A Prospective, Randomized Study Comparing Cemented and Cementless Total Knee Replacement

The purpose of this study is to compare the the Nexgen knee replacement system using cementless fixation with the same system using cemented fixation. At minimum 2-year follow-up, the hypothesis is that NexGen total knee arthroplasties using cementless and cemented fixation will demonstrate no differences in clinical outcome based on Oxford and Knee Society scores, patient-assessed visual analog pain, clinical complications, radiographic fixation and implant survivorship.
