![]() ![]() Harato K, Bourne RB, Victor J, Snyder M, Hart J, Ries MD.Can high-flexion tibial inserts improve range of motion after posterior cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty?Orthopedics. The revision rate in this report was 2.4% at 5 years (2.0 to 2.9%). In the 7 th UK National Joint Registry report, the Genesis 2 had 7% of the primary knee replacement and 5% of the revision market, and was growing in popularity. This device has found favour with patients who have a known nickel sensitivity as the nickel content is very low. The Genesis II knee is also available in Oxinium ™, which is zirconium, oxidised in such a way that the surface becomes a ceramic, is therefore smoother and is associated with lower in vitro wear rates. There are standard and minimal access instruments available. The standard femoral implant is manufactured in cobalt chrome - the tibial tray is polished titanium, and the polyethylene locks using a dovetail mechanism. Recent studies have suggested the deep flexion tibial insert (with a lower posterior margin to facilitate rollback) was associated with higher flexion than standard inserts (around 7 degrees more)(Crow 2010), but factors including BMI and preoperative flexion are likely to be more important (Harato 2008, McCalden 2009, 2010, Zeh 2010). High flexion knee and deep-dished tibial inserts are available, as is an all-polyethylene tibia in cruciate retaining or posterior stabilized versions. The system is said to allow compatibility between a femoral component of a given size and up to four sizes of tibia.Īvailable versions include cruciate retaining, posterior stabilized, and constrained arthroplasties. ![]() The features of this device include a deeper and more lateralized trochlear groove than earlier designs, an externally rotated femoral component (meaning the femoral cuts are performed in neutral rotation relative to the epicondylar axis, but the implant has a thicker posterolateral femoral condyle to compensate) and an anatomic asymmetrical tibia. The Genesis II Total Knee System is a cemented primary and revision knee replacement system from Smith and Nephew, implanted since the 1990s. ![]()

![]() At 1,739 feet high, the imposing rocket-shaped structure literally towers over the surrounding buildings, providing enough room for office space, luxury apartment, and a hotel. Tianjin CTF Finance Centre – Tianjin, China – 1,739 feetĪnother new addition to the list, the Tianjin CTF Finance Centre, was designed to function as a hub of economic growth in Tianjin, China. The structure was officially completed in 2018 but is already an unmistakable feature of the Beijing Central Business District skyline. While this tower is officially called “CITIC Tower,” it has earned the universal nickname China Zun for its similarity to an ancient Chinese wine vessel of the same name. The unique stacked appearance of the tower was inspired by the Chinese pagoda, and concerts and parties are frequently hosted on the observation deck. At 1,667 feet tall, it still holds the record for the world’s tallest building located in a major earthquake zone, and was designed to withstand any earthquake ranking up to 9.0 on the Richter magnitude scale. Taipei 101 – Taipei, Taiwan – 1,667 feetĪfter it was built in 2004, Taipei 101 held the title for five years until 2009. List of the World’s Tallest Buildings 10. Please note that non-building structures, such as towers, are not included in this list. Here is a list of the tallest buildings in the world. However, the last decade has seen many impressive new structures take to the skies to snag the record, most of them existing on the Asian continent. ![]() The world’s tallest building was a once a title that was rarely surpassed.

Price Range: Moderate, $11 – $30 611 Trinity St Austin, TX 78701 Stony’s is cooking up some home runs out of this truck so don’t be afraid to try this truck after a night out on the town. The pizza was not perfect, but the love, appre- ciation and attention to detail is there. The cheese was some of the best tasting cheese we have had on a pizza recently and the sauce was light but flowed so perfectly with the great peppero- nis that had a nice char on them. While it lacked the crisp or browning it was at least cooked all of the way through. The bake you get on the conveyor is not perfect (typically lack- ing some crunch and structure to the crust) but it did a sufficient job nonethe- less. We quickly started eating it and were very happy with the flavor. After the quick 8 minute bake it was ready to be served. He hand-stretched some fresh dough topping it with some quality sauce (Stanislaus) and a very heavy-handed dose of cheese with pepperoni on half. ![]() Options tend to be limited inside a truck, so it was not surprising to see them using a little conveyor belt oven. While the pie was baking we went around to the front of the truck to watch him and see what they were using. As we arrived we were greeted by the son, he went over some options (slices, pies, prices) and we elected to get a full pie.
