Summary
This trial will compare the effectiveness of two types of partial knee replacements; one that uses a 3-D printed metal component and another that uses cement.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 18-85 who need a medial fixed bearing partial knee replacement and are suitable for both cemented and cementless fixation. It excludes non-English speakers, those with very weak bones, prior high tibial osteotomy with hardware, unsuitable bone quality or cuts during surgery, smokers, or if they need total knee arthroplasty due to advanced arthritis.
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of partial knee replacements: one using a new modular 3-D printed porous metal that doesn't use cement (cementless), and the other using traditional methods where the components are secured with cement (cemented). The goal is to see if there's any difference in clinical outcomes after at least two years.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, generally speaking, potential side effects from knee replacement surgeries can include pain at the site of surgery, swelling, infection risk around the implant area and possible issues related to how well the implant fixes to the bone.
