We evaluated implant survivorship, reoperation rates, and complication rates of a group of patients who had total knee arthroplasty with a third-generation cemented prosthetic device using cruciate-retaining and posterior-stabilized designs at 5 to 8 years followup. Three hundred thirty-four consecutive primary total knee arthroplasties (186 cruciate retaining and 148 posterior stabilized) were done in 287 patients at our institution during a 2-year period. Kaplan Meier survivorship using revision for any reason and revision for aseptic loosening as endpoints were 95.9% and 99.5% respectively at 8 years. Nine patients (four with cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasties, five with posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasties; 3.1%) had reoperations for any reason. No patients had reoperation for problems related to the patellofemoral joint. Thirty-two patients (11.1%) had intraoperative or postoperative complications. There were no differences in any of the outcomes analyzed between patients who had cruciate-retaining or posterior-stabilized total knee replacements. Our results show that with appropriate patient selection and meticulous attention to surgical technique, excellent clinical and radiographic results can be achieved with a third-generation total knee arthroplasty system at intermediate followup. Level of Evidence: Therapeutic study, Level III-2 (retrospective cohort study).
