Noiles total knee replacement procedure

We report preliminarily on 32 Noiles total knee replacements performed during a 32month period, with a detailed account of those results, including 11 cases (9 patients) followed up for 24 to 32 months, and an illustrative case report. We had excellent results in 31 cases. The Noiles prosthesis function met the standards of function reported by Wilson and Venters,1 using a system developed at the University of North Carolina for evaluating the results of total knee replacement, and also passed the standards referred to by Kettlekamp and Nasca.2.
