“…Primary postero-stabilised (PS) designs may be used if the ligaments are intact and bone defects are minimal [12], whereas hinged prostheses are necessary in cases of ligament absence/disruption with moderate or severe bone loss [5,15]. Condylar constrained knee (CCK) prostheses are semi-constrained nonhinged implants, which represent an excellent alternative to the hinged prostheses.…”

“…Another option that may be used to achieve adequate symmetry of the extension and flexion gaps is to augment the constraint by using a varus-valgus constraining tibial insert [9]. In the case of global ligamentous laxity, a hinge may be used to achieve adequate stability and symmetric extension and flexion gaps [12]. We were able to achieve symmetric extension and flexion gaps with soft-tissue release and did not require the use of a lateral epicondylar sliding osteotomy or hinge.…”

“…[27][28][29][30] Yang JH et al retrospectively reviewed 50 cases who underwent primary TKA using rotating hinge prosthesis. 28 Their indications included severe primary osteoarthritis with ligament laxity, severe rheumatoid arthritis with extreme ligament instability, bone loss, supracondylar non-union, charcot arthropathy, and posttraumatic arthritis. Results showed substantial improvement of function and reduction of pain.…”
