Sentence examples for mobile bearing components from inspiring English sources

Many other factors (such as loosening of femoral and tibial components, sacrificed or torn ligaments, and mobile bearing components) can increase the wear rate of the bearing surface, which will decrease the component's longevity and increase the risk for osteolysis [ 9- 12].

In addition, 17 ankles were revised because of severe wear or fracture of the mobile bearing component.

In 2006, it became apparent that only the mobile bearing component had an increased rate of revision (AOANJRR 2006 Annual Report).

However, mobile-bearing components showed other types of wear, and significant wear damage was present on the bearing surfaces of the mobile-bearing implants despite a short time of implantation.

No statistically significant clinical advantage could be demonstrated between a fixed or mobile bearing tibial component in UKR at a mean follow-up of 5.7 years [28].

The cemented mobile bearing metal backed patellar component in this system is "modular"; allowing interchangeable usage with either the trochlear component in a PFA or the femoral component of a total knee arthroplasty, thus obviating the need for patellar revision during conversion of PFA to TKA.

The intervention concerned internal fixation arthrodesis of the talocrural joint or arthroplasty with a third generation, three-component mobile bearing prosthesis.

This study investigates the seldom but severe complication of fatigue failure of polyethylene components at mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty designs.

If the femoral component is positioned slightly too far laterally relative to the tibial component, impingement of the mobile bearing on the lateral wall may occur.

We conclude that there is a higher incidence of revision of this fixed bearing design using an all-polyethylene tibial component compared to the mobile bearing design.
