Background  Reports of diverse outcomes in modular mini-keel tibial componentry for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have raised concerns about early aseptic loosening. Cruciate-retaining (CR) prostheses, using mini-keel implants, have yet to be reported and compared to posterior-stabilizing (PS) designs.    Methods  A retrospective, case-matched study of 91 consecutive TKAs ( n  = 46 CR;  n  = 45 PS prostheses), using modular mini-keel tibial componentry with a 45-mm drop down stem extension, was conducted. The Knee Society Score functional survey, radiographic analysis including alignment and periprosthetic radiolucency, TKA prosthesis longevity, and surgical complications were reported and compared between CR and PS groups.    Results  The Knee Society Score at 5-year follow-up averaged 81.67 ± 11.97 and 80.12 ± 14.16 in the CR and PS groups, respectively ( p  = 0.29). The femorotibial angle averaged 5.85° ± 2.62° and 5.85° ± 3.27° valgus in the CR and PS groups, respectively ( p  = 0.60). The average tibial component angle was 0.46° ± 1.6° and 0.61° ± 1.3° varus in the CR and PS groups, respectively ( p  = 0.30); posterior inclination averaged 2.28° ± 2.36° and 1.93° ± 2.72° in the CR and PS groups, respectively ( p  = 0.51). Radiolucency was noted in 17 zones of the CR group and in 9 zones of the PS group ( p  = 0.24). Three TKAs required further surgery: one locking plate fixation for a periprosthetic tibial fracture (PS group) and two revision TKAs (one CR infection and one PS fracture).    Conclusion  Modular mini-keel tibial components showed good reliability and results with both CR and PS prostheses in minimally invasive surgery TKA.
