Total Knee Arthroplasty in Varus Deformity
Objectives: To analyze physiological and pathological varus in patients with unilateral osteoarthritis under physiological loading. To develop an algorithm for applying various types of limb alignment.
• Patients over 18 years of age with grade 3-4 knee osteoarthritis (according to Kellgren-Lawrence) and pain score of 5 or higher on a 10-point VAS scale.
• Varus deformity of the lower limb (HKA angle \<177°, or varus \>3°)
• Anesthesia risk according to the ASA scale of no more than III.
• BMI less than 35 kg/m2.
• Patient must be monitored throughout the entire study period (12 months).
• Patient must be mentally competent and compliant.
• Patient must provide written informed consent to participate in the study.
