Medial joint line obliquity and medial meniscus tear were associated with medial meniscal extrusion: A case–control study

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics
Purpose Medial meniscal extrusion is a key factor in accelerating knee osteoarthritis. Medial joint line obliquity causes increased contact pressure on the medial meniscus, which potentially induces medial meniscal extrusion.

Knee-ankle joint line angle: a significant contributor to high-degree knee joint line obliquity in medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) changes the knee joint inclination in the coronal plane, which can be compensated by the ankle joint.

Analysis of Knee Joint Line Obliquity after High Tibial Osteotomy [PDF]

Journal of Knee Surgery, 2016
The aim of this study was to evaluate which lower extremity alignment (knee and ankle joint) parameters affect knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) in the coronal plane after open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO). Overall, 69 knees of patients that underwent OWHTO were evaluated using radiographs obtained preoperatively and from 6 weeks to 3 months ...

Knee Joint Line Obliquity Causes Tibiofemoral Subluxation That Alters Contact Areas and Meniscal Loading [PDF]

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021
Background: Little scientific evidence is available regarding the effect of knee joint line obliquity (JLO) before and after coronal realignment osteotomy. Hypotheses: Higher JLO would lead to abnormal relative position of the femur on

Association of coronal knee phenotype and joint line obliquity with proximal tibiofibular joint morphology in advanced osteoarthritis

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery
Purpose The proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) is biomechanically related to the tibiofemoral joint and may influence load transmission across the knee. However, it remains unclear whether PTFJ morphology is associated with coronal knee phenotype, joint ...

The actual knee function was not influenced by joint line obliquity after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy [PDF]

SICOT-J, 2020
Purpose: Excessive joint line obliquity (JLO) after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) induces detrimental stress on the articular cartilage. The purpose of this article is to assess the correlation between JLO and the clinical results after OWHTO.

Assessment of joint line obliquity and its related frontal deformity using long-standing radiographs

Journal of Orthopaedics, 2023
To investigate how radiographic techniques and osteoarthritis grade influence measurements of knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) and KJLO-related frontal deformity, and to propose preferable KJLO measurement methods.Forty patients with symptomatic medial knee osteoarthritis indicated for high tibial osteotomy were assessed.

Using the Lower Limb Adduction Angle to Predict Postoperative Knee Joint-Line Obliquity After Open-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021
Background: Knee joint-line orientation is altered after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO), and excessive joint-line obliquity (JLO) can adversely affect outcomes.

Clinical relevance of joint line obliquity after high tibial osteotomy for medial knee osteoarthritis remains controversial: a systematic review

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2023
AbstractPurposeTo systematically review the literature on the association between knee joint line obliquity (KJLO) and clinical outcome after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) for medial knee osteoarthritis and summarize the KJLO cut‐off value used when studying this association. MethodsA systematic search was conducted in three databases(PubMed, Embase, and
