Current concepts in total knee arthroplasty: mechanical, kinematic, anatomical, and functional alignment [PDF]

Bone & Joint Open, 2021
Limb alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) influences periarticular soft-tissue tension, biomechanics through knee flexion, and implant survival. Despite this, there is no uniform consensus on the optimal alignment technique for TKA.

Functional alignment maintains constant medial stability and a more distinct medial pivot pattern throughout flexion compared to mechanical alignment in medial pivot total knee arthroplasty [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose To investigate whether functional alignment (FA) leads to differences in in vivo kinematics and early clinical outcomes compared to mechanical alignment (MA) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using a medial pivot (MP ...
