A simple method for accurate rotational positioning of the femoral component in total knee arthroplasty: A prospective study on 80 knees with 3 years’ follow-up with CT scans and functional outcome
Background and purpose — There are many techniques for placing the femoral component in correct rotational alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but only a few have been tested against the supposed gold standard, rotation determined by postoperative computed tomography (CT). We evaluated the a...
