Introduction Surgically balanced total knee arthroplasties have shown improved functional
and clinical outcomes. Two different alignment methods have been proposed, the measured …

Component position is critical to longevity of knee arthroplasties. Femoral component
rotation is typically referenced from the transepicondylar axis (TEA), the anterior-posterior …

Purpose The aim of this study was to demonstrate the lower limb alignment in knee flexion
position after navigation-assisted total knee arthroplasty using the gap technique and to …

Objective To investigate the reference role of the plane of the distal femur anterior cortex in
determining the lateral rotation angle of femoral component in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) …

Introduction We aimed to assess the accuracy of a new extramedullary guide system for
achieving appropriate femoral component alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to …

This study describes the variance within a representative population of total knee
arthroplasty (TKA) patients to provide guidance in improving coronal alignment. The authors …

The basic objective in total knee arthroplasty is to achieve the correct amount of femoral
component rotation, and this can be achieved either with a measured resection technique or …

Background Proper rotational alignment of the femoral component is critical for a successful
total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Controversy remains regarding the optimal intraoperative …

Background The use of navigation for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) improves limb alignment
in the coronal and sagittal planes. However, similar improvements in femoral and tibial …

Rotation errors of the femoral component are held responsible for occurrences such as
instability in flexion and midflexion, patellar maltracking, and arthrofibrosis following total …
