About
Dr. Fjorela Qordja is a leading orthopaedic researcher whose work is redefining alignment strategies in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Her primary research focus lies in the biomechanics of knee motion and the development of dynamic, patient-specific alignment classifications. Dr. Qordja’s most impactful contribution, her 2025 study on the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) axis, demonstrates that the HKA angle varies significantly during knee motion—a finding that challenges the long-standing reliance on static, radiographic measurements. Using robot-assisted intraoperative evaluation, she provided compelling evidence that dynamic alignment classifications, based on phenotype reproduction, offer a more accurate and functional approach than traditional mechanical alignment. This work, which has already garnered 9 citations in a short time, is poised to influence surgical planning and implant positioning in TKA. By advocating for a shift from static to dynamic alignment, Dr. Qordja is helping to pave the way for more personalized, motion-aware orthopaedic care, ultimately aiming to improve patient outcomes and implant longevity.
