This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This study looked at 20 people with knee arthritis who had a surgery called high tibial osteotomy (HTO) to realign their knee. The goal was to see how the surgery changed ankle pain and ankle joint alignment. Researchers measured pain and bone angles before and after surgery. The study is complete, but because it is small and observational, it only helps us understand possible links, not prove a treatment works.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
high tibial osteotomy (surgical procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors understand how knee surgery affects the ankle, potentially improving surgical planning and reducing ankle pain after knee realignment.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, completed study with only 20 participants. It does not test a new treatment, so results may not apply to everyone and cannot confirm any benefits.
