Abstract
- Coronal and sagittal plane knee malalignments have been shown to increase the forces on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) grafts after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). Studies have shown the benefit of high tibial osteotomy to address coronal and sagittal imbalance in revision ACLR. The purpose of this article is to further describe the use of osteotomy by reviewing preoperative planning, indications, techniques, and outcomes of high tibial opening and closing wedge as well as anterior tibial closing wedge osteotomies in the setting of ACLR.
