Assessment and quantification of ipsilateral and contralateral ankle joint alignment changes after unilateral total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis with varus deformity: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract Purpose The study’s primary objective was to assess and quantify the ipsilateral (side A) and contralateral (side B) ankle joint line orientation (AJLO) changes after unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for primary knee osteoarthritis (OA) with varus deformity. The secondary objectives...
