[PSI-technique for kinematic alignment].

DISCUSSION: With the aid of the 3D-printed PSI cutting blocks the preoperative plan of kinematic alignment can be implemented in a precise manner. It is a simple tool and does not require any great expense. Compared with the conventional instrumentation, the operating time is shortened. However, because of the purely CT-based design, no information about the state of the soft tissue is obtained.
