Abnormal stress in the proximal tibia modifies the bone mineral density distribution pattern, and drilling in the sclerotic region during total knee arthroplasty is correlated with enhanced prosthesis stability. ABSTRACT Objective In patients with varus deformity of the knee, the redistribution of the subchondral bone mineral density (BMD) of the tibia
