Comparative biomechanical analysis of tibial posterior slope in medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy vs. distal tuberosity osteotomy with and without anterior-posterior screw: a study using porcine tibia

Purpose While increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) is a concern post-medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO), the ability of distal tuberosity osteotomy (DTO) to maintain postoperative PTS after cyclic loading remains unverified. This study aims to determine whether PTS alterations signif...
