome measures (PROM).

Background: Physical activity is recognized as one of the factors that influence bone mineral density (BMD) and bone quality after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). According to biomechanical analyses after posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) retaining (PCLR) and substituting (PCLS) TKA, each implant design has different kinematics and kinetics. The purposes of this study were: (1) to perform within-patient comparisons of the midterm and long-term effects of PCL retention in mobile-bearing TKA on proximal femur and tibia BMD and calcaneus bone quality measured using ultrasound and (2) to identify correlations between them.

Purpose: One of the key factors responsible for altered kinematics and joint stability following contemporary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is resection of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). However, ACL retention can present several technical challenges, and in some cases may not be viable due to an absent or nonfunctional ACL. Therefore, the goal of this research was to investigate whether substitution of the ACL through an anterior post mechanism could improve kinematic deficits of contemporary posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) retaining implants.

Purpose: Whether the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) should be retained or substituted in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains an issue of concern. The purpose of this study was to perform within-patient comparisons of mid- and long-term clinical outcomes after mobile-bearing TKA using PCL-retaining (PCLR) and PCL-substituting (PCLS) implant designs.
Methods: Clinical outcomes were assessed in thirty-eight patients (76 knees) who underwent bilateral scheduled staged TKA with a PCLR design on one side and a PCLS design on the other.
