  Author(s): Anshul Meena*, Manish Bajaj and Gaurav Jain
  
  Background: Genu valgum deformity significantly impacts lower limb biomechanics and function. Dome osteotomy represents an effective corrective technique, but the optimal fixation method remains debated. This study compares outcomes of K-wire versus plate osteosynthesis for dome osteotomy fixation. Methods: Prospective cohort study of 18 patients (22 knees) with symptomatic genu valgum undergoing femoral supracondylar dome osteotomy. Fixation was with either 4 K-wires (2 medial, 2 lateral; n=10 knees) or 3.5 mm locking compression plate (n=12 knees). K-wires were preferentially used in patients with comorbidities (renal rickets, hypophosphatemic rickets) to reduce operative time and blood loss. Preoperative and postoperative assessments included full-length scanograms, radiological analysis, and Bostman functional scores at 6 months follow-u.. Read More»
