β¦ Synopsis
The results in relation to the correction achieved 1 year after surgery of a series of tibial osteotomies in 50 patients (52 knees) are presented with a total observation time of 10 years. Mean age at the time of osteotomy was 56 years. Overcorrected knees had a significantly better result after 10years. Progress of gonarthrosis occured in 6/34 overcorrected knees compared with 3/4 in the normo-and undercorrected group. One out of 34 overcorrected knees recurred in varus. Five knees were revised by knee arthroplasty or reosteotomy, one of which was overcorrected. Β© O e~ ,.M t"q rn

We performed a retrospective clinical and radiographic review of the long-term results of 64 hips in 53 patients who underwent intertrochanteric varus osteotomy for arthrosis of the hip at the pre-or early stage with acetabular dysplasia. Their average age at operation was 26 years. The average dura
## Abstract The goal of opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is to reduce excessive loading on the medial compartment of the knee by correcting varus deformity, thereby reducing pain and improving function. Although surgical outcome is reportedly poor in cases of underβ or overcorrection, the
