Popis: Introduction: Rotating platform (RP) is a form of mobile-bearing design for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This reduces the polyethylene contact stresses and the forces acting on tibial component and bone cement interfaces. It increases the femoral roll-back and flexion. The objective was to assess the functional outcome of rotating platform design in primary TKA, in patients with osteoarthritis of knee and the association of age and gender with the outcome. Materials and methods: A prospective observational study was done on 42 patients who underwent primary TKA with RP design and followed-up for one year. The outcome was assessed with the Knee Society Score at one year. Data analysis was done using statistical package SPSS V-27.0. Results: The mean age was 64.33(±6.12). The mean pre-op knee clinical score was 30(±6.409), which improved to mean post–op score of 92.17(±5.53). 37(88.1%) had excellent and 5(11.9%) had good results. 7(70%) patients in the age group
