A HTO was not determinant for having a worse outcome at the TKR, even when there were radiographic differences. The coronal alignment with valgus deformity pre-TKR after a HTO showed better functional results than in the case of varus deformity. Level of evidence III.

In our opinion, best management for extra-articular deformities associated to osteoarthritis is to carry out a knee replacement without corrective osteotomy on condition that planification allow to us avoid ligaments insertions, using an extensive soft-tissue balancing in conjunction with a minimally constrained TKA.
