Abstract

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model to identify the optimal situation wherein double-level osteotomy (DLO) is favored for severe varus knees by analyzing unfavorable outcomes. This study hypothesized that there are the most favorable algorithms and contributing factors for identifying the optimal situation favoring DLO over opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO).
