Technique for Medial Closing-Wedge Proximal Tibia Osteotomy in the Valgus Knee
Valgus malalignment can be corrected with a medial closing-wedge proximal tibia osteotomy in patients with symptomatic lateral compartment disease. Advantages of this technique include the inherent stability of the closing wedge with direct bone contact and reliable healing that enables early weight...

| description | Valgus malalignment can be corrected with a medial closing-wedge proximal tibia osteotomy in patients with symptomatic lateral compartment disease. Advantages of this technique include the inherent stability of the closing wedge with direct bone contact and reliable healing that enables early weight bearing and shorter recovery time. In addition, a tibial-based osteotomy alters joint contact forces in both flexion and extension versus femoral-based osteotomies. The purpose of this article is to present a reproducible technique for medial closing-wedge proximal tibia osteotomy and review the indications, preoperative planning, rationale, and clinical outcomes. |
