Better quadriceps and hamstring strength is achieved after Total knee Arthroplasty with single radius femoral prostheses: a retrospective study based on isokinetic and isometric data

Abstract Background Strength deficits, muscle imbalances, and quadriceps inhibition are common after the total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It was suggested that theoretically single radius (SR) femoral protheses could provide longer extensor moment arm compared to the multiple radius (MR) design. Howev...
