  abstract = {Proximal tibiofibular synostosis is rare. A proximal tibiofibular synostosis occurred because too long implant screw passed through the lateral cortex in a patient who had undergone a proximal open wedge osteotomy for right knee medial compartment osteoarthritis. The patient had no complaints about synostosis after implant removal. No proximal tibiofibular synostosis due to proximal tibial medial open wedge osteotomy has been reported. We report a new cause of proximal tibiofibular synostosis and a new complication of proximal tibial osteotomy.  },
