Synopsis
94 patients undergoing a total knee arthroplasty procedure were randomized to receive mechanical alignment with an individualized gap balancing technique (n=47) or with standard measured resection (n=47). The primary outcome of interest was knee extension power measured via the peak torque of the quadriceps. Secondary outcomes of interest included peak hamstring torque, balance, functional outcome...
