Reason for revision

Group Implant design Reason for revision (number of implants)*
Infection Loosening Instability Fracture Patellar problems Other Unknown
Conforming CCK Insall/Burstein® II 11 (48%) 1 (4%) 1 (4%) 1 (4%) 1 (4%) 5 (22%) 3 (13%)
PS Insall/Burstein® II 6 (40%) 1 (7%) 1 (7%) 0 (0%) 0 (0%) 3 (20%) 4 (27%)
Less conforming MG® II 8 (26%) 2 (6%) 4 (13%) 3 (10%) 7 (23%) 3 (10%) 4 (13%)

* Excluding patellar problems, a known issue with the MG II® system, the components in the conforming and less conforming groups were removed for similar (p = 0.25) reasons; PS = posterior-stabilized; CCK = constrained condylar knee.
