Functional knee phenotypes: a novel classification for phenotyping the coronal lower limb alignment based on the native alignment in young non-osteoarthritic patients

Purpose The currently used system to classify the lower limb alignment (neutral, varus, valgus) does not consider the orientation of the joint line or its relationship to the overall lower limb alignment. Similarly, current total knee arthroplasty (TKA) alignment concepts do not sufficiently conside...
