“…16,49 Previous studies on patients with total knee arthroplasty, high tibial osteotomy, and following ACL reconstruction have shown that good preoperative knee function significantly influences postoperative outcomes. 22,38,41,65 However, this study cannot establish whether this program is optimal, as it was not compared to other more or less aggressive options.…”

“…36,42 Several studies have shown that quadriceps and hamstrings strength is directly related to knee function and disability. 37,41,48 In addition, hip muscle weakness may influence loading patterns in the knee that could be detrimental for patients with articular cartilage lesions. 13 Rehabilitation programs that focus on muscle strengthening in patients with knee OA have demonstrated improved pain and knee function, along with substantial strength gains.…”

“…Furthermore, studies have shown that, for other musculoskeletal injuries, good preoperative function is essential for good postoperative results. 21,38,41,65,68 Hence, teaching patients appropriate exercises to perform and using a structured exercise program to optimize preoperative knee function could also be of potential benefit for patients with full-thickness articular cartilage lesions who require a surgical repair.…”

“…This was a shortcoming of this novel method, which may have affected the postoperative results of some patients and caused other complications [ 41 ]. It might be expected that long-term incomplete weight-bearing would produce muscular atrophy, loss of proprioception, and decreased physical activity [ 42 ]. Therefore, strict surgical indications and appropriate pre- and postoperative rehabilitation plans are essential.…”

Background To identify medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) prognostic factors with wedge-shaped spacer implantation (spacer-type MOWHTO) for varus medial compartment knee osteoarthritis. Methods Patients who underwent spacer-type MOWHTO between August 2018 and September 2019 were prospectively enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into effective group and invalid group based on the Western Ontario and McMasters University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score one year postoperatively. The variables assessed at baseline and one year postoperatively including age, sex, body mass index (BMI), Kellgren–Lawrence (K–L) grade, hip–knee–ankle angle (HKAA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), posterior tibial slope angle (PTSA), Blackburn–Peel index (BPI), duration of symptoms, and WOMAC score were compared. Prognostic factors were analyzed using logistic regression, and the corresponding odds ratios were also calculated. Results A total of 104 patients were enrolled in the study protocol at one year postoperatively. The WOMAC score decreased from 72.39 ± 12.95 at baseline to 20.06 ± 12.96 at one year postoperatively. Univariate analysis revealed that the significant predictors of the WOMAC score were age > 70 years, BMI > 30 kg/m2, K–L grade IV, and pre-HKAA > 10° (P < 0.1 for all). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that age > 70 (OR = 4.861) and K–L grade IV (OR = 6.590) were significantly associated with the higher WOMAC score at one year postoperatively. Conclusions Spacer-type MOWHTO is an effective treatment for osteoarthritis with varus deformity. The prognostic factors for spacer-type MOWHTO are age and K–L grade.

Background: To identify the medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) prognostic factors with wedge-shaped spacer implantation (spacer-type MOWHTO) for varus medial compartment knee osteoarthritis.Methods: Patients who underwent spacer-type MOWHTO between August 2018 and September 2019 were prospectively enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups based on Western Ontario and McMasters University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores of 40 points at 1 year postoperatively: the effective group (n=88, 84.6%), with post-WOMAC scores 40 or less, and the invalid group (n=16, 15.4%), with post-WOMAC scores more than 40. The variables assessed at baseline and 1 year postoperatively including age, sex, body mass index (BMI), Kellgren-Lawrence (K-L) grade, hip-knee-ankle angle (HKAA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), posterior tibial slope angle (PTSA), Blackburn-Peel index (BPI), duration of symptoms and WOMAC score, were compared. Prognostic factors were analyzed using logistic regression, and the corresponding odds ratios were also calculated.Results: A total of 104 patients were enrolled in the study protocol at 1 year postoperatively. The WOMAC score decreased from 72.39±12.95 at baseline to 20.06±12.96 at 1 year postoperatively. The preoperative varus was corrected to a neutral position or to mild valgus. In addition, the PTSA was decreased. At the same time, the patellar height was not significantly changed postoperatively. Univariate analysis revealed that the significant predictors of the WOMAC score were age >70 years, BMI >30 kg/m², K-L grade IV, and pre-HKAA >10° (P<0.1 for all). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that age>70 (OR=4.861) and K-L grade IV (OR=6.590) were significantly associated with the WOMAC score at 1 year postoperatively.Conclusion: Spacer-type MOWHTO is an effective treatment for osteoarthritis with varus deformity. The prognostic factors for spacer-type MOWHTO were age and K-L grade.Level of evidence: III
