Personalized Solutions Kinematic
Alignment (TKA)

Kinematic alignment (KA) is a customized technique for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that aims to anatomically position and kinematically align total knee components by restoring the native, pre-arthritic joint lines and rotational axes of the individual knee. This helps patients move more naturally, recover faster, and resume their favourite activities and sports.
