Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Trabecular metal cones are one option for treating osseous defects during TKA. A total of 83 consecutive TKAs utilizing cones with an average of 40 months follow-up were reviewed. There were 24 males and 59 females, with an average age of 69 years old. Four were complex primary and 79 were revision procedures. Of 83 patients, 10 (12%) required repeat revision surgery (8 infections, one periprosthetic fracture, one aseptic loosening) and overall, 37 of 83 patients (45%) experienced at least one complication. Of 73 unrevised knees, 72 (99%) demonstrated radiographic evidence of osseointegration. Despite a high complication rate in this population, trabecular metal cones represent an attractive option for managing bone loss in complex primary and revision TKA with a high rate of osseointegration.
