Synopsis
77 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee were randomized to receive a total knee replacement with either a standard fixed-bearing posterior cruciate ligament-preserving design (FB-S) or a high-flexion rotating-platform posterior-stabilized design (RP-F). Throughout the course of the study, active non-weight-bearing flexion along with functional range of motion were measured to determine which t...
