The lateral joint line opening: a radiographic indicative parameter for high grade varus knees
Abstract Purpose It is usually assumed that the severity of varus osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is correlated with the axis deviation of the limb. Despite this, there is currently no clear radiographic definition to define a so‐called ‘high degree’ varus knee, which is characterized by a pronounce...
