Does Restoration of Constitutional Alignment Improve Outcomes in Total Knee Arthroplasty?
While robotic bounded functional strategy restored constitutional alignment in half of cases, this did not result in superior PROs at 1 year. Achieving soft tissue balance within acceptable parameters of alignment and bony excision may be more important than precise restoration of prearthritic alignment.
