Puntos clave

To investigate the relationship between opening width and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels with 12-month radiographic gap healing after osteotomy.
Analyzed data from patients who underwent medial open-wedge distal tibial tuberosity osteotomy.
Measured serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and assessed radiographic gap healing at 12 months.
Patients with larger opening widths showed inferior radiographic gap healing.
Low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was linked to poorer healing outcomes.

Resumen

Large opening width and low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D status were associated with inferior 12-month radiographic gap healing after medial open-wedge distal tibial tuberosity osteotomy.
