Degenerative medial meniscus posterior root tear (#MMPRT) is a major contributor to knee pain, functional impairment, and progression of osteoarthritis in middle-aged and elderly individuals. Meniscal repair is a mainstream joint-preserving procedure for MMPRTs. High tibial osteotomy (HTO) corrects the varus alignment by shifting the mechanical axis to the lateral compartment, reducing medial compartment load and providing a stable mechanical environment for meniscal healing and cartilage protection. Theoretically, combining the two procedures can achieve synergistic effects of structural repair and alignment correction. This work conducts a retrospective cohort study to systematically compare the early-to-mid-term outcomes of HTO combined with meniscal repair versus isolated meniscal repair for degenerative MMPRTs, to clarify the clinical value of the combined procedure.
