BACKGROUND: To date, only a few studies have reported postoperative changes in coronal ankle alignment after valgus knee correction through medial closing wedge distal femoral varization osteotomy (MCWDFO). This study aimed to measure the changes of MCWDFO on coronal ankle and hindfoot alignment.
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the radiographic findings of 27 consecutive patients (34 cases) with knee valgus malalignment who underwent MCWDFO for either lateral knee joint osteoarthritis (OA) or recurrent patellar subluxation/dislocation (RPD). Several radiographic parameters were measured and compared based on the reason for operation, followed by the status of preoperative hindfoot alignment (hindfoot alignment angle [HAA] > 4 degrees, varus; -4 degrees ≤HAA ≤ 4 degrees, neutral; HAA < -4 degrees, valgus) in each group.
RESULTS: Overall, pre- and postoperative hindfoot alignments were within the neutral alignment range and were not significantly changed after the operation (P > .05). Nineteen cases were for lateral knee OA and 15 were for RPD, respectively. In both groups, preoperative neutral hindfoot alignments accounted for the largest portion (52.6% in the lateral OA group; 80.0% in the RPD group). Postoperatively, regardless of the reason for operation, hindfoot alignments changed toward the neutral range in all subgroups (ie, no changes in the preoperative neutral group; increased in the valgus group; decreased in the varus group).
CONCLUSION: We recommend that surgeons leave the hindfoot untouched when they plan the MCWDFO to correct knee joint valgus malalignment concomitant with hindfoot valgus or varus deviation as the hindfoot malalignment appears to change toward the neutral range postoperatively.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative study.
