The present study aims to evaluate the long-term and medium-term outcomes of different knee osteotomy techniques in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in patients with lower limb malalignment. This evaluation is necessary in the current context of research on the treatment and prevention of knee osteoarthritis through treatments that do not involve or allow for the postponement of prosthetic replacement. Among the biological treatments performed in orthopedic clinical practice, osteotomy is one of the most promising. However, further long-term evaluations are needed to more clearly determine the indications and potential of this type of intervention, considering the various surgical procedures described for performing it.

Primary | Lysholm Knee Score | It is a validated measurement scale that assesses knee functionality through 8 items, which help determine the condition of the knee in response to the functional demands of daily activities. This evaluation form is commonly used to assess the outcomes of surgery in patients who have undergone operations for ligament or meniscal injuries of the knee. The final score is obtained by summing the various scores from the different items and ranges from 0 to 100. The scores are divided into subgroups: Excellent (95-100); Good (84-94); Fair (65-83); Poor (<64). | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) | The IKDC form is a subjective knee evaluation module that reflects the limitations on activities an individual can perform in daily life and sports, as well as the presence or absence of symptoms. There are three main domains of the IKDC evaluation form: Symptoms, which include pain, stiffness, swelling, and a sense of locking; Sports and daily activities; Current knee function and function before the injury. The questionnaire consists of 10 questions: seven items investigate the patient's symptoms, one item addresses sports participation, one item-comprising 9 points-concerns the difficulties the patient experiences in performing daily activities, and the last item measures the current functionality of the knee.
The score ranges from 0 to 100, with 100 representing the absence of limitations and symptoms; the further away from this score, the worse the result. The scores can be divided into four groups: excellent (80-100), good (60-80), fair (30-60), and poor (0-30). |

Secondary | Objective IKDC(IKDC standard evaluation form) | It represents a clinical form completed by the physician following a thorough objective examination of the knee, during which various clinical tests are performed to evaluate potential joint deformities, objective instability, and meniscal injuries. The obtained score determines an objective evaluation grade codified using Roman letters. According to this scale, grade "A" is assigned to a knee with "normal, healthy" functionality, grade "B" is assigned to a knee with "nearly normal" functionality, grade "C" is assigned to a knee with "moderately abnormal" functionality, and grade "D" is assigned to a knee with "severely abnormal" functionality. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | VAS (visual analog scale) | It is a unidimensional quantitative numeric pain rating scale with 10 points. The scale requires the patient to select the number that best describes the intensity of their pain, from 0 to 10, at that specific moment. 0 means no pain and 10 indicates the worst possible pain. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | SF-36 (Short Form-36 Health Survey) | It is the most well-known and widely used health-related quality of life measurement tool in international literature. It assesses various health concepts through 36 multiple-choice questions, with the data aggregated into 8 scales that investigate: physical functioning, role limitations due to physical health, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health. Additionally, there is one question about changes in health status over the past year. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Tegner Score | It allows for the estimation of a subject's level of physical activity with a score ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 represents 'incapacity' and 10 represents 'participation in competitive sports, such as national or international level soccer.' This score is the most commonly used to define the level of physical activity in patients with knee disorders. Additionally, the patient will be asked how many years they have been active in sports and whether the reason for reducing or ceasing activity is related to knee pathology or not. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Hip circonference | Measuring the thigh circumference at 5 cm and 15 cm above the superior pole of the patella allows for the assessment of muscle trophism in the subjects under examination, thereby evaluating the potential influence of the technique used on the knee's extensor apparatus. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Anterior knee pain / pain during knee flexion | To specifically assess the symptoms of the femoropatellar joint, patients will be asked to answer these questions in a dichotomous manner (YES/NO). | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Patient satisfaction | In order to assess the level of patient satisfaction, they will be asked to respond to the question "Are you satisfied with the surgical intervention?" Once again, the response will be dichotomous. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Radiographic evaluation | The study will collect clinical and imaging data from patients to assess the development of osteoarthritis and other radiographic anomalies. If patients lack radiological documentation according to the study protocol post-intervention, weight-bearing lower limb X-rays and lateral projection X-rays of the operated knee will be conducted to evaluate osteoarthritis severity using the Kellgren-Lawrence scale. This scale categorizes osteoarthritis into 5 grades based on joint space reduction and osteophyte presence. Additionally, computer-assisted quantitative analyses will be performed on radiographic images at the collaborating facility for precise measurement of pre- and post-operative joint angles. | 24 months after surgery | |
Secondary | Complications or subsequent interventions | Any complications and subsequent interventions will be documented and recorded in the Case Report Form (CRF). | 24 months after surgery |
