Improved clinical outcomes when maintaining a neutral joint line obliquity at high tibial osteotomy and subsequent total knee arthroplasty [PDF]
Purpose The primary aim was to study the impact of joint line obliquity (JLO) on clinical outcomes and survivorship in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after a previous high tibial osteotomy (HTO).

Joint line obliquity after high tibial osteotomy: assessment and clinical implications [PDF]
A valgus-producing high tibial osteotomy effectively addresses symptoms caused by medial knee osteoarthritis with varus malalignment, but increases knee joint line obliquity in the frontal plane. Surgeons face challenges in deciding whether to incorporate predicted joint line obliquity change into high tibial osteotomy planning.

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 ...

CT-Based Software-Generated Measurements Permit More Objective Assessments of Arithmetic Hip-Knee-Ankle Axis and Joint Line Obliquity [PDF]
The rapid adoption of robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) has resulted in pre-operative CT scans becoming more readily available. After the segmentation and identification of landmarks by trained segmentation specialists, the Mako ...

Prediction model for abnormal joint line obliquity after open wedge high tibial osteotomy using knee radiographic parameters [PDF]
Background The purpose of this study was to identify key preoperative radiographic parameters and develop a predictive model for abnormal knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) following medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) in patients with medial ...

Influence of Increased Joint Line Obliquity on Survivorship After Lateral Closing-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy [PDF]
Background: Although high tibial osteotomy (HTO) has emerged as a powerful intervention for treating symptomatic medial osteoarthritis and varus malalignment, it can result in an increase in knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) in the frontal plane.

Abstract Purpose Lower extremity coronal alignment parameters include varus, neutral, and valgus alignment as well as knee and ankle joint line obliquity (KJLO and AJLO). KJLO and AJLO are influenced by the intermalleolar distance during long‐leg standing radiographs (LSRs).

Modification of the coronal plane alignment of the knee classification considering the joint line convergence angle in high tibial osteotomy: a geometric approach [PDF]
Background Excessive joint line obliquity (JLO) is associated with poor outcomes in open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO). The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification categorizes knee phenotypes by alignment and JLO but overlooks the

Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) in children and adolescents: an analysis of 655 knees according to the CPAK classification [PDF]
Aims: The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee classification (CPAK) describes nine knee phenotypes by defining arithmetic hip-knee-ankle angle (aHKA) and joint line obliquity (JLO).
