The overall goal of this project is to determine whether anatomic realignment of the tibiofemoral joint in those with moderate genu varus deformity allows for changes in muscle strength, knee joint laxity, knee joint instability and proprioception compatible with halting the progression of knee osteoarthritis. In addition, measurements were made of ambulation level, cognitive status, passive hip and knee extension range of motion (ROM), and the angle of genu varus or genu valgus, if appropriate. |
