Native rotational knee kinematics are lost in bicruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty when the tibial component is replaced.

The rotational kinematics of the native knee are not always preserved after BCR TKA. Native rotational kinematics are preserved after meniscectomy and femoral replacement, but are lost after tibial replacement in BCR TKA. Surgeons should pay close attention to maintain the anteroposterior stabilizing function of the ACL in BCR TKA, rather than to restore the native rotational kinematics.
