Preoperative Varus-Valgus Stress Angle Difference Is Valuable for Predicting the Extent of Medial Release in Varus Deformity during Total Knee Arthroplasty

摘要

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to compare the predictive value of the valgus stress angle (SA), varus SA and varus-valgus SA difference (VVD) in predicting the degree of medial release in varus deformity during total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
