Finite element analysis confirms the optimal apex position in medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy to avoid lateral hinge fracture

Abstract Purpose Lateral hinge fracture is a significant complication of medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy. While fracture risk is closely associated with the osteotomy apex position, the optimum position remains variable within the literature. Our hypothesis is that stresses at the osteoto...
