He proposed the “restricted” kinematic alignment protocol (rKA) to reliably produce a prosthetic knee with component/knee/limb alignments that always fall within an evidence-based safe alignment range which is compatible with long term implant survivorship. In the current video, he will show how he performs rKA in combination with personalized instruments (PSI). Publications of interest:
