Biomechanical investigation of the type and configuration of screws used in high tibial osteotomy with titanium locking plate and screw fixation

BACKGROUND: To maintain the corrected alignment after high tibial osteotomy (HTO), fixation with titanium locking plate and screws is widely used in current practice; however, screw breakage is a common complication. Thus, this study was to investigate the mechanical stability of HTO with locking pl...
