Mid-term outcomes of medial metal backed and all-polyethylene unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in obese patients: a retrospective propensity-matched analysis
At five-year follow-up, in a matched group of obese MB-UKA and AP-UKA patients, the AP-UKA group achieved better KSFSs and OKSs. Both the AP and the MB tibial components were able to bring about a significant improvement of the most widely used PROMs.
