  • Title: High tibial osteotomy for osteoarthritis of the knee: a changing concept.
    Author: Shoji H, Insall J.
    Journal: Int Surg; 1976 Jan; 61(1):11-4. PubMed ID: 1270195.
    Abstract:
    High tibial osteotomy is most successful in patients with osteoarthritis with mild varus deformity which is not associated with subluxation of flexion contracture. Success in the valgus knee is limited. If tibial osteotomy is indicated, undercorrection is undesirable in the varus knee while overcorrection is undesirable in the valgus knee.
