    Mediolateral oversizing of TKA components can negatively impact clinical outcomes, including residual pain and knee function.

  • 2

    The study analyzed 142 patients to assess the relationship between component sizing and postoperative outcomes at one year.

  • 3

    CT scans were utilized to measure femoral and tibial dimensions preoperatively, comparing them to the implanted prosthesis sizes.

  • 4

    Oversizing was defined as a size difference greater than 0 mm, while undersizing was indicated by a negative size variation.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that there may be an oversizing threshold beyond which adverse effects on pain and function are observed.
