Description

Course Overview

We are excited to announce the Fourth Annual Kinematic Knee Alignment Course in Las Vegas, NV, May 15–16, 2026. Randomized controlled trials have shown superior clinical outcomes for kinematic alignment (KA) when compared to traditional mechanical alignment (MA) TKA. Now with reported excellent mid- and long-term survivorship, KA is becoming a mainstream treatment option. Through lectures and cadaveric sessions, participating surgeons will have the opportunity to learn KA philosophy from world experts and execute surgical techniques with both manual instrumentation and cutting-edge surgical technology. We hope you’ll join us in Las Vegas in May!

Course Objectives

As a result of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Define modern knee anatomy and its relationship to KA philosophy

  • Explain the differences between Kinematic Alignment, Manual Alignment and many advertised personalized alignment techniques

  • Share published outcomes on KA

  • Provide participants with a hands-on cadaver experience with both manual instrumented KA technique and robotic KA technique

Who Should Attend

Orthopaedic surgeons in practice performing TKA as well as fellows and upper-level residents going into adult reconstruction, sports medicine and lower extremity specialization.
