Abstract

This study examines the association between postoperative coronal tibiofemoral alignment and revision surgery in knee arthroplasty. We retrospectively reviewed the case notes and post-operative long-leg radiographs of 197 Kinemax knee arthroplasty with mean follow-up of 9 years (SD 2.2). They were divided into three groups: neutral, valgus and varus. Revision or decision to revise was used as a hard endpoint. There was no statistical difference among the three groups (p=0.78). We conclude that aseptic failure of a total knee is multifactorial. Coronal tibio-femoral alignment may not be as important a cause of failure as has been previously thought.
