A prospective randomised controlled trial of mechanical axis with soft tissue release balancing vs functional alignment with bony resection balancing in total knee replacement —a study using Stryker Mako robotic arm-assisted technology

This study is unique in that it leverages an advanced analytics tool to assist the surgeon in achieving balance. Both alignment techniques will be executed with high precision using the CT-based robotic arm-assisted surgery system which will minimise surgical variation. This trial design will help determine if FA delivers superior outcomes for patients.Trial registrationAustralia and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ANZCTR),ACTRN12620000009910.
