Retaining the medial collateral ligament in high tibial medial open-wedge osteotomy mostly results in post-operative intra-articular gap reduction
The current study aimed to evaluate how open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) without the release of medial collateral ligament (MCL) changes in vivo intra-articular joint space after the surgery.
