Study population: Data Collection: The study and patients were collected according to number of patients, sex, age, Bodi Mass Index , Range of Motion ,type of plate \& Screws used , Degree of deformity . Digital radiography, functional scores, software was used for statistical analysis. compare the Posterior Tibial Slope between the different Posterior Tibial Slope sides and sexes. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the Posterior Tibial Slope between the different age groups. Posterior Tibial Slope was evaluated in all studies according to radiographic.

About this study

High tibial osteotomy has been established as an efficient surgical intervention for young patients with uni-compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee. The principle of this surgery involves the realignment of the lower extremity to shift the load distribution from the medial compartment into the lateral compartment, thus leading to a decrease in symptoms related to medial compartment knee Osteoarthritis However, medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy is also known to affect the posterior tibial slope angle , and it is reported that posterior tibial slope angle increases after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy .

Read the detailed description

High tibial osteotomy has been established as an efficient surgical intervention for young patients with uni-compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee. Medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy is a well established surgery for patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis its most notable advantages include the precision of intraoperative angular correction, absence of the risk of peroneal nerve palsy in fibular osteotomy, absence of leg shortening, and preservation of bone stock.

The principle of this surgery involves the realignment of the lower extremity to shift the load distribution from the medial compartment into the lateral compartment, thus leading to a decrease in symptoms related to medial compartment knee Osteoarthritis However, medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy is also known to affect the posterior tibial slope angle , and it is reported that posterior tibial slope angle increases after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy .

Satisfactory outcomes after surgery require optimal realignment both in the sagittal and coronal planes; in fact, poor realignment could lead to unsatisfactory clinical outcomes. An unintentional increase in posterior tibial slope angle after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy may influence knee kinematics and stability in the sagittal plane, which could lead to anterior translation of the tibial plateau, anterior shift of the tibiofemoral contact area, and subsequent redistribution of pressure into the posterior tibial plateau (particularly in knees with injured anterior cruciate ligaments). These conditions could result in articular cartilage degradation and further knee disability

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Genu Varum, run by Al-Azhar University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Effect of Open Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy on the Posterior Tibial Slope In Skeletally Mature Patient (time frame: Measure Posterior tibial slope by X Ray in Lateral View and Evaluate the effect of tibial slope angle change on the clinical outcome at 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Mar 2024.
