Evaluation of the Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification in arthritic knees following robotic total knee arthroplasty [PDF]
Background The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification describes knee morphology using arithmetic hip-knee-ankle angle (aHKA) and joint line obliquity (JLO).

Increased joint line obliquity is associated with lateral cartilage degeneration after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy: a quantitative MRI analysis [PDF]
Background Joint line obliquity (JLO) often increases after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO), and excessive JLO may adversely affect the lateral compartment.

AbstractPurposeDifferent methods for quantifying joint‐line obliquity (JLO) have been described, including joint‐line obliquity angle (JLOA), Mikulicz joint‐line angle (MJLA) and medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA). The goal of the present study was to quantify the variation of JLOA based on the position of the hip.

The Degree of Joint Line Obliquity Change Is Not Associated with Patient Preference in Bilateral Posterior-Stabilized Total Knee Arthroplasties [PDF]
Objectives: To evaluate patient reference in paired bilateral posterior stabilized (PS) total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) with significantly different degrees of joint line obliquity (JLO) change. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 128 patients who underwent paired bilateral PS TKAs, with greater and smaller JLO changes (G-ΔJLO and S-ΔJLO ...

Palliative high tibial osteotomy achieves comparable outcomes to corrective osteotomy in varus knees with medial compartment osteoarthritis: A long‐term clinical and radiological retrospective study [PDF]
Purpose The long‐term outcomes of palliative high tibial osteotomy (PO) remain insufficiently defined. This study compared the clinical and radiological outcomes of PO with those of corrective osteotomy (CO) in patients with varus knee deformity ...

Background: In bifocal varus deformity, double-level osteotomy (DLO) is advocated to treat lower limb alignment to prevent an adverse increase in joint line obliquity.
