Stress Distribution Patterns of the Femorotibial Joint After Medial Closing-Wedge Distal Femoral Varus Osteotomy: An Evaluation Using Computed Tomography Osteoabsorptiometry
The mean lateral ratio was significantly greater in the preoperative OA group compared with the control group. MCW-DFVO resulted in a redistribution of HDA from the lateral to the medial compartment of the proximal tibial articular surface. The extent of alignment correction after MCW-DFVO was closely linked to the shifts in HDA distribution, reflecting changes in stress distribution.
