Abstract:
The aim of this paper was to review the existing described methods for measuring postoperative TKA alignment in sagittal and axial plane and to review the existing literature regarding the axial plane evaluation with the use of the computer tomography. The most frequent mistakes when positioning the total knee arthroplasty (TKA) components are done in the axial plane, so it is necessary to know what the limits of the radiographic evaluation are and, for this evaluation, the CT scan is the most valuable in assessing the rotation of the components.
