Hyperextension following two different designs of fixed-bearing posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty.

The extension angle of the SR group became significantly more extended than that of the MR group during the first two years after TKA. Hence, ideal extension position immediately after SR TKA may be different from that of the MR TKA prosthesis. The preoperative extension angle, SFA and SR prosthesis were factors that were associated with postoperative hyperextension.
