Study Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of this prospective multicenter randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to compare the clinical and radiologic results of primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using patient-specific versus conventional instrumentation.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mechanical axis

Time Frame: 3 months

Lower limb mechanical axis was measured on a bipodal standing leg-length anteroposterior radiograph with the patella oriented straight made three months postoperatively, using Roman software version 1.70 (Oswestry, United Kingdom). Postoperative lower limb mechanical axis was calculated from the HKA (hip-knee-ankle) angle between the femoral and tibial mechanical axes, respectively. An HKA angle greater than 180° was indicative of valgus, whereas values lower than 180° indicated varus.

Secondary Outcomes
