[Total knee replacement in patients under 60 years with high functional demand: functional outcomes and return to sports after an average 2-year follow-up].

This makes the surgical technique difficult in addition to reducing the patient's physical performance. Analyzing the survival rate of implants in young patients, more than 80% is reported in a 25-year follow-up.
