Twenty-five studies investigating 10, 679 knees were found to satisfy the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These studies described a variety of pre-operative and intra-operative factors which contribute to the development or correction of post-operative FFD. The only patient predictor of post-operative FFD was pre-operative FFD. The intra-operative steps described to correct FFD were: distal femoral resection, soft-tissue balancing (in the posterior and medial compartments), sagittal component flexion and posterior condylar offset. However, no studies investigated these in an integrated model.
