This prospectively blinded randomized controlled study evaluated the difference in the functional and radiological outcomes in patients who received a press-fit condylar Sigma cemented cruciate-substituting total knee arthroplasty with either a rotating platform (RP) or a fixed bearing (FB). There were 51 joints in 49 patients: 24 joints in the RP group (mean follow-up, 43 months) and 27 joints in the FB group (mean follow-up, 40 months). At baseline, there was no significant difference in age, body mass index, preoperative diagnosis, Charnley class, range of motion, clinical and functional scores, between the RP and FB groups. At mid-term follow up both the RP and FB give equivalent results, but patients with the RP tended to have a higher activity level score.
