Knee alignment in the transverse plane during weight-bearing activity and its implication for the tibial rotational alignment in total knee arthroplasty

摘要

Background: The alignment of the knee in the transverse plane is important to the biomechanical functions of the lower limb, and is also associated with the outcomes of the total knee arthroplasty. This study aimed to evaluate the dynamic tibiofemoral alignment in the transverse plane during a weight-bearing activity.
