Summary

High tibial osteotomy has been established as an efficient surgical intervention for young patients with uni-compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee. The principle of this surgery involves the realignment of the lower extremity to shift the load distribution from the medial compartment into the lateral compartment, thus leading to a decrease in symptoms related to medial compartment knee Osteoarthritis However, medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy is also known to affect the posterior tibial slope angle , and it is reported that posterior tibial slope angle increases after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy .
