Variability of the femoral mechanical-anatomical axis angle and its implications in primary and revision total knee arthroplasty: an analysis of 2,156 knees using a deep learning tool

Variability of the femoral mechanical-anatomical axis angle and its implications in primary and revision total knee arthroplasty: an analysis of 2,156 knees using a deep learning tool

Aims: Distal femoral resection in conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) utilizes an intramedullary guide to determine coronal alignment, commonly planned for 5° of valgus. However, a standard 5° resection angle may contribute to malalignment in patients with variability in the femoral anatomica...
