Open DOI
Digital tensioning demonstrates smaller medial and larger lateral gap measurements than manual assessment in robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty
Purpose: With the increasing use of robotic systems in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), contemporary alignment strategies have increasingly relied on accurate intraoperative gap measurements to achieve optimal soft tissue balance. Digital ...

Open DOI
A mathematical model of knee joint line orientation: Independent effects of femoral and tibial coronal anatomy and limits on achieving a horizontal joint line
Purpose: Natural knee joint line orientation (JLO) relative to the ground remains poorly understood. A JLO parallel to the floor is commonly assumed to favour balanced medial‐lateral compartment loading, but the independent influence of ...
03
Purpose: Preoperative planning, currently performed by orthopaedic surgeons (OS), is essential for successful osteotomy, but is labour‐intensive and error‐prone. As such, there is significant potential in the use of automated artificial ...

Open DOI
Posterolateral corner deficiency amplifies varus‐related anterior cruciate ligament forces under dynamic loading: A biomechanical study
Purpose: This study examined the influence of varus alignment, posterolateral corner (PLC) insufficiency, and PLC reconstruction on forces acting on the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). It was hypothesized that increasing varus would in...
05
DOI 10.1002/ksa.70652
Open DOI
The use of patellar tendon autograft and lateral meniscus repair are associated with loss of motion of the knee among female patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
Purpose: To conduct a sex‐stratified analysis of factors associated with subsequent surgery for loss of motion after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), including meniscus repair and graft type. Methods: All individuals age...

DOI 10.1002/ksa.70645
Open DOI
Long‐term survivorship of medial meniscus posterior horn repair during revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: 10‐year results from the SANTI Group
Purpose: To evaluate the long‐term rate of secondary medial meniscectomy following medial meniscus posterior horn repair performed during revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to compare contemporary posteromedial...
07
Purpose: This study aimed to translate and culturally adapt the knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score joint replacement (KOOS‐JR) into simplified Chinese and provide an initial evaluation of selected measurement properties in pati...

DOI 10.1002/ksa.70641
Open DOI
Low graft failure after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in professional soccer players: A retrospective cohort study of 232 knees from the SANTI Study Group
Purpose: This study aimed to determine graft failure rates after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in professional soccer players and to evaluate factors associated with graft failure, including lateral extra‐artic...

Open DOI
Artificial intelligence across the continuum of care for the aging musculoskeletal patient: From longitudinal phenotyping to personalized surgery and recovery monitoring
Musculoskeletal care is being reshaped by population aging, multimorbidity, frailty, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, polypharmacy and increasing vulnerability to postoperative loss of independence. Artificial intelligence (AI) has entered orth...

Open DOI
Sex‐related differences after ACL reconstruction differ between early functional recovery and 5‐year outcomes
Purpose: To compare early functional recovery and 5‐year clinical, sports and psychological outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) according to sex. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included consecutive p...
