Total Knee Arthroplasty Randomized Clinical Trial- Cemented vs. Cementless Tibial Prosthesis Study

The primary purpose of TKA Randomized Clinical Trial- Cemented versus Cementless Tibial
Prosthesis Study will determine whether there is a significant difference in patient-reported
and measured clinical outcomes (e.g. pain, function, length of recovery, and patient
satisfaction) between subjects treated with a cementless tibial prosthesis (the cementless
group) and those treated with cemented tibial prosthesis (the cement group) over the first
two postoperative years. Radiographs will be assessed before surgery and at established
post-operative intervals to determine if there are any significant differences between
patients in the two groups and to assess the influence of component fixation on radiographic
stability over time. Complication and revision rates will also be assessed for comparison.
