Original Abstract

Total knee joint arthroplasty surgery is very common orthopaedic procedure that treats end-stage degenerative osteoarthritis. The articular surface of a musculoskeletal joint is replaced with metal and plastic components, remodelled, or realigned by osteotomy or some other procedure. The novel design of the knee implant, digital technologies, EBM technology and surface post-processing of Ti6Al4V, allow to reduce the weight of the novel type of the distal femur implant (> 60%) with a higher preservation of the original bone. The EBM samples showed a better combination of tensile strengths, plasticity and fatigue resistance.
