Effect of the sagittal osteotomy inclination angle on the posterior tibial slope change in high tibial osteotomy: three-dimensional simulation study

Abstract In performing medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy, it is recommended not to alter the posterior tibial slope. However, it remains unclear whether the osteotomy inclination angle affects the posterior tibial slope in the sagittal plane. This study aimed to verify how anterior or posterio...
