Background:

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) success heavily relies on correct knee joint alignment.
Various alignment concepts exist, including mechanical alignment (MA), kinematic alignment (KA), and functional alignment (FA).
Functional alignment (FA) is an emerging concept, often utilizing robotic assistance, that prioritizes restoring native joint line anatomy and soft tissue balance.

Conclusions:

Functional alignment (FA) represents a significant advancement in TKA, potentially enhancing functional recovery and prosthesis longevity.
Robot-assisted FA-TKA requires further long-term studies to validate its efficacy and safety profile.
Continued research is crucial to support the widespread clinical application of functional alignment techniques in TKA.
