Use of different therapies for knee osteoarthritis in the clinic was also evaluated.MethodsData were collected on patient age, sex, body mass index (BMI), visual analog scale (VAS) pain, ethnic background, valgus/varus deformity at the knee and overpronation of the forefoot. Kellgren-Lawrence...
Varus deformity, the most common deformity caused by osteoarthritis of the knee, involves asymmetric wear of the medial cartilage and eventually the bone. Ligamentous structures can be involved, potentially leading to a fixed deformity with a contracture. Alternatively, varus deformity can be ...
old boy who sustained a nondisplaced fracture of the right proximal tibial metaphysis 15 months previously. The fracture healed uneventfully. The valgus deformity occurred shortly after cast removal. In terms of the mechanical axis, the right knee has a 22° valgus alignment versus 5° on the ...
Correction of the axial malalignment to slow down wear and tear of the medial compartment of the knee in instances of medial compartment osteoarthritis with varus deformity. Return to nearly normal weight-bearing ability of the knee. Indications Patients up to a biologic age of 65 years with me...
Varus knee deformity is very common, and it can be classified according to the severity and reducibility of the deformity. Preoperative planning is mandatory to obtain a good result. Both clinical and radiological planning should be carefully performed, particularly focused on collateral ligament deficie...
In the early stage of knee osteoarthritis (KO), mechanical stresses cause changes in the subchondral bone, and the progression of OA increases the varus deformity of the knee [12,13]. This phenomenon increases the mechanical stresses through the medial compartment, further aggravating the degree ...

The results in ninety-three knees that had been treated by proximal tibial opening-wedge osteotomy for varus deformity and osteoarthritis of the medial compartment were evaluated after a mean length of follow-up of 11.5 years (range, ten to thirteen years). After ten years, only forty-two (45...
Proximal tibial osteotomy for osteoarthritis with varus deformity. A 10-13 year follow-up study. J Bone Joint Surg Am High tibial osteotomy and ligament reconstruction for varus angulated anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees. The anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knee with varus alignment. An ...
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...
