摘要

This is a retrospective study comparing the clinical outcomes of mobile vs fixed medial unicompartmental knee replacements. Patients were identified from a prospectively collected database. Demographic data and pre- and postoperative outcomes (Oxford, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Short Form Health Survey-12, and satisfaction) were collected-104 knees (90 patients) with minimum 2-years of follow-up: 37 mobile and 67 fixed-bearing. At baseline, the median age was 60 years (mobile) and 66 (fixed); body mass index was significantly higher (32) for the mobile group than for the fixed (28). At follow-up, the groups differed only in the Oxford score: median 83 (mobile) and 90 (fixed). There is no difference in outcomes between mobile and fixed unicompartmental knee replacements.
