Targeted adjustment of the posterior tibial slope in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is feasible without altering the medial proximal tibial angle

Objectives and questions: Recommendations regarding the surgical modification of the medial posterior tibial slope (mPTS) in medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) vary. Most knee systems recommend a specific target mPTS. Given the high preoperative variability among patients undergoing UKA, [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
