About this trial
The overall aim of the study is to compare navigated kinematically aligned total knee replacements (KA TKR) with navigated mechanically aligned TKR (MA TKR) in terms of function and ROM
The objectives are therefore:
1. To compare the functional outcomes of KA TKR versus MA TKR performed using navigation technique 2. To compare ROM and alignment of knee in the two groups
