The results indicated that subjects with high intraoperative patellar tendon strain during passive flexion of the knee had more restricted postoperative knee flexion. Therefore, the tightness of the knee extensor mechanism measured at total knee arthroplasty is a good predictor of maximum postoperative range of flexion.
