his book reviews the LCS Mobile Bearing Arthroplasty which has been
enthusiastically embraced by surgeons worldwide since introduction in
1977. Dr. Frederick Buechel and Dr. Mike Pappas developed a total knee
prosthesis based on the concepts of low contact stress with
unconstrained articulation using a mobile polyethylene bearing and
highly conforming geometry. The long-term clinical results and
evolutionary changes in surgical technique and understanding of total
knee arthroplasty will be discussed. Recent scientific methodologies
including wear simulation and fluoroscopic kinematic analysis have
provided enlightening insight to clinical performance. Future
modifications to the implant system will be described. Surgeons
interested in proposing future designs using the mobile bearing
concept will benefit from the knowledge of this experience.
