Press-fit condylar total knee replacement

Orthop Clin North Am. 1989 Jan;20(1):89-95.

Abstract

In 1984 the press-fit condylar knee was first introduced and was intended to provide a condylar knee system primarily for posterior cruciate retention that addressed refinements in metallurgy, prosthetic geometry and sizing, cementless fixation, inventory management, and instrumentation. This article addresses the results observed in the use of this prosthesis.
