We conducted a randomised controlled trial to assess the accuracy
of positioning and alignment of the components in total knee arthroplasty
(TKA), comparing those undertaken using standard intramedullary
cutting jigs and those with patient-specific instruments (PSI). There were 64 TKAs in the standard group and 69 in the PSI group. The post-operative hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle and positioning
was investigated using CT scans. Deviation of >
3° from the planned
position was regarded as an outlier. The operating time, Oxford
Knee Scores (OKS) and Short Form-12 (SF-12) scores were recorded.Aims
