Distal femoral varus osteotomy combined with tibial plateau fresh osteochondral allograft for post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the knee

摘要

This study was conducted to examine the long-term survivorship and functional outcome of distal femoral varus osteotomy with fresh osteochondral allograft following failed lateral tibial plateau fracture surgery. We hypothesized that this procedure would be associated with a low rate of conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) at medium to long-term follow-up.
