control group
trumatch group
Arm Description
control group will have standard instrumentation of their knee replacement
the trumatch patient will have custom instruments made from preop CT scans
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Alignment of Knee - Measured Mechanical Axis From CT Data
the mean knee mechanical axis was determined from 3D CT data - negative value designates varus alignment
Secondary Outcome Measures

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The hypothesis of this study is that total knee alignment will be improved by preoperative planning from CT scans and the production of custom instruments compared to the use of standard instruments.
Detailed Description
Patients will be randomized to have either customized knee instruments or standard generic instrumentation for primary total knee replacement. Postoperative CT scan will be used to determine alignment of each group.
