Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 4

Abstract

After removal of the proximal section of the bula, patients with medial compartment knee OA showed greater improvement in alignment, knee range of motion and pain at an early stage.The goal of this study to assess clinical outcomes of patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis treated by proximal bular osteotomy. A total of 40 patients were included in this study for follow-up of 12 months. At nal follow-up, mean lateral joint space were and 6.2±0.5 mm which were signicantly lower than preoperatively. Mean KSS at nal follow-up was 90.7±29.5, which was signicantly larger than the preoperative score (43.0±19.3). Mean VAS score at nal follow-up was 1.7±1.57 which was signicantly lower than the preoperative data (7.73±0.88). Four patients subsequently underwent total knee arthroplasty at a mean of 10.2 months (range, 8-12 months).
