Abstract

Background: Open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) combined with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(ACLR) hasemerged as a promising surgical strategy for patients presenting with ACL deficiency and varus malalignment.Traditionally, ACL injuries have been managed with isolated reconstruction; however, increasing evidence suggests thatuncorrected malalignment may compromise graft integrity and lead to suboptimal outcomes. In particular, varus deformityand increased posterior tibial slope contribute to abnormal knee biomechanics, increased graft stress, and higher rates offailure following isolated ACLR.
