Effect of bone morphology of the tibia plateau on joint line convergence angle in medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy

Abstract Background Change in the joint line convergence angle (JLCA) of the knee after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is difficult to predict accurately. Given that any change in JLCA is intra-articular, the shape of the articular surface, including the bone morphology of the proximal tibia, may affec...
