High tibial osteotomy with overcorrection of varus malalignment in medial gonarthrosis
Abstract
Seventy-eight knee joints with varus malalignment were examined preoperatively using three-point measurement. Operation was performed with or without 5 degrees overcorrection of the varus deformity using random selection. The overcorrection group showed significantly better results than the normal-correction group.
