CPAK phenotypes in medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy: undercorrection as the key factor influencing clinical outcomes and cartilage regeneration

Puntos clave

• Clinical outcomes and cartilage regeneration are significantly influenced by undercorrection.
• Undercorrection was associated with a notable difference in outcomes by a factor of 1.5.
• Observational analysis involved patients receiving medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy for knee issues.
• Implications suggest that better correction could enhance recovery and cartilage health.
