Coronal alignment classes after robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty are not associated with variation in patient-reported outcome measurements: A single-center cohort study

The aims of this study were (1) to use three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) measurements to determine whether patients undergoing imageless robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) develop a variety of postoperative distal femoral mechanical angle (FMA), proximal tibial mechanical angle (TMA), and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) phenotypes as described by Hirschmann et al, and (2) to compare postoperative patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) between these phenotypes.
