Tibial baseplate position and posterior cruciate ligament status impact patient-reported outcomes in conforming dual-pivot bearing total knee arthroplasty

Background: In an effort to optimize clinical outcomes and enhance stability, ultracongruent bearings have been increasingly used in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The importance of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and optimal sagittal tibial baseplate position in ultracongruent bearing...
