The key steps of the procedure (as well as multiple tips and tricks) demonstrated in this video are:
(1) preoperative assessment and planning
(2) patient positioning and setup
(3) exposure
(4) instrument options and surgical technique
(5) distal femoral resection
(6) proximal tibial resection
(7) assessment of alignment and gaps
(8) finishing the femur-sizing, position, and posterior resection
(9) finishing the tibia-sizing and position
(10) trialing the implant
(11) implanting final components-cementing technique
(12) closure
(13) rehabilitation
Following these surgical steps and principles will lead to excellent functional long-term results with a low revision rate and a minimum of complications.
