Geometric total knee arthroplasty. A two-year follow-up study
MD Skolnick, MB Coventry and DM Ilstrup
In a study of our experience with the first 119 geometric arthroplasties of
the knee done at the Mayo Clinic, reported after a minimum follow-up period
of two years, we noted that relief of pain was the primary goal in 84 per
cent of the cases and this was achieved in the majority. The average total
motion was relatively unchanged but it became more useful postoperatively.
