ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a successful joint-preserving procedure for the treatment of medial compartment osteoarthritis. Long-term survivorship of HTO ranges from 40% to 85%. There are consistent factors that predict failure.PURPOSE:
To determine the 20-year survival of HTO and identify predictors of failure. STUDYDESIGN:
Case series; Level of evidence, 4.METHODS:
A total of 100 consecutive patients with medial bone-on-bone arthritis were prospectively studied to provide long-term patient-reported outcome measures after lateral closing-wedge HTO and determine the time to failure. Failure was defined as conversion to arthroplasty (total knee arthroplasty or unicompartmental knee arthroplasty) or revision HTO.RESULTS:
At 20 years, HTO survival was determined in 95 patients, and 5 were lost to follow-up. The overall survivorship of HTO at 20 years was 44%. The significant factors that were associated with better survivorship were age <55 years, body mass index <30, and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index pain score >45. These factors were used to define the favorable candidates. In the favorable candidates, survivorship was 100% at 5 years, after which there was a gradual decline to 62% survival at 20 years. Of those with HTO survival, 32 of 33 (97%) reported satisfaction with surgery, with a mean Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Pain score of 91 and Activities of Daily Living score of 97.CONCLUSION:
HTO is a successful surgical option to treat medial compartment osteoarthritis and prevent the need for arthroplasty in young patients. The most suitable candidates for HTO are aged <55 years, are not obese, and have not progressed to severe symptomatic disability.Palavras-chave
