A hinge position distal to the adductor tubercle minimizes the risk of hinge fractures in lateral open wedge distal femoral osteotomy

PURPOSE: To evaluate the incidence and morphology of medial cortical hinge fractures in lateral open wedge distal femoral osteotomy (LOW-DFO) and to determine a safe zone for the position of the osteotomy hinge to minimize the risk of hinge fractures. METHODS: Consecutive patients who underwent LOW-...
