Background: The number of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgeries performed each year is increasing worldwide and mechanical alignment (MA) is currently seen as the gold standard procedure. However, taking neutral alignment as the universal goal may be mistaken. In our hospital, we currently conduct kinematically aligned TKA (KA-TKA). Three different types of implants are used: the cruciate-retaining (CR) type, cruciate-sacrificing (CS) type, or bi-cruciate-retained (BCR) type. We aimed to compare the coronal alignment observed following KA-TKA and MA-TKA and in normal knees, as well as that achieved with different types of implants. Methods: The study comprised 206 knees of Japanese patients who underwent KA-TKA using varying implants in our Hospital between May 2019 and April 2020. Measurements of pre- and postoperative coronal alignment were determined from weight-bearing full-leg standing radiographs. The postoperative results were compared to measurements taken from patients who underwent MA-TKA (N = 96) and normal knees (N = 60). Results: No significant differences between the KA-TKA group and normal knees were found for the medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) (–4.2° ± 2.6° vs –3.8° ± 2.5°) or joint line orientation angle (JLOA) (0.2° ± 1.9° vs 0.3° ± 1.4°). However, when MA-TKA was compared to KA-TKA and normal knees, there were significant differences in both the MPTA and JLOA (p Conclusions: Here, we demonstrated that following KA-TKA, the articular surface of the tibia exhibited a similar varus alignment as that of normal knees, meaning that the technique reproduces the native knee. Furthermore, KA is patient-specific, and does not have the same failures as MA-TKA. Therefore, we anticipate a paradigm shift from mechanical to kinematic alignment, which may help reduce the dissatisfaction rate of TKA patients.
