The aim of this RCT is to show, that in a patient group receiving COLLOSS E combined with TomoFix for medical open wedge high tibial osteotomy, the onset of bone healing is earlier in time, compared to patients receiving TomoFix without COLLOSS E.
The healing effect should be demonstrated by using MRI pictures during the entire FU's in order to demonstrate the differences if COLLOSS E is applied or not.
