Abstract EN
High tibial osteotomy becomes increasingly important in the treatment of cartilage damage or osteoarthritis of the medial compartment with concurrent varus deformity.
HTO produces a postoperative valgus limb alignment with shifting the load-bearing axis of the lower limb laterally.
However, maximizing procedural success and postoperative knee function still possess many difficulties.
The key to improve the postoperative satisfaction and long-term survival is the understanding of the vital biomechanics of HTO in essence.
This review article discussed the alignment principles, surgical technique, and fixation plate of HTO as well as the postoperative gait, musculoskeletal dynamics, and contact mechanics of the knee joint.
We aimed to highlight the recent findings and progresses on the biomechanics of HTO.
The biomechanical studies on HTO are still insufficient in the areas of gait analysis, joint kinematics, and joint contact mechanics.
Combining musculoskeletal dynamics modelling and finite element analysis will help comprehensively understand in vivo patient-specific biomechanics after HTO.
