The biomechanical effect of different posterior tibial slopes on the tibiofemoral joint after posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty

Abstract Background Different posterior tibial slopes (PTS) after posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty (PS-TKA) may lead to different biomechanical characteristics of knee joint. This cadaveric study was designed to investigate the tibiofemoral kinematics and contact pressures after PS-TKA w...
