Is Correctional Osteotomy Crucial in Primary Varus Knees Undergoing Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction?

Abstract

The stability and functional scores after ACL reconstruction were not adversely altered by primary varus alignment. Thus, if there is no medial compartment arthritis or varus thrust, we do not believe a correctional tibial osteotomy is crucial in primary varus knees undergoing ACL reconstruction.
