The Effects of Cyclic Loading and Motion on the Implant–Cement Interface and Cement Mantle of PEEK and Cobalt–Chromium Femoral Total Knee Arthroplasty Implants: A Preliminary Study

This study investigated the fixation of a cemented PEEK femoral TKA component. PEEK and CoCr implants were subjected to a walking gait cycle for 10 million cycles (MC), 100,000 cycles or 0 cycles (unloaded control). A method was developed to assess the fixation at the cement–implant interface, which...
