About
Juan Erquicia is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through precision surgical techniques and biomechanical analysis. His most impactful contributions focus on optimizing femoral component alignment to improve patient outcomes, particularly through the comparison of functional alignment versus classical measured resection methods. Erquicia’s research employs CT-based measurements to analyze critical anatomical relationships, such as the femoral anatomical-mechanical axis and posterior condylar-transepicondylar axis, demonstrating how functional alignment better preserves femoral joint line obliquity. This work has significant clinical implications, reducing coronal and axial positioning errors that can compromise joint stability and longevity. With his 2025 study already garnering citations, Erquicia is establishing himself as a key voice in evidence-based orthopedic surgery. His findings offer surgeons actionable data to refine TKA techniques, ultimately enhancing postoperative function and implant survival. For students and researchers, Erquicia’s work exemplifies how meticulous anatomical study translates directly into improved surgical practice, making him a notable figure in the ongoing evolution of joint replacement surgery.
