Introduction: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and valgus high tibial osteotomy (HTO) are two options for isolated medial femorotibial osteoarthritis in genu varum. In the absence of registries for osteotomies and for arthroplasty in the knee, epidemiological data are hard to obtain in France. We therefore performed a retrospective study, with the aims of: 1) estimating UKA and HTO survival without revision by total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and 2) assessing risk factors for revision according to treatment group.

Methods: In this multicenter retrospective study, 136 patients who underwent mastectomy and external chest wall radiotherapy between 2014 and 2018 were benefited from chest wall lipofilling and silicone implant placement were chosen.
