Patients &lt;16 or &gt;80 years and bilateral cases within &lt;6 months were excluded. Reoperations and serious complications within 90 days were identified using International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD\u201010) and Office of Population Censuses and Surveys Classification of Surgical Operations and Procedures, 4th Revision (OPCS\u20104) codes. The primary outcome was reoperation rate at 90 days and 1 year; secondary outcomes were serious medical complications within 90 days, including pulmonary embolism (PE), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), acute kidney injury (AKI), urinary tract infection (UTI) and neurovascular injury. Logistic regression was done to estimate odds for serious complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 24,947 osteotomies (18,871 HTO, 4490 DFO, 1586 doubles; 23,371 patients) were included (mean age: 41 years; 62% male; Charlson index 0: 80.42%). Within 90 days, 2.27% (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.08\u20132.47) underwent a reoperation, including 1.00% (95% CI 0.88\u20131.13) for infection. At 1 year, 7.26% (95% CI 6.93\u20137.61) of patients underwent at least one reoperation, including 2.11% for infection (95% CI 1.92\u20132.30,\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009486); at 1 year, 0.38% (95% CI 0.31\u20130.47) had undergone arthroplasty. Within 90 days, 1.95% (95% CI 1.78\u22122.13) experienced at least one adverse event. Specific serious complication rates included PE 0.39% (95% CI 0.32\u20130.47), MI 0.029% (95% CI 0.01\u20130.05), stroke 0.029% (95% CI 0.01\u20130.05) and AKI 0.35% (95% CI 0.28\u20130.43).
