the prerequisites for successful total knee replacement. The purpose of this study was to …

Independent of the preoperative coronal deformity, adjusted mechanical alignment leads in a high percentage to non-anatomical tibial and femoral bone cuts

V Luderer, M Strauch, MT Hirschmann… - Knee Surgery, Sports …, 2023 - Springer
Purpose The technique of adjusted mechanical alignment (AMA) in total knee arthroplasty
(TKA) has been described to achieve alignment and balancing goals in varus knees in a …

Neutral alignment leads to higher knee society scores after total knee arthroplasty in preoperatively non-varus patients: a prospective clinical study using 3D-CT

O Slevin, A Hirschmann, FF Schiapparelli… - Knee Surgery, Sports …, 2018 - Springer
Purpose The optimal coronal alignment is still under debate. However, in most of the
studies, alignment was only assessed using radiographs, which are not accurate enough for …

The importance of joint line obliquity: a radiological analysis of restricted boundaries in normal knee phenotypes to inform surgical decision making in kinematically …

SJ MacDessi, RJ Allom, W Griffiths-Jones… - Knee Surgery, Sports …, 2022 - Springer
Purpose Restricted kinematic alignment (rKA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to restore
native soft tissue laxities while limiting alignment extremes that risk prosthetic failure …

The impact of mechanical and restricted kinematic alignment on knee anatomy in total knee arthroplasty

AM Almaawi, JRB Hutt, V Masse, M Lavigne… - The Journal of …, 2017 - Elsevier
Background Total knee arthroplasty (TKA), aiming at neutral mechanical alignment (MA),
inevitably modifies the patient's native knee anatomy. Another option is kinematic alignment …
