  1. BMI Body mass index ratio, G-KJLO Knee joint line orientation relative to the ground, G-AJLO Ankle joint line orientation relative to the ground, TPI Tibia plateau inclination, MTFA Mechanical tibiofemoral angle, TW Tibial width, TL Tibial length, FCO Femoral condylar orientation, JSTA Joint space tilting angle, FBA Femoral bowing angle, SD Standard deviation
  2. aCorrection angle was defined as the value derived from subtraction of preoperative TPI from postoperative TP
