“…The minimal differences observed based on component design are consistent with previous reports that have been unable to demonstrate a difference in PS versus CR TKA [29,41], mobile bearing versus fixed bearing TKA [28,[30][31][32]49], high-flexion versus standard TKA [18], or sex-specific versus no-sex-specific TKA [7,42,59,61]. The poor results in young patients reported by Price et al [50] were achieved with implants and surgical techniques from more than 10 years ago and it is certainly possible that the improved level of satisfaction of our patients may be due, in part, to improvements in surgical technique and component design.…”

“…Therefore, some researchers suggested that Asian patients should have specially-designed total knee prosthesis systems. However, many previously published reports [9,24] suggest that the Western-designed total knee prosthesis functioned equally or even better (including, ROM, knee score, and revision rate) in Asian patients than Westerners. I believe that any type of Western or Asian manufactured TKA can accommodate subtle differences in anthropometric knee anatomy between Asian and Westerners, regardless of different culture, gender, activity level, and ethnicity.…”

“…Despite the studies demonstrating their results to be comparable between the genders with standard knees [15][16][17][18][19], it has additionally been demonstrated that results are not significantly different in female whether they get a standard or a gender specific knee [8,[10][11][12][13].…”

“…The greatly contemplated gender specific knee system is Zimmer Gender Solutions NexGen Knee (Zimmer Inc., Warsaw, IN). Such examinations comprised unilateral as well as bilateral studies in female and Indian as well as Tai patients [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Although, the available literature, supports a little of gender specific prostheses.…”
