Effect of limb rotation on radiographic alignment measurement in mal-aligned knees [PDF]

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2021
Abstract Purpose Long-leg-radiography (LLR) is commonly used for the measurement of lower limb alignment. However, limb rotations during radiography may interfere with the alignment measurement.

Kinematic alignment versus mechanical alignment in primary total knee arthroplasty: an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background The purpose of this study was to perform an updated meta-analysis to compare the outcomes of kinematic alignment (KA) and mechanical alignment (MA) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.

Restoration of Joint Inclination in Total Knee Arthroplasty Offers Little Improvement in Joint Kinematics in Neutrally Aligned Extremities

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Kinematically aligned total knee replacements have been shown to better restore physiological kinematics than mechanical alignment and also offer good postoperative satisfaction.

Definitions and consequences of current alignment techniques and phenotypes in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) – there is no winner yet

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2023
Dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been extensively documented and it was attributed to numerous factors. In recent years, significant focus has been directed towards implant alignment and stability as potential causes and ...

Self-reported adult footwear and the risks of lower limb osteoarthritis : the GOAL case control study [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Biomechanical factors may play a role in osteoarthritis (OA) development and progression. Previous biomechanical studies have indicated that types of footwear may modulate forces across the knee joint, and high heeled womens’ shoes in ...

Computer-Aided Surgery-Navigated, Functional Alignment Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Surgical Technique

Arthroplasty Today, 2022
The decision on which technique to use to perform a total knee arthroplasty has become much more complicated over the last decade. The shortfalls of mechanical alignment and kinematic alignment has led to the development of a new alignment philosophy ...

The effect of varus knee deformities on the ankle alignment in patients with knee osteoarthritis

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Background We evaluated the compensatory change in ankle alignment due to knee malalignment and its relationship with varus knee deformities, as well as sex differences in compensation.

Biomechanical considerations for an easily-restricted robot-assisted kinematic alignment: a surgical technique note

Arthroplasty, 2023
Background In total knee arthroplasty, the normal kinematics of the knee may not be restored solely based on preoperative gait, fluoroscopic-based, and dynamic radiostereometric analyses.
