Fig. 1

Osteotomy configurations and loading conditions for MCW and LOW, fixed support (B) at the proximal end of the segmented femur and remote displacement (A). Higher meshed hinge area of cortical bone in scope from a posterior view. Mean compressive and tensile principal strain was read out for this region. MCW: Medial closed wedge; LOW: Lateral open wedge
