2019, Journal of ArthroplastyCitation Excerpt :Several authors have demonstrated this phenomenon using fluoroscopy [100,130–134] (Video 3). Studies suggest that edge-loading the insert during FCLO may accelerate wear [98,102,135,136]. In a knee joint simulator, in the absence of FCLO, MB TKAs exhibited a lower PE wear rate than FB TKAs [137].
