Does the anteromedial plate position affect proximal screw length and worsen the clinical outcomes in medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy?

Does the anteromedial plate position affect proximal screw length and worsen the clinical outcomes in medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy?

Abstract Background During medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO), sometimes the plate tends to be positioned anteromedially. The plate position can affect the length of the proximal screw, which significantly affects stability after osteotomy. Therefore, research on the correlation amo...
