Abstract:
Objective:To compare the clinical effect of high tibial osteotomy (HTO) with Giebel blade plate or straddle nail internal fixation for the treatment of osteoarthritis of knee with varum.Methods:Twenty-three cases of knee OA with genu varum were performed with HTO,in which 8 case by using Giebel blade plate and 15 cases by using straddle nail.Results:All patients were followed up.The genu varum defection were corrected obviously.Six months after operation,comparison between the two groups showed no significant differences in scoring on HSS standard.One case of nail rupture and two cases of loss of anticipant angle occurred in the group of straddle nail.Conclusion:HTO with either Giebel blade plate or straddle nail both apparently shows many advantages in the treatment of osteoarthritis of knee.HTO with Giebel blade plate can exercise more early and have much less complications than HTO with straddle nail internal fixation.
