Mechanical Alignment Planning

Mechanical Alignment Planning is a preoperative planning method that determines optimal prosthetic implant positioning and bone resection geometry in joint arthroplasty by aligning prosthetic components and bone cuts relative to the mechanical axes of the limb, which extend from the center of the femoral head to the center of the ankle and incorporate the hip-knee-ankle angle, thereby restoring neutral limb alignment and ensuring proper joint biomechanics.
