Tibial shaft fracture after medial open‐wedge distal tibial tuberosity osteotomy: A case report

We report a case of tibial shaft fracture after open‐wedge distal tibial tuberosity osteotomy (OWDTO). The use of a lag screw for a lateral hinge fracture in OWDTO requires careful postoperative rehabilitation and follow‐up. We discuss concerns related to the mechanical strength at the osteotomy sit...

description We report a case of tibial shaft fracture after open‐wedge distal tibial tuberosity osteotomy (OWDTO). The use of a lag screw for a lateral hinge fracture in OWDTO requires careful postoperative rehabilitation and follow‐up. We discuss concerns related to the mechanical strength at the osteotomy site after OWDTO to prevent fracture.
