Background Seeing as there are many alignment strategies for total knee arthroplasty (TKA),
we need to determine differences between them in a rigorous scientific way. Therefore, we …

Aims Our aim was to compare kinematic with mechanical alignment in total knee
arthroplasty (TKA). Patients and Methods We performed a prospective blinded randomised …

Aims Alternative alignment concepts, including kinematic and restricted kinematic, have
been introduced to help improve clinical outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) …

Purpose This meta-analysis compared the results of kinematic alignment (KA) and
mechanical alignment (MA) applied in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods Randomized …

Background The optimal alignment technique for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains
controversial. We previously reported 6-month and 2-year results of a randomized controlled …

Purpose Various alignment philosophies for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have been
described, all striving to achieve excellent long‐term implant survival and good functional …

In the last 10 years many studies have questioned if the strive to mechanical align any knee
may pose some problems related to ligament misbalancing that could explain the high rate …

Background Neutral mechanical alignment (MA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to
position femoral and tibial components perpendicular to the mechanical axis of the limb. In …

This meta-analysis was conducted to study whether kinematically aligned total knee
arthroplasty (TKA) improves short-term functional outcomes compared with mechanical …

The purpose of this study was to compare 2 alignment methods for total knee arthroplasty
(TKA): kinematic alignment with the use of patient-specific guides and mechanical alignment …
