Background: Medial meniscus extrusion (MME) leads to symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) due to increased mechanical stress. MME increases with weight-bearing, and the difference in MME between non-weight-bearing and weight-bearing status (Delta MME) is a factor that causes greater MME. The lateral wedge insole (LWI) is an ideal approach for decreasing the amount of Delta MME associated with the reduction of medial loading stress in the early stage of knee OA. However, the effect of the LWI for 3 months on the DMME and its response to OA stage have not been elucidated.Objective: To investigate the effects of the LWI for 3 months on MME and the Delta MME in each stage of OA.Methods: Participants were divided into three groups: no intervention with the LWI (control group; n = 9) and intervention with the LWI in early OA (early OA group: Kellgren-Lawrence (K/L) stage = 2, n = 17) and late OA (late OA group: K/L stage > 2, n = 13). MME was evaluated using ultrasound, and the Delta MME was obtained as the difference in MME from non-weight-bearing and weight-bearing conditions. These measurements were performed at two time points: the initial office visit as a baseline and post-3 months.Results: The weight-bearing MME and Delta MME values post-3 months were significantly decreased compared with those at baseline in the early OA group but not in the control or late OA groups.Conclusions: The use of the LWI for 3 months decreased weight-bearing MME and Delta MME values, and its effectiveness was more pronounced in the early stage of knee OA.
