Traditionally in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), a post-operative neutral alignment was the
gold standard. This principle has been contested as functional outcomes were found to be …

Background In an effort to increase satisfaction among total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients,
emphasis has been placed on implant positioning and limb alignment. Traditionally, the aim …

Aims A comprehensive classification for coronal lower limb alignment with predictive
capabilities for knee balance would be beneficial in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This paper …

Orthopaedic surgeons are currently faced with an overwhelming number of choices
surrounding total knee arthroplasty (TKA), not only with the latest technologies and …

Background The extent of geographic variation in knee phenotypes remains unclear. The
Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) Classification proposes 9 coronal plane …

Background The purpose of this study was to perform an updated meta-analysis to compare
the outcomes of kinematic alignment (KA) and mechanical alignment (MA) in patients …

Purpose In total knee arthroplasty (TKA), knee phenotypes including joint line obliquity are
of interest regarding surgical realignment strategies. The hypothesis of this study is that …

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 …

Background Functional alignment (FA) strives to balance the knee soft-tissue envelope
during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using implant alignment adjustments rather than soft …

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been quoted as one of the most successful and cost-
effective procedures in Orthopaedics. The last decade has seen an exponential rise in the …
