Total knee replacement (TKR) is the standard treatment for advanced stage knee osteoarthritis. The introduction of the mobile-bearing (MB) design has given rise to a series of theoretical advantages compared to fixed-bearing (FB) implants, although current literature does not reveal significant differences between the designs. The aim of this study was to estimate the clinical results of 2 cemented total knee prosthetic designs: an MB and an FB design.
