The present study demonstrates no difference in trochlea morphology between the genders, rather a significant number of overall outliers in trochlear morphology. Larger cohorts but also, more investigations, are needed to better understand the trochlear morphology of patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The personalized alignment strategies and implants need to account for this variability in the population.
