Core Tip	Open wedge high tibial osteotomy with plate and screw fixation is feasible and an appealing operation for surgeons. Overcorrection or under correction of the deformity leads to the persistence of pain. Patellar height changes affect patients with patellofemoral injuries. With the external fixator technique, the residual deformity can be corrected after surgery, and patellar height changes can be prevented. This is a retrospective study that was conducted to compare the accuracy and radiological outcomes of monolateral external fixation and internal fixation for proximal tibial varus deformity correction.
