Abstract
Purpose Restoring a neutral mechanical axis in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) (within +/- 3 degrees of varus/valgus) is associated with superior functional outcome and reduced early implant failure. Using conventional alignment jigs results in malalignment in >20 % of cases. In this study, we investigated the reduction of outliers within the threshold of +/- 3 degrees of leg alignment using a ...
