Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Preoperative planning in high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a critical step for achieving the desired correction and a clinically satisfactory outcome. Conventional radiography, navigation assistance and patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) are the 3 means of planning, but no prospective studies have compared precision between the 3. The aims of the present study were: (1) to analyze and compare correction precision between the 3 planning approaches at 1 year's follow-up; (2) to compare results to those reported in the literature; and (3) to analyze factors influencing the achievement of planned correction. HYPOTHESIS: The study hypothesis was that PSI provides more precise and reproducible planned correction than conventional methods or navigation. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Between June 2017 and June 2018, a multicenter non-randomized prospective observational study was conducted in 11 centers. One hundred and twenty-six patients with Ahlbäck grade I, II or III idiopathic medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis with stable knee were included and allocated to 3 preoperative planning groups: conventional (group 1), navigation (group 2) and PSI (group 3). Mean age at surgery was 51.2 years (range, 19-69 years; median, 53.2 years); 100 male, 26 female. Complete weight-bearing radiographic work-up was performed preoperatively and at 1 year's follow-up. The PSI group also underwent CT as part of guide production. Target angular correction and mechanical Hip-Knee-Ankle (HKA) axis were set preoperatively. The main endpoint was the difference between planned HKA and HKA at a minimum 12 months. RESULTS: Mean HKA difference was 1.1±3 in group 1, 2.1±2.6 in group 2 and 0.3±3.1 in group 3. Precision was better with PSI, but not significantly when comparing all 3 groups together. On pairwise intergroup comparison, there was a significant difference only between groups 2 and 3, in favor of PSI (P=0.011). DISCUSSION: None of the 3 techniques demonstrated superiority in achieving target correction at 1 year. The study hypothesis was thus not confirmed. All 3 techniques proved reliable and precise in HTO planning. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, prospective non-randomized comparative study.
