Evaluating Stress Patterns in Four Modular Total Knee Arthroplasty Designs

EasyChair Preprint 14330, version 2

Abstract

This study compares stresses comprehensively in four modular total knee arthroplasty (TKA) prosthesis designs using finite element analysis. The aim is to evaluate the mechanical performance and durability of these designs under physiological loading conditions. Each prosthesis was analyzed for stress distribution in critical regions such as the femoral component, tibial insert, and bone-implant interface. The results highlight significant variations in stress concentrations, which have implications for prosthesis selection and patient outcomes. The findings provide valuable insights into the biomechanical behavior of TKA prostheses, guiding future design improvements and clinical applications.
