Fixation method can affect posterior tibial slope in opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy: a retrospective study

Abstract Background Posterior tibial slope (PTS) alterations following open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) can cause instability and excessive tibial translation in the sagittal plane. These changes can be influenced by the type of fixation. This study aims to compare PTS changes between patien...
