From: How to achieve an optimal alignment in medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy?
Perioperative change in the soft tissue tension around the knee. a Preoperative standing and supine knee radiographs. b Preoperative and postoperative scanogram. The difference of joint line convergence angle between weight-bearing and supine X-ray implies the possibility of soft tissue tension change after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy. The medial joint space is opened, and the lateral joint space is closed by shifting the weight-bearing axis after medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy. This results in unexpected overcorrection
