Ligament Balancing in TKA
• The basic aim is to get both extension and flexion gaps rectangular, equal and balanced. This balanced tension is important for implant stability and long-term survival. • Two popular knee replacement techniques currently practiced are: “measured resection” which depends on tibial and femoral bone cuts through resection guide and “balanced resection” which depends on optimising ligament tensioning. Both affect ligament balancing during the operation. • A stepwise approach for sequential ligament releases, according to the type of deformity, is essential to good outcomes.
