Three-dimensional analysis of the tibial resection plane relative to the arthritic tibial plateau in total knee arthroplasty

Abstract Background Kinematically aligned total knee arthroplasty strives to correct the arthritic deformity by restoring the native tibial joint line. However, the precision of such surgical correction needs to be quantified in order to reduce recuts of the resection and to design assisting instrum...
