The high tibial osteotomy(HTO)is a wellestablished and commonly used treatment for younger and active patients with a medial unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee and varus malalignment.The aim of this technique is to shift the load to a functional lateral compartment in order to delay total knee arthroplasty.The dome-shaped HTO was introduced by Blaimont et al.(1975)and later popularized by Maquet(1980).Out of 118 cases,96 cases of overcorrection,13 cases of undercorrection,and 9 cases
