Finite element analysis of medial closing and lateral opening wedge osteotomies of the distal femur in relation to hinge fractures

PURPOSE: Intraoperative hinge fractures in distal femur osteotomies represent a risk factor for loss of alignment and non-union. Using finite element analysis, the goal of this study was to investigate the influence of different hinge widths and osteotomy corrections on hinge fractures in medial clo...
