Table 4 Fracture risk for LOW and MCW depending on amount of correction

From: Finite element analysis of medial closing and lateral opening wedge osteotomies of the distal femur in relation to hinge fractures

  1. LOW Lateral open wedge, MCW Medial closed wedge, RF Risk for fracture, values greater than 1 stated in red indicate a hinge fracture, values smaller than 1 stated in green indicate an intact hinge
