A randomized RSA study concentrating especially on continuous migration
Acta Orthop. 2016 Jun;87(3):262-760 patients with knee osteoarthritis and scheduled for total knee arthroplasty were randomized to receive either a newer-generation Triathlon total knee system, or older-generation Duracon total knee system.
