Conclusion Based on the small number of studies with appropriate statistical analysis , we are unable to reach a clear conclusion in the clinical performance of medial stabilized knee replacement construct .
Background Medial stabilized  total knee joint replacement ( TKJR ) construct is design ed to closely replicate the kinematics of the knee .
Little is known regarding comparison of clinical functional outcomes of patients utilising vali date d patient reported outcome measures ( PROM ) after medial stabilized TKJR and other construct design s. Purpose To perform a systematic review of the available literature related to the assessment of clinical functional outcomes following a  TKJR  employing a medial stabilized construct design .
Fixed versus rotating platform total knee arthroplasty: a prospective, randomized, single-blind study.
The purpose of this r and omized , single-blind clinical trial was to compare a rotating platform ( RP ) total knee arthroplasty to a fixed-bearing ( FB ) total knee arthroplasty . Ninety-five knees in 69 patients were implanted by 2 surgeons . There were no significant differences in the preoperative demographics . At a minimum of 2-year follow-up , clinical outcomes and complication rates were similar , with the exception that the RP group had significantly better stair-climbing scores ( P = .04 ) . Postoperative range of motion was equally good in both groups ( FB knees , 1 ° -125 ° ; RP knees , 1 - 126 ° ) . There were no bearing dislocations in the RP group . In conclusion , this RP design performs at least as well as the FB version , and the RP patients reported better stair-climbing ability . Enthusiasm for this finding should be tempered by the relatively small sample size
