Conditions:

Eligibility:

All Genders

20-60 years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

The purpose of this RCT is to investigate whether high tibial osteotomy using 3D printed patient specific guides aiming at 55% correction is non-inferior to aiming at 62%.

Detailed Description

HTO should play a major role in modern treatment algorithms for knee overload and osteoarthritis. By transferring load from the failing/osteoarthritic compartment of the knee to a healthier compartmen...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients having accepted and signed the informed consent form before surgery
  • Patients aged 30-60 years
  • Patients with an indication for primary HTO based on anamnestic, clinical and radiological findings leading to the diagnosis of major medial knee compartment overload symptoms
  • Mechanical varus axis of 3-9 deg. (calculated on full length weightbearing X-ray (FLWB))
  • Correctable angular deformity on the tibia only (medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) + planned correction \< 95 deg. Lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA) \<92 deg.)
  • Maximal calculated gap height 14 mm
  • Only the first knee will be included if later contralateral HTO

  • Earlier septic arthritis/osteomyelitis in the affected leg
  • Previous major surgery affecting leg function. Earlier knee arthroscopic procedures like ACL-reconstruction are not excluded
  • Planned combined procedures involving HTO + ACL/PCL-reconstruction, meniscal transplantation or meniscal root fixation is excluded
