In our study, biplanar medial open-wedge HTO and UKA performed with appropriate surgical technique had no negative effect on patellofemoral joint. In patients under 60 years of age with medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee, both surgical treatments can be performed with appropriate patient selection.
