Abstract
Medial closing-wedge distal femoral osteotomy (MCWDFO) was used to treat valgus knee malalignment combined with lateral compartment disease. The clinical outcome of the osteotomy depends on the accurate correction of valgus malalignment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a MCWDFO assisted by three-dimensional (3D)-printed cutting guides and locking guides.Keywords
