Dynamic changes to the tibiofemoral joint line with increasing osteoarthritis severity and its relationship to constitutional alignment
The tibiofemoral joint line angle changes dynamically with OA progression, while the constitutional aJLO remains stable until advanced disease occurs. Understanding this distinction between constitutional and dynamic joint line orientation is important when communicating and studying outcomes related to knee alignment.
