In order to improve the survival rate of the knee prosthesis, we believe that a surgeon should aim to place the total knee components in the position of: overall anatomical knee alignment at an angle of 3-7.5° valgus; femoral component alignment, 2-8.0° valgus; femoral sagittal alignment, 0-3°; tibial coronal alignment, 90°; tibial sagittal alignment, 0-7°; femoral rotational alignment, 2-5° external rotation; and tibial rotational alignment, 2-5° external rotation.
