Bone loss on the femoral side in knees with medial osteoarthritis: Implications for kinematically-aligned total knee arthroplasty - A comparative study of lateral distal femoral angle in knees with and without osteoarthritis in the same patients.

The assumption that there is no bone wear on the femoral articular surface is rejectable, and the constant compensation thickness of 2 mm for cartilage wear may not be sufficient. Further research is needed to estimate the amount of bone wear in both femur and tibia side to develop more individualized surgical planning strategies in KA-TKA.
