An unexpected finding of this study was that none of the patients in the screw group experienced end-of-stem pain, whereas five knees in the non-screw group reported mild tibial end-of-stem pain; the incidence of end-of-stem pain in the screw group was less than that in the non-screw group, with a strong tendency towards statistical significance (0/55 vs. 5/51, P = 0.0548).

Postoperative tibial end-of-stem pain was reported in 9.8% of the non-screw group, while none (0%) in the screw group, reflecting marginal significance ( P = 0.0548).
