Purpose Medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) is an accepted option in the treatment of medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee in young and active patients. Functional results are closely correlated to the correction of the mechanical axis of the lower limb. Although several angular and geometrical methods and values have been proposed in the past, the ideal target is still debated. In addition, it is important to have a deep correlation between the planned correction and the achieved correction after surgery. The aim of the present systematic review was to identify the ideal coronal correction after MOWHTO and the most accurate method to achieve it. Methods A systematic review of the literature was completed on July 3rd 2020 in the Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane Reviews, and Google Scholar databases using the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms: ``high tibial osteotomy{''} AND ``accuracy{''} OR ``planning{''}. Results 28 studies were included

Purpose There is a lack of standardization in the measurement of lower limb torsional alignment. Normal values published in the literature are inconsistent. A 3D-CT-scan-based method was used in a healthy population to define the femoral neck version (FNV) and the tibial torsion (TT) and their relationship with demographic parameters. The study objectives were (1) to define normal values of lower limb torsional alignment, (2) to estimate inter- and intra-individual variations of torsional deformity of healthy individuals' lower limbs. The hypothesis was that FNV and TT values would be influenced by patient characteristics such as gender, age, and ethnicity, and would have low side-to-side asymmetry. Methods Torsional landmarks of the lower limbs from 191 healthy subjects were automatically calculated with a 3D CT-scan-based program. The FNV was defined by the angle between the femoral neck axis and the femoral posterior condylar line. The TT angle was considered between the tibial plateau axis and the axis of the ankle. For the former, two alternatives were considered: the line connecting the more medial and lateral point of the medial and lateral plateau, respectively (method 1
