High tibial osteotomy becomes increasingly important in the treatment of cartilage damage
or osteoarthritis of the medial compartment with concurrent varus deformity. HTO produces a …

The knee joint, as the main lower limb motor joint, is the most vulnerable and susceptible
joint. The knee injuries considerably impact the normal living ability and mental health of …

Detailed knowledge about loading of the knee joint is essential for preclinical testing of
implants, validation of musculoskeletal models and biomechanical understanding of the …

CONTEXT: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a musculoskeletal disorder primarily affecting the older
population and resulting in chronic pain and disability. Biomechanical variables, associated …

Background Coronal deformity correction with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an important
feature in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). The hypothesis of this study was that bone …

OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that selected gait kinematics, particularly lateral trunk
lean, observed in patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis explain variation in …

Background Hip abductor muscle weakness may result in impaired frontal-plane pelvic
control during gait, leading to greater medial compartment loading in people with knee …

Objective To evaluate the effect of medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy on gait,
radiographic, and patient‐reported outcomes over a 2‐year postoperative period in patients …

A three-dimensional (3D) knee joint computational model was developed and validated to
predict knee joint contact forces and pressures for different degrees of malalignment. A 3D …

Background The alignment correction after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is made both by
bony correction and soft-tissue correction around the knee. Change of the joint-line …
