Popis: In patients who have osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee in association with genu varum, a high tibial osteotomy (HTO) remains an important surgical option. The clinical outcome at 10 years continues to be favorable in more than 70% of the patients if the frontal angular malalignment has been corrected to 3–6 degrees of valgus.
