Accuracy of preoperative 2D templating
| Deviation category | Both components*, n (%) | Femoral component, n (%) | Tibial component, n (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Exact (0) | 106 (25) | 220 (52) | 176 (43) |
| ± 1 size | 345 (81) | 390 (92) | 373 (88) |
| ± 2 sizes | 416 (98) | 424 (100) | 414 (98) |
| ± 3 sizes | 424 (100) | 424 (100) | 424 (100) |
*“Both components” refers to a case-level measure, indicating that both the femoral and tibial component deviations fall within the specified category (e.g., “ ± 1 size” requires both components to be within ± 1 of the planned size). Deviation is defined as the absolute difference between planned and implanted size; narrow femoral components (e.g., 4 N) were classified according to their base size (e.g., 4 N → 4)
