Are current total knee arthroplasty implants tested and approved for personalised alignment?
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) traditionally aims for neutral mechanical alignment (MA) to ensure implant longevity. However, this approach ignores individual knee variations, potentially leading to soft‐tissue imbalances and suboptimal functional outcomes. As an alternative, personalised alignment techniques (PAT) have emerged that aim

ABSTRACT Purpose Bisphosphonates (BPs), widely used for osteoporosis management, have garnered attention in the context of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for their potential to preserve periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD) and mitigate risks such as aseptic loosening, periprosthetic fractures, and implant failure. This study systematically reviewed

Arthrogenic muscle inhibition: A prevalent issue in knee arthroplasty
Abstract Purpose Flexion contracture is a multifactorial complication after knee osteoarthritis and knee arthroplasty. Among the causes, arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) has never been studied. It is a failure to achieve proper quadriceps motor activation, which can lead to flexion contracture due to hamstring contracture.

ABSTRACT Purpose Kinematic alignment (KA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) aims to restore the patient's native joint anatomy by resurfacing the distal and posterior femoral condyles. However, the trochlear anatomy is often overlooked, raising concerns about potential relative internal rotation of the femoral component.

Abstract Purpose Despite advancements in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), patient dissatisfaction remains notably high (15%–25%). This dissatisfaction will be multifactorial, one of which may be the alignment of the components. Kinematic alignment (KA), aimed at restoring pre‐arthritic knee anatomy, is proposed as a promising alternative to mechanical ...
