The purpose of this study is to compare the results of single-stage anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction combined with high tibial osteotomy and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction alone in knees with varus malalignment and anterior cruciate ligament deficiency. Evaluation will be clinically, radiologically and time needed to return to pre injury activity level. Our Hypothesis: Simultaneous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and high tibial osteotomy provides good functional scores, low rate of graft failure and early return to pre injury activity level with minimal added morbidity.
