Coronal plane alignment of the knee (CPAK) phenotypes and their relationship with gap patterns in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty: a clinical trial
Intraoperative soft-tissue balance during TKA reflects the underlying CPAK phenotype. Integrating CPAK classification into robotic planning enables anticipation of gap tendencies and facilitates phenotype-driven balancing, bridging constitutional anatomy with functional alignment.
