Increase in the Tibial Slope Reduces Wear after Medial Unicompartmental Fixed-Bearing Arthroplasty of the Knee

Figure 7

View from above of a left tibia with an implanted tibial component and the inlay on the medial side. Grey = the internal torque applied by the simulator. With an increased tibial slope in the medial compartment this force has to act against the tibial slope and the rotational movement is lessening. CoR = centre of rotation.
