Abstract
BACKGROUND: In total knee arthroplasty, the normal kinematics of the knee may not be restored solely based on preoperative gait, fluoroscopic-based, and dynamic radiostereometric analyses. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE CASE PRESENTATION: This note introduced a 69-year-old male patient who sustained post-traumatic osteoarthritis of his right knee. He underwent robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty based on anatomical reproduction of knee stability during the swing phase of gait. The kinematic alignment was simply achieved within an easy-to-identified range after preoperative radiographic assessment, intraoperative landmarking and pre-validated osteotomy, and intraoperative range of motion testing. CONCLUSIONS: This novel technique allows personalized and imageless total knee arthroplasty. It provides a preliminary path in reproducing the anatomy alignment, natural collateral ligament laxity, and accurate component placement within safe-to-identified alignment boundaries.
