Three-Dimensional Patient Specific Instrumentation and Cutting Guide for Medial Closing Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy to Correct Valgus Malalignment.

ABSTRACT: Achievement of appropriate mechanical knee alignment is crucial to ensure optimal clinical outcomes following osteotomy procedures about the knee. The use of patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) to assist in preoperative planning and intraoperative realignment has gained increasing popularity. The purpose of this article is to describe a surgical technique involving a medial closing wedge high tibial osteotomy performed using three-dimensional (3D) PSI and cutting guide to revise residual valgus deformity following failed distal femoral osteotomy. The correction angle, 3D position of the hinge and wedge, as well as final plate and screw position are planned preoperatively using virtual software and computed tomography imaging to allow precise surgical execution.

Tibial Condylar Valgus Osteotomy Combined With Medial Open-Wedge Distal Tuberosity Tibial Osteotomy.

Project description:Severe varus deformity in osteoarthritic knees is attributed not only to bony deformity but also to intra-articular deformity as a result of medial joint space narrowing with lateral joint space widening (increased joint line convergence angle). In such knees, correction of bony deformity by high tibial osteotomy (HTO) alone may not be capable of restoring physiological joint geometry and biomechanics. Tibial condylar valgus osteotomy (TCVO), an L-shaped osteotomy in the medial tibial condyle, has been proposed to improve articular stability and congruity by elevating the medial tibial joint line and addressing the articular component of the deformity; however, its surgical efficacy for correction of the valgus deformity is limited. Therefore a procedure combining HTO and TCVO can be a reasonable option to achieve restoration of the knee joint physiology in such situations. In our current practice, medial open-wedge distal tuberosity tibial osteotomy (MOW-DTO) has been the procedure of primary option among the HTO procedures to avoid patellofemoral overload which could be an inherent problem in medial open-wedge HTO. In this article, the surgical rationale and the combined procedure of TCVO and MOW-DTO are described.

Technique for Medial Closing-Wedge Proximal Tibia Osteotomy in the Valgus Knee.

Project description:Valgus malalignment can be corrected with a medial closing-wedge proximal tibia osteotomy in patients with symptomatic lateral compartment disease. Advantages of this technique include the inherent stability of the closing wedge with direct bone contact and reliable healing that enables early weight bearing and shorter recovery time. In addition, a tibial-based osteotomy alters joint contact forces in both flexion and extension versus femoral-based osteotomies. The purpose of this article is to present a reproducible technique for medial closing-wedge proximal tibia osteotomy and review the indications, preoperative planning, rationale, and clinical outcomes.

Medial Closing-Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy: Fixation With Proximal Tibial Locking Plate.

Project description:Distal femoral varus osteotomy is a well-established procedure for the treatment of lateral compartment cartilage lesions and degenerative disease, correcting limb alignment and decreasing the progression of the pathology. Surgical techniques can be performed with a lateral opening-wedge or medial closing-wedge correction of the deformity. Fixation methods for lateral opening-wedge osteotomies are widely available, and there are various types of implants that can be used for fixation. However, there are currently only a few options of implants for fixation of a medial closing-wedge osteotomy on the market. This report describes a medial, supracondylar, V-shaped, closing-wedge distal femoral osteotomy using a locked anterolateral proximal tibial locking plate that fits anatomically to the medial side of the distal femur. This is a great option as a stable implant for a medial closing-wedge distal femoral osteotomy.

Posterior Root Repair of Medial Meniscus Combined With Valgus Opening Wedge Tibial Osteotomy.

Project description:The medial meniscal root tear, a particular meniscal injury at the level of its posterior bone insertion, leads to a loss of impact absorption and load distribution capacity, similar to total meniscectomy. Therefore, its repair is fundamental for knee joint longevity. This type of injury often occurs in middle-aged patients with lower limbs varus malalignment, which results in mechanical overloading of the medial compartment and induces premature cartilage wear out. The success of meniscal root repair, with meniscal bone reinsertion, depends on the correction and realignment of varus deformities greater than 5° for physiological levels. In this situation, corrective tibial osteotomy combined with meniscal repair is indicated. Our goal is to describe the step-by-step technique of the valgus opening wedge tibial osteotomy combined with the arthroscopic reinsertion of the posterior meniscal root in tibia during the treatment of a patient with varus deformity and medial meniscus root tear.

Patient-Specific Instrumentation for Medial Closing Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy With Patellar Osteochondral Allograft.

Project description:The primary indications for performing a medial closing wedge distal femoral osteotomy are valgus knee malalignment, lateral knee compartment overload, lateral meniscus insufficiency, and/or lateral compartment osteoarthritis or cartilage damage. Without correction of this malalignment, there is an increased risk for chondral damage in the lateral and patellofemoral compartment of the knee. The optimal candidates for this procedure are young, active individuals with moderate to severe arthritis in the lateral compartment. Recently, preoperative planning for high tibial and distal femoral osteotomies (HTOs and DFOs) using 3-dimensional (3D) patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) has increased in popularity. Successful patient outcomes have been reported using this technique. This Technical Note illustrates our preferred technique that uses 3D PSI in addition to a patellar OCA transplant when treating a symptomatic cartilage lesion associated with genu valgum.

Tibial Tubercle-Sparing Anterior Closing Wedge Osteotomy With Cross-Screw Fixation to Correct Pathologic Posterior Tibial Slope.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction failure remains a commonly seen outcome despite advances in technique and graft options. Recent studies have shown that the declination of the tibial plateau slope in the sagittal plane affects the in situ stress on the anterior cruciate ligament. The native posterior tibial slope has been described to range from 7° to 10°. However, several authors have suggested that a posterior tibial slope >12° should be considered pathologic. Given the recent evidence, our institution has begun performing a tibial tubercle-sparing anterior closing wedge proximal tibial osteotomy with cross screw fixation to decrease sagittal plane tibial slope.

Medial Opening Wedge Proximal Tibial Osteotomy.

Project description:Genu varus malalignment can lead to medial compartment overload and progression of ipsilateral compartment osteoarthritis. To slow this process, a medial opening wedge proximal tibial osteotomy (PTO) can be performed. This type of PTO is indicated in patients with genu varus malalignment and isolated medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee, prior to or concurrent with medial compartment cartilage procedures or meniscal transplants, chronic posterolateral corner deficiency, or chronic anterior cruciate ligament deficiency. When treating ligamentous instability, a PTO can be performed in isolation, with simultaneous ligament reconstruction, or as a staged procedure with the osteotomy first, followed by ligament reconstruction if instability persists. Failure to address malalignment in cases of concurrent ligament reconstruction leads to increased stress on the graft and potential graft failure. One distinct advantage of this procedure is the ability to correct deformities in the sagittal and coronal planes. The purpose of this article was to describe our technique used to perform a medial opening wedge PTO.

Combined Medial Meniscus Allograft Transplantation and Open-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy Using a Patient-Specific Instrumentation Guide.

Project description:Despite technical advances in meniscus allograft transplantation, there remains a need to improve postoperative outcomes.1 , 2 The bone plugs technique using osseous fixation of the anterior and posterior roots has demonstrated increased stability and long-term survival. Recently, the importance of limb alignment has been demonstrated for this procedure. In case of malalignment, osteotomy is essential to improve the long-term viability of both meniscus allograft and cartilage. The recent introduction of patient-specific instrumentation has raised the possibility of making instrumentation specific to each patient achieving an optimal correction in a safe and reliable manner. This Technical Note describes the use of a combined medial meniscus allograft transplantation and open wedge high tibial osteotomy using a patient-specific instrumentation guide.

Anterior Open-Wedge Osteotomy to Correct Sagittal and Coronal Malalignment in a Case of Failed High Tibial Osteotomy and Failed Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Anterior open-wedge high tibial osteotomy of the proximal tibia is a reliable surgical procedure to treat genu recurvatum secondary to decreased posterior tibial slope. It is also useful in cases of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) deficiency, especially after a failed PCL reconstruction procedure as reversal of posterior tibial slope is a common risk factor for failure of PCL reconstruction. In some knee joints, reversed tibial slope may be associated with varus or valgus deformity. We describe correction of reverse posterior slope along with varus deformity, which may result from a poorly performed high tibial osteotomy leading to failure of reconstructed PCL. In our technique, both of the above deformities are corrected simultaneously, thereby addressing the sagittal and coronal malalignments of the knee with one osteotomy.

Anterior Closing-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy Using Patient-Specific Cutting Guide in Chronic Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Deficient Knees.

Project description:An increased posterior tibial slope has been identified as an independent risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft rupture, with a critical threshold of 12°. Surgical slope correction by anterior closing wedge (ACW)-high tibial osteotomy (HTO) can reduce ACL force and anterior tibial translation with good clinical outcomes when combined with revision ACL reconstruction. Performing ACW-HTO preserving the tibial tubercule can be challenging for inexperienced surgeons. Patient-specific cutting guides have been shown to be effective in facilitating the surgeon's learning curve in medial opening wedge-HTO by reducing operative time and the use of fluoroscopy as well as decreasing anxiety. The present technique describes a retro-tibial tubercule ACW-HTO using a patient-specific cutting guide.
