The new findings reported in this article are the result of cementless fixation of the ICLH prosthesis has not deteriorated with time; the patellofemoral complications and postoperative limitation of movement seen with the ICLH prosthesis has been resolved by the Freeman-Samuelson design; and cementless press-fit fixation of all three components of the Freeman-Samuelson design resulted in a 1.6% (tibial) revision rate in the first four years.
