Summary

Trabecular Metal(TM) is a relatively new technology and its use in knee replacement is quite different from the more conventional total knee replacement (arthroplastie). The aim of incorporating TMM into the material used for the knee replacement (tibial prostheses) is to improve initial fixation of the prosthesis at the time of implantation (surgery) and to improve long term prosthesis survival by encouraging and improving bone ingrowth.
