Does component axial rotational alignment affect clinical outcomes in Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty?

Background: Limited studies have examined the relationship between axial rotational alignment and functional outcome in mobile-bearing UKA. The aims of this study was to determine the correlation between component axial rotational alignment and functional outcomes, and to recommend a safety range for component rotation for Oxford UKA.

Methods: A retrospective study of 83 Oxford UKA was performed in 67 patients.
