Predicting the need for medial augmentation for primary total knee arthroplasty with varus deformity
In TKA with advanced varus deformity, tibial metal augment is a method that can be used to provide soft tissue balance. The need for metal augmentation should be kept in mind, particularly if the preoperative evaluation indicates that the HKA angle exceeds 20.6° or ETR exceeds 12.5 mm.
