The native orientation of the medial condylar wall seems to be a reliable anatomical landmark for aligning the femoral component in medial KA UKA in both the axial plane and frontal planes. Other assessed landmarks were shown to not be reliable. Clinical and radiographic assessments of the reliability of using the MWMC to set the frontal and axial orientation of the femoral component when performing a medial KA UKA are needed.
