The efect of the high tibial osteotomy on bone density

Abstract

In order to investigate the effect of high tibial osteotomy (HTO) on the bone density; pre-operative and post-operative Dual X-ray Photon Absorptiometry (DEXA) analysis has been used.Bone density is measured in both knees in coronal plan with DEXA Analysis before HTO in 9 patients with osteoarthiritic knee joints (mean age: 60.3) and 7 months after HTO.One ROI is selected on each side; medial and lateral parts of proximal tibia, and distal femur. Unoperated-contralateral side measurements are used. as controls The average bone mineral density which is found to be 0.86 gr/cm2 in medial condyle of femur before HTO increased up to 0.95 gr/cm2 after HTO. In medial tibial plateau,it increased from 0.82 gr/cm2 to 0.98 gr/cm2. On the contralateral side;these measurements increased to 1.11 gr/cm2 and 1.07 gr/cm2 and 1.07 gr/cm2 . On the operated side; the bone density of all compartments except medial femoral condyle increased statistically significant. The increase in all the compartments of the contralateral unoperated side also found to be statistically significant. On the operated knee the ratio of the bone densit of the medial femoral condyle to the lateral is found to be increased. After HTO, the bone density of the bony structures around the knee joint increases significantly and the contralateral side.
