Cementless vs. cementless knee replacement for osteoarthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of knee replacements: one where the implant is glued in (cemented) and one where it locks into the bone without glue (cementless). It is for people with knee osteoarthritis who need a first-time total knee replacement.
