Knee replacement study halted after just one patient

NCT ID NCT06617338

First seen Mar 29, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study aimed to see if using the alignment of a patient's healthy knee (instead of the arthritic one) during knee replacement surgery leads to better results. Only one person was enrolled before the study was stopped, so no meaningful conclusions can be drawn. The approach remains an interesting idea but needs more research.
