Unrestricted kinematic alignment offers limited functional benefit over mechanical alignment in medial pivot total knee arthroplasty: A randomized controlled trial using conventional instrumentation

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to compare clinical outcomes between kinematic alignment (KA) and mechanical alignment (MA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using a medial‐pivot (MP) prosthesis and conventional instrumentation.

Functional alignment in robotic total knee arthroplasty achieves comparable outcomes in varus and valgus knees despite distinct intraoperative strategies: Analysis of 355 consecutive cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Functional alignment (FA) optimises implant positioning based on patient‐specific anatomy, but data on intraoperative adjustments in varus and valgus knees remain limited. This study evaluates the impact of preoperative coronal alignment on implant positioning, bone resections, functional outcomes, and revision rates in robotic ...

Does patellar resurfacing matter in robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty with functional alignment principles?

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose While new philosophies in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aim to optimize alignment and ligament balancing, restoring the anterior compartment and understanding the consequences of patella resurfacing remain challenging. This study evaluates the functional consequences of anterior compartment restoration, with a specific focus on patella

Restoration of the trochlear peaks is unnecessary with a kinematic alignment‐optimized femoral component as under‐stuffing results in equivalent or better patient‐reported outcome scores

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Kinematic alignment (KA) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aligns the femoral component to restore the pre‐arthritic posterior joint line, potentially altering the heights of the medial and lateral trochlear peaks. It remains unclear whether the femoral component should be adjusted to correct deviations in peak height.

Age at the time of surgery does not compromise the outcome of deepening trochleoplasty: Results from under and over 30 years old

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate whether age at the time of surgery influences patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients undergoing tailored surgical treatment for lateral patellar dislocation (LPD), including deepening trochleoplasty (TP). Methods This retrospective cohort study used a prospectively maintained database.

Are current total knee arthroplasty implants tested and approved for personalised alignment?

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) traditionally aims for neutral mechanical alignment (MA) to ensure implant longevity. However, this approach ignores individual knee variations, potentially leading to soft‐tissue imbalances and suboptimal functional outcomes. As an alternative, personalised alignment techniques (PAT) have emerged that aim

Patients with preoperative bone marrow oedema benefit more substantially from medial meniscus posterior root repair

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To analyze the clinical outcomes of the surgical repair of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMRT) in patients with preoperative bone marrow oedema (BME). Methods Patients who underwent arthroscopic pull‐out repair for MMRT between 2010 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed, and those with a minimum of two years of follow‐up were ...
