Calipered Kinematically aligned Total Knee Arthroplasty, 1st Edition
Hardcover
-
Calipered Kinematically Aligned Knee Arthroplasty is the definitive textbook on the subject and features:
- Thorough explanations of how the calipered kinematic alignment technique for total knee arthroplasty accurately sets total knee components coincident with the patient’s pre-arthritic alignment and coaligned with the three rotational axes of the native knee.
- A personalized approach to total knee surgery designed to reconstitute the patient’s native biomechanics in contrast with mechanical alignment that place all patients in the same standard alignment regardless of their constitutional anatomy.
- Detailed and well-illustrated descriptions of manual, navigated, robotic and patient-specific guide techniques that confirm kinematic alignment with a caliper.
- Clinical photos, radiographs, and line art throughout the book as well as helpful online technique videos.
- Key focus topics such as managing complex deformities, the expected post-operative recovery, and future trends in kinematic alignment.
- The shared experience and knowledge of international pioneers in the field.
- An emphasis on a personalized surgical philosophy which enables same-day discharge, reduces pain and opioid use, and promotes quicker recovery, better function, and a more natural feeling knee.
