  • Progress in the method of tibial prosthesis rotation alignment in total knee arthroplasty

    ObjectiveTo summarize the methods of tibial prosthesis rotation alignment in total knee arthroplasty, and provide reference for clinicians to select and further study the methods of tibial prosthesis rotation alignment.MethodsThe advantages and disadvantages of various tibial prosthesis rotation alignment methods were analyzed and summarized by referring to the relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years.ResultsThere are many methods for tibial prosthesis rotation alignment, including reference to relevant anatomical landmarks, range of motion (ROM) technique, computer-assisted navigation, and personalized osteotomy. The inner one-third of the tibial tuberosity is a more accurate reference anatomical landmark, but the obesity, severe knee deformity and dysplasia have impacts on the precise placement of the tibial prosthesis. ROM technique do not need to refer to the anatomical landmark of the tibia, and aren’t affected by landmark variation. It can be used for severe knee valgus deformity and the landmarks that are difficult to identify. However, it may cause internal rotation of tibial prosthesis. Computer- assisted navigation and personalized osteotomy can achieve more accurate alignment in sagittal, coronal, and rotational alignment of femoral prosthesis. However, due to the lack of reliable anatomical landmarkers related to tibia fixation, it is still controversial whether it can help the alignment of tibial prosthesis rotation.ConclusionThe surgeon should master the methods of rotation and alignment of tibial prosthesis, make preoperative plans, select appropriate alignment methods for different patients, and achieve individualization. Meanwhile, several anatomical landmarkers should be referred to properly during the operation, which can be used to detect the correct placement of tibial prosthesis and avoid large rotation error.
