Abstract During progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA), gait biomechanics changes three-dimensionally; however, its characteristics and trunk posture according to OA severity remain unknown. The present study investigated three-dimensional knee joint biomechanics and trunk posture according to knee OA severity. Overall, 75 patients (93 knees) with medial knee OA [Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥ 2, grade 2: 20 patients with 24 knees (mean 60.0 years old); grade 3: 25 with 28 knees (mean 62.0 years old); grade 4: 30 with 41 knees (mean 67.9 years old)] and 14 healthy controls (23 knees, mean 63.6 years old) underwent gait analysis using an optical motion capture system and point cluster technique. In grade 2 knee OA, the relative contribution of the knee adduction moment (KAM) increased significantly (P |
