Medial parapatellar surgical approach leads to greater loss of postural sway complexity compared to mid‐vastus approach in women undergoing total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with acute postoperative effects that increase the risk of falls. These effects differ between the medial parapatellar (PP) and mid‐vastus (MV) surgical techniques but have not been evaluated in terms of postural sway complexity.
