Abstract

To retrospectively study the long term results of high tibial valgus osteotomy in management of primary medial compartment osteoarthritis, with special reference to patient satisfaction and functional assessment, we conducted this study in radiologically established 50 knees of patients with primary osteoarthrosis of knee. In these patients with medial compartment disease (varus knee), medial open wedge osteotomy was performed using full thickness iliac crest grafts. These were called for follow up after average 7.5 years and clinico-radiological assessment was done. Although many surgeons of the west do not favour this osteotomy, we found the procedure to be quite acceptable to our patients in whom the primary concerns of cost and squatting habits are well taken care of. The authors feel that this osteotomy is still relevant in the third world. Results do deteriorate with time but most patients consider the surgery satisfactory.
