The varus/valgus alignment of the tibial components of 350 total knee arthroplasties was assessed radiologically. All the tibial components were implanted using an extramedullary guide under the supervision of the senior author. Of components, 96.3% were implanted within 2° of the perpendicular to ...
A valgus knee is often compared to a dysplastic hip as the pathoanatomy is believed needing correction to prevent complications such as patellar and femorotibial instability. While KA technique is probably suitable for slight to moderate constitutional valgus alignment [12,14,15,19], uncertainties ...
This study tested whether alignment influences the risk of incident and progressive radiographic tibiofemoral osteoarthritis. METHODS: In an observational, longitudinal study of the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study cohort, full-limb x-rays to measure alignment were acquired at baseline and knee x-rays ...
How to manage knee arthritis: best practices for treatment prior to orthopaedic referral Their topics include the biomechanics of the knee, high tibia osteotomy surgery, arthroscopic debridement, preoperative planning, the first surgical approach, surgical exposure, ligament balancing techniques, correcting ...
The authors report on the clinical and roentgenographic results of 50 patients (52 knees) who had had a high tibial osteotomy for correction of varus deformity with medical compartment osteoarthritis of the knee. The average follow-up period was 5.3 years (range 3.7 to 12 years). The results...

BACKGROUND: Coronal deformity correction with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an important feature in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). The hypothesis of this study was that bone morphology would be different in varus and valgus deformity, both before osteoarthritis development as well as during...
b. Valgus Deformity at Knee The other common skeletal growth manifestation at the knee is a valgus deformity. This can be present during the first decade. An early report of treatment of valgus deformity of the knee in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis by asymmetric stapling was by Laine and Mikkels...
Background The results of conservative treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA) are generally evaluated in epidemiological studies with clinical outcome measures as primary outcomes. Biomechanical evaluation of orthoses shows that there are potentially beneficial biomechanical changes to joint loading; however, ...
Medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy for the treatment of degenerative varus knee osteoarthritis in geriatric patients: a retrospective study Article Open access 06 October 2023 Introduction Hallux Abductus Valgus (HAV) was first described by Carl Hueter1 and is characterized as one of the most...
