- Knee Surg Relat Res.
- 2018 Sep;30(3):227-233.
- doi: 10.5792/ksrr.18.022
PURPOSE: Obesity is a risk factor for aseptic loosening after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Prophylactic use of tibial stems may enhance tibial fixation in obese patients. The aim of this... -

- Knee Surg Relat Res.
- 2018 Mar;30(1):50-57.
- doi: 10.5792/ksrr.17.079
PURPOSE: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is increasing in frequency and cost. Optimization of discharge location may reduce total expenditure while maximizing patient outcomes. Although preoperative illness rating systems—including the American... -
