The effect of manufacturing tolerances on the mechanical environment of taper junctions in modular TKR

Abstract: Taper design is known to influence corrosive behavior in taper junctions used in modular orthopaedic devices. Manufacturing tolerance of bore-cone tapers is a critical design parameter due to the effect on taper fit, but the effect of variations in manufacturing tolerance on the mechanics of taper junctions has not been well characterized, particularly in modular total knee replacement (TKR). The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of manufacturing tolerance on stress and micromotion of modular… Show more
