Table 3.

Proportion of postoperative FMA, TMA, and HKA phenotypes matching the contralateral, unaffected leg

Phenotype Same phenotype in KA TKA and contralateral leg (%) KA TKA phenotype was 1 more varus than contralateral leg (%) KA TKA phenotype was 1 more valgus than contralateral leg (%)
Femoral mechanical angle (FMA) 81 6 13
Tibial mechanical angle (TMA) 73 11 16
Hip–knee–ankle angle (HKA)* 70 9 19

*2% of calipered KA TKA had a HKA phenotype that was 2 more varus and 2 more valgus that contralateral leg
