Estimation of the proper gap ratio using preoperative radiography for posterior tibial slope maintenance in biplanar open wedge high tibial osteotomy

Abstract Background This study aimed to estimate the ratio of the anterior and posterior gaps before surgery that can minimize the posterior tibial slope (PTS) change through preoperative radiography, and to confirm whether the use of the block helps maintain the PTS during open wedge high tibial os...
