Table 2.
The lateral tilt, medial tilt and sulcus angles of the femoral trochlea calculated based on 0° cross-sections of three-dimensional models of native and prosthetic knees (n = 28)
| 0° cross-section | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Lateral tilt angle (°) | Medial tilt angle (°) | Sulcus angle (°) | |
| MP | 15.5 | 9.8 | 172.6 |
| Triathlon | 13.3 | 11.4 | 173.2 |
| NRG | 13.9 | 12.1 | 173.5 |
| NexGen | 12.5 | 13.2 | 172.3 |
| Native knee | 16.4 (2.9) | 4.5 (5.3) | 159.1 (6.7) |
All parameters are reported as mean or mean (standard deviation)
Significant differences (p < 0.05) between the native and prosthetic knees were noted for all angles evaluated
