Introduction: Correct rotational alignment of the femoral component is an important factor for
successful total knee arthroplasty. This study evaluated relationship between the …

PURPOSE: We compared the tansepicondylar axis and the anteroposterior axis used as the
references for the rotational axis of the femur when performing total knee arthroplasty and …

We examined the reliability of the anteroposterior and posterior condylar axes for
determining rotational alignment of the femoral component in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) …

To assess rotational alignment of the distal femur, 2 types of transepicondylar axes have
been used in the literature. We compared surgical and clinical epicondylar axes in the …

This study evaluated a technique using the anteroposterior axis of the distal femur, rather
than the transepicondylar or posterior femoral condylar axis, to establish rotational …

Background We aimed at determining whether the coronal alignment of lower extremity was
related to rotational geometry of distal femur, femoral anteversion, and tibial torsion in …

Patello-femoral tracking and polyethylene wear are strongly dependent on rotational
alignment of the components in total knee arthroplasty. In the current literature four methods …

The posterior condylar angle is formed by the transepicondylar axis and the tangent line to
the posterior condyles. It is an important relationship to determine rotational alignment of the …

Objectives: Purpose of this study is to as certain consistency between posterior condylar axis
(PCA)+ 3˚ external rotation line and clinical transepicondylar axis (cTEA) line in primary total …

A morphologic anatomic study was done of the lower extremity to investigate various
relationships of the transepicondylar axis (TEA). Thirteen cadaver specimens were …
