Posteromedial Opening‐Wedge Tibial Osteotomy for Metaphyseal Varus and Abnormal Posterior Slope Correction in Failed Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions Using a Custom Cutting Guide
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction after graft failure may need associated bone correction to ensure stability of the knee. This article presents a technique of posteromedial opening-wedge osteotomy using a custom cutting guide to correct increased tibial slope and metaphyseal varus deformity after recurrent graft failure. An autograft quadriceps tendon graft was selected for the revision anterior cruciate ligament graft. After exposure with an anteromedial incision a patient specific cutting guide was used to make the high tibial osteotomy. The final fixation of the posteromedial opening was achieved using a low-profile locking plate and a femoral head allograft bone wedge. The tibial tunnel was planned and included in the patient-specific cutting guide. The femoral tunnel was placed using an outside to in manner. Bioabsorbable screws were used as fixation devices.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
