Evaluating polyethylene, polyether-ether-ketone, and metal-on-metal locking mechanism survival in Modular Universal Tumour and Revision System knee reconstructions for oncological indications
Alterations in prosthetic materials have not decreased the revision risk for locking mechanism failure. Besides locking mechanism material, no other patient- or prosthesis-related risk factors for locking mechanism failure were identified. Improvement of the locking mechanism is warranted since revision exposes patients to the risk of serious secondary complications.
