Coronal alignment in osteoarthritic knees, does it change in flexion?

Coronal alignment in osteoarthritic knees, does it change in flexion?

Changes in coronal alignment in osteoarthritic knees evolving from extension to flexion remain poorly studied. Using an imageless computer-navigation system (Stryker©) we prospectively collected measurements of dynamic coronal pre-implant alignment during primary total knee arthroplasty. Coronal ali...

Zusammenfassung:Changes in coronal alignment in osteoarthritic knees evolving from extension to flexion remain poorly studied. Using an imageless computer-navigation system (Stryker©) we prospectively collected measurements of dynamic coronal pre-implant alignment during primary total knee arthroplasty. Coronal alignment of the osteoarthritic knee was determined at maxi- mal extension and 90° flexion. Measurements were subgrouped as varus (≤-3°), neutral (>-3°,
