Abstract

Fixation of total knee components with bone cement is considered the current “gold standard”. Many studies have reported excellent long term results with cemented total arthroplasty and loosening of cemented components is a rare complication in most large clinical series.The aim of this study was to evaluate the viscoelastic properties of spongy bone from proximal human tibial epiphyses and the effect of bone cement on this tissue properties.
