Purpose!#!The purpose of this prospective study was to analyze the impact of obesity on the clinical and radiological outcomes 6 years after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO).!##!Methods!#!A total of 120 prospectively recorded patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis underwent open-wedge HTO between 2008 and 2011. The study cohort was frequently examined over a minimum of a 6-year follow-up. The cohort was divided into three groups according to body mass index (BMI): normal weight patients (BMI < 25 kg/m!##!Results!#!From 120 patients, 85 were followed-up over a 6.7-year period on average (6-11.8 years) after HTO. The mean BMI was 28.6 ± 4.6 kg/m!##!Conclusion!#!In terms of clinical outcome and health-related quality of life, overweight patients may receive a benefit from open-wedge HTO to the same extent as patients with normal weights and show similar complication rates. However, they have inferior preoperative clinical and functional results and mid-term results after open-wedge HTO compared to patients with normal weights.!##!Level of evidence!#!Level III.
