Factors affecting the incidence and management of fixed flexion deformity in total knee arthroplasty: A systematic review

This review has identified various pre-, intra- and post-operative factors predictive of post-operative FFD. In practice, these factors are likely to interact, and therefore further investigation in an integrated model is crucial to developing a statistically sound and reliable intraoperative algorithm for surgeons to follow when correcting fixed flexion deformity.
