Measuring the intramedullary axis in short lateral knee radiographs leads to increased femoral component flexion compared to conventional lateral knee radiographs in total knee arthroplasty

Objectives and questions: Sagittal alignment changes can significantly impact knee kinematics, soft tissue tensioning, and implant longevity in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Traditional instrumentation in non-robotic TKA use the intramedullary axis as a reference for femoral component positioning. [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
