Computer aided surgery has become established in the clinical routine over the past years. There are some very good studies which show that navigation optimizes reconstruction of the leg axis in total knee replacement. The question of why outliers occur in spite of navigation has to be asked. It is clear that total knee replacement is not only a bony procedure, but the soft tissues have an immense influence on postoperative stability of the prosthesis over the full range of movement. Current navigation systems allow visualization of the leg axis and size of the extension and flexion gap, and support the surgeon during soft tissue management. The current paper shows how the anatomic approach and the position of the patella influence soft tissue tension and support the surgeon during release of soft tissues in severe leg axis deformities.
