Abstract
Successful posterior cruciate ligament-sparing total knee arthroplasty functions in an equivalent fashion to a contralateral normal limb during the mechanical stresses of stair ascent and descent. Motion and force plate analysis reveal highly symmetric gait patterns. Sagittal angles are greater than previously reported for the total condylar prosthesis and are nearly equal to those recorded for the age-matched normal population.
