A supplemental screw enhances the biomechanical stability in medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy.
<h4>Background</h4>The supplemental screw technique was introduced for salvage of lateral hinge fracture in medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (owHTO). The efficacy of its use in protection of lateral hinge fracture and corresponding biomechanical behaviors remained unclear. The cur...
