Abstract
The article discusses a study investigating the long term experience of using contact stress rotating platform (LCS RP) TKA design knee in Indian population with a minimum follow-up period of 10 years. The results showed 93.2 percent survival of LCS knee at follow up of 12.3 years, and an average postoperative range of motion (ROM) of 102 degrees. A comparison of these results with similar studies is presented along with the limitations.
