Howell to enable the accurate and individualized placement of total knee components coincident within ± 0.5 mm of the patient’s pre-arthritic alignment. The aim was to restore the patient's native joint kinematics and thereby address the well documented 20% dissatisfaction when total knee replacement is performed using traditional, or mechanical alignment techniques. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWith Dr. Stefano A. Bini and Dr. G. Daxton Steele as co-editors, Dr. Howell has curated an \u003cb\u003einternational team of expert surgeons and engineers\u003c\/b\u003e to discuss various aspects of the calipered knee alignment technique in short, concise, and well-illustrated chapters. \u003cb\u003eEach author provides clear, practical guidance \u003c\/b\u003efor adopting and implementing calipered kinematic alignment covering manual, patient-specific, navigated, and robotic techniques. Chapters on component design tailored explicitly for kinematic alignment and showing the close relationship between knee biomechanics and the kinematically aligned TKA help the surgeon manage complex challenges associated with deformity and post-operative complications.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFollowing the introduction of the calipered kinematic alignment technique for total knee arthroplasty, many international studies have shown consistently better patient satisfaction than the traditional mechanical alignment technique. Better function and high long-term implant survival have catalyzed a paradigm shift in total knee replacement philosophy that is being embraced by orthopedic surgeons and innovative implant companies around the world with excellent results. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalipered Kinematically Aligned Knee Arthroplasty is the definitive textbook on the subject and features: \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThorough explanations of how the calipered kinematic alignment technique for total knee arthroplasty accurately sets total knee components coincident with \u003cb\u003ethe patient’s pre-arthritic alignment and coaligned with the three rotational axes of the native knee. \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA personalized approach to total knee surgery designed to reconstitute the patient’s native biomechanics in contrast with mechanical alignment that place all patients in the same standard alignment regardless of their constitutional anatomy.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed and \u003cb\u003ewell-illustrated descriptions \u003c\/b\u003eof manual, navigated, robotic and patient-specific guide techniques that confirm kinematic alignment with a caliper.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cb\u003e  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClinical photos, radiographs, and line art throughout the book as well as \u003cb\u003ehelpful online technique videos\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cb\u003e  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey focus topics such as managing complex deformities, the expected post-operative recovery, and future trends in kinematic alignment.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe shared experience and knowledge of \u003cb\u003einternational pioneers in the field\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn emphasis on a \u003cb\u003epersonalized surgical philosophy\u003c\/b\u003e which enables \u003cb\u003esame-day discharge, reduces pain and opioid use\u003c\/b\u003e, and promotes quicker recovery, better function, and a more natural feeling knee.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: A Word of Caution \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: The Principles behind Mechanical Alignment \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Have We Been Shooting at the Wrong Target?
