High congruency MB insert design: stabilizing knee joint even with PCL deficiency.

Results demonstrated how the high congruency of the mobile bearing design is able to guarantee proper knee stability and kinematics even when the PCL is deficient. Instead, the fixed bearing insert, with lower congruency, is not able, in the absence of the PCL, to stabilize the joint inducing irregular kinematic pattern and component dislocation. Surgeons will have to consider these findings to guarantee the best outcome for the patient and the related change in stability in case of PCL deficiency.
