Abstract Background Several surgical procedures have been mentioned to treat medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA), as total knee arthroplasty (TKA), unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and high tibial osteotomy (HTO). Objectives The aim of the study is a systematic review & meta analysis conducted to compare the outcomes between UKA & HTO in different types of patients diagnosed as an isolated medial compartment OA who treated with UKA or HTO and statistically compare between their results of pain, range of motion, complications, and i ncidence of revision to TKA using studies published between 2009 to 2019 from any country. Patients and Methods The review will be restricted to Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), clinical trials, and comparative studies, either prospective or retrospective, which studied the outcome of HTO versus UKA of isolated medial compartment osteoarthritis patients, articles published in English &published during 2009 to 2019. Results About 150 articles were found using search keywords. By filtration and screening of the title and exclusion of unrelated articles, about 60 articles were found. By applications of all inclusion and exclusion criteria, only 12 articles were fit to undergo this meta-analysis. Conclusion In conclusion, there were no significant differences in the pain score, knee score, complication rate and revision rate to TKA between HTO and UKA, while the HTO group manifested superior ROM compared to the UKA group. So, HTO may be convenient for patients with high activity requirements. Over time, both groups exhibited increased revision rates with the deteriorated clinical outcomes. Therefore when deciding on a therapeutic plan, the ability to revise these failed choices of treatment to a total knee arthroplasty should be a major consideration. This may assist surgeons in their choice. Based on the findings of current meta-analysis, it appears that the two groups have the same efficiency and safety in the treatment of medial knee OA.

Background: Osteoarthritis of knee is one of the common conditions seen in older individuals and known to affect quality of life considerably. It makes it difficult for individuals with knee osteoarthritis to climb stairs, walk long distances, and stand for long time and squatting. In intractable cases not responding to conservative management surgical management such as proximal fibular Osteotomy (PFO) or high tibial Osteotomy (HTO) is routinely done. We conducted this comparative study to analyse the functional outcome of patients who had undergone HTO and PFO for medial compartment osteoarthritis of knee joint. Aims and Objectives: 1) To analyse the functional outcome of patients who had undergone HTO and PFO for medial compartment osteoarthritis of knee joint. 2) To compare complication rates in both the groups. Materials and Methods: A total of 60 patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis were included in this study on the basis of a predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were randomized to 2 groups. Thirty patients undergoing proximal fibular osteotomy (Group A) and 30 patients undergoing high tibial osteotomy (Group B). The patients were followed up for improvements in functional outcome for 12 months. The statistical analysis was done using SSPS 21.0 software and p value less than 0.05 were taken as statistically significant. Results: Mean time for surgery was less for PFO surgery as compared to HTO and the difference was statistically significant. Moreover mean bleeding amount, drainage volume and time required for full weight bearing was low in PFO group as compared to HTO group and the difference was found to be statistically significant (P<0.05). The mean VAS score at the time of presentation in PFO and HTO groups was found to be 4.9 +/- 1.12 and 4.7 +/- 1.02 respectively. A statistically significant reduction in pain was documented at the time of follow up of 4 weeks in both the groups. The functional outcome and complication rates were comparable in both the groups. Conclusion: Proximal fibular osteotomy is a better option as compared to high tibial osteotomy in terms of mean surgery time, mean bleeding amount, drainage volume and time required for full weight bearing. Functional outcome and improvement in VAS were comparable in both the groups.
