Abstract
High Tibia Osteotomy (HTO) is an operation that requires full lower limb alignment assessment to plan bone cuts. This study is trying to introduce a pre HTO operative radiographic analysis method to improve measurement of the whole lower limb using anatomical and mechanical axes and the angles between them. The aim is to improve the reproducibility of the measurements, and not personalize them. Using the introduced method, the lower limb radiographic alignments of a 25 year old female patient with a varus knee deformity were analyzed pre and post operation using imaging from hip to ankle.
