Three-Compartment Phenotype Concept of Total Knee Arthroplasty Alignment: Mismatch Between Distal Femoral, Posterior Femoral, and Tibial Joint Lines
It is crucial to emphasize that preoperative assessment of a patient's anatomy should include the anterior and posterior femoral joint lines. The extended FKP concept could aid in this assessment and help identify patients who are at risk of complications due to malalignment or those who are likely to benefit from a particular alignment concept.
