Graft materials provide greater static strength to medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy than when no graft is included

Graft materials provide greater static strength to medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy than when no graft is included

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to compare the stability of medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) with and without different graft materials. Good clinical and radiological outcomes have been demonstrated when either using or not using graft materials during MOWHTO. V...
