Description

Fangxing Wang, Jie Zhao, Weijie He, Huazheng He, and Qiang Wang model crooked knee parts in partial knee replacement in a 2025 study. Half knee implants spare the joint, but fixed bearing designs punish small placement errors, and their stress effects were little mapped.

A standard knee model hosts thigh parts shifted or tilted in set ways. Sideways shift raised insert stress by near nine percent at five millimeters. Tilt either way raised it more, past eleven percent. Ligament and spare cartilage stresses shifted in telling patterns too. The maps give surgeons placement targets that keep stresses low.
