Radiographic measurement of the preoperative (preop) and postoperative (postop) mechanical axis (MA) and the percentage of the mechanical axis (MA%). a The MA was defined as the angle between the femoral and tibial mechanical axes on an orthoroentgenogram. b The MA% shown on the orthoroentgenogram was evaluated by percentile denotation ([b/a] × 100), where a is the width of the tibia plateau and b is the distance from the medial border of the medial tibial condyle to the point at which the mechanical axis intersects the knee joint line
