Synopsis

91 patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty were randomized to surgery completed using either the gap balancing technique or the measured resection technique. Outcomes of interest included final femoral component rotational alignment, and the difference between the medial and lateral compartment forces (Intercompartmental Force Difference) at full extension, 45 degrees flexion, 90 degrees fl...
