Improved femoral component rotation in advanced genu valgum deformity using computer-assisted measured resection total knee arthroplasty

Table 6 Comparison of postoperative lower limb axes of patients with genu valgum (within 3° deviation) and component positioning

	Postoperative positioning within 3° deviation
	Group C	Group D	p value
	n = 26 (%)	n = 28 (%)	p value
Coronal mechanical axis within 3° deviation	24 (92.3)	23 (82.1 %)	0.423
Component positioning
Frontal femoral angle	26 (100)	27 (96.4)	1.000
Femoral rotation angle	24 (92.3)	21 (75.0)	0.011*
Frontal tibial angle	26 (100)	28 (100)	-
Sagittal tibial angle	24 (92.3)	27 (96.4)	0.604

Group C: osteoarthritis with genu valgum and underwent computer-assisted surgery total knee arthroplasty (CAS-TKA)
Group D: osteoarthritis with genu valgum and underwent conventional TKA
Data presented as number (%)
p values for between-group comparison were determined by chi-square tests
*Statistically significant (p < 0.05)
