ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo compare the effect and prognosis of two kinds of internal fixation (improved Giebel blade plate and traditional straddle nail) after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) on osteoarthritis of knee with genu varus deformity. Methods37 knees of 32 cases were treated with straddle nail (25 knees) or Giebel blade plate (12 knees). All the cases were followed up for 6~28 months. ResultsThe clinical bone healing time of osteotomy was 8~12 weeks. There was no significant differences between 2 groups in the increased score in HSS Standard and in the clinical bone healing time. ConclusionBoth internal fixation with improved Giebel blade plate and traditional straddle nail get similarly satisfactory prognosis, while the former shows more advantages to allow early functional exercises.
