Alignment and Total Knee Arthroplasty

The Journal of Arthroplasty’s: The Cut brings you a very special episode based on Knee Society Proceedings that highlight important research about knee arthroplasty. In this special episode, we’re very fortunate to have Leonard T. Buller, MD, Nathanael D. Heckmann, MD, Kimberly K. Tucker, MD and James D. Slover, MD, MS, join us to discuss various studies on different alignment strategies that impact balance, motion and outcomes.

Knee alignment has always been central to how surgeons think about knee replacement from the long-standing standard of mechanical alignment to the more patient specific philosophy of kinematic and functional alignment. With robotics and large data sets, we’re starting to see these concepts tested in new ways. You don’t want to miss this recording!
