- Abstract
The accuracy of preoperative planning of the size of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in literature is only 50%. A problem of conventional radiographic planning with prosthesis templates is varying enlargement of the radiographs. Digital planning and analysis of lower leg geometry revealed improved reliability compared to conventional techniques. The aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of digital planning of TKA with special planning software and calibrated radiographs and its interobserver reliability.
