“…In our investigation no significant influence of tibial component rotation on patellofemoral kinematics could be found. Therefore, we cannot support the findings of Berger et al [12] and Figgie et al [23], who attached great importance to the tibial component rotation. Also Heinert et al [1] could not find any difference between mobilebearing and fixed-bearing tibial component in matters of patellar kinematics in their investigation using computer navigation.…”

“…Also Heinert et al [1] could not find any difference between mobilebearing and fixed-bearing tibial component in matters of patellar kinematics in their investigation using computer navigation. In a prospective randomised study, Pagnano et al [24] showed that a rotating platform knee design did not decrease the prevalence of lateral retinacular release, patellar tilt or subluxation in comparison to a posterior-stabilised, fixedbearing knee [23]. A few radiological studies ascribe altered patellofemoral kinematics and the appearance of anterior knee pain to combined femoral and tibial component internal rotation [2,5].…”

“…Patellofemoral failures have been noted in other investigations [3,24,28,32,33,46]. These failures have been associated with poorly designed metal-backed components, patellar complications such as fracture or subluxation, and more subtle problems such as patellar "clunk."…”

“…Correct postoperative alignment is of crucial importance in patellar tracking if complications such as patellar fracture, lateral displacement and dislocation are to be avoided [8,14,17,18,23].…”
