Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures. During the past decade patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) has been commercially introduced in order to simplify and make TKA surgery more effective, precise and efficient than conventional mechanical instrumentation (CI) and computer-assisted surgery (CAS). Nevertheless, there are critical arguments against PSI for routine use. The aim of the current manuscript is to describe advantages and limitations of PSI for primary TKA. Areas covered: By means of a description of the available literature different aspects are discussed (accuracy, clinical and functional outcomes, operative time, blood loss, efficiency and costs). Expert commentary: Most publications do not claim a significant increase in PSI accuracy over CI but they also don’t postulate PSIs accuracy is worse either. Regarding clinical aspects PSI did not appear to give any advantage over standard techniques although, equally, it did not appear to show any disadvantages. PSI seems to reduce operative time, could reduce perioperative blood loss and provides logistical benefits in the operation room. Further studies will be required to more thoroughly assess all the advantages and disadvantages of this promising technology as an alternative to CI and CAS.

Total knee arthroplasty is a consistently successful, cost-efficient, and highly effective surgical procedure for treating severe knee osteoarthritis. The success and longevity of total knee arthroplasty depend significantly on the fixation method used to secure the prosthetic components. This comprehensive review examines the primary fixation methods (cemented, cementless, and hybrid fixation), analysing their biomechanics, clinical outcomes, advantages, and disadvantages, focusing on recent advances and trends in total knee arthroplasty fixation.
