Evaluation of Proximal Fibular Osteotomy in treatment of Medial Compartment Knee Osteoarthritis

Abstract

The administration of older patients with tricompartmental joint inflammation of the knee would preferably be an all out knee arthroplasty. While in more youthful patients with segregated average compartment joint pain of the knee related with a varus deformation, the careful modalities accessible for the executives are restricted to high tibial osteotomy and unicondylar knee substitution. These systems are related with their own arrangement of intricacies just as being related with a more extended postoperative recuperation period and furthermore limitation of exercises or weight bearing, consequently there is a requirement for a technique which is easy to perform, effectively reproducible, gives great useful outcomes and related with a more limited recuperation period and improves the personal satisfaction for the influenced patients. In this situation, (PFO) is a moderately new and novel technique which as indicated by recently distributed and continuous examinations has been demonstrated to be extremely powerful in the administration of average compartment joint pain of the knee Patients and Methods :From January 2018 to june2019, 20 patients who went through proximal fibular osteotomy for average compartment osteoarthritis. Preoperative and postoperative knee society score (KSS) and visual simple scale (VAS) were acquired to survey knee capacities and torment Results: Median knee society score (KSS) show improvement postoperatively from46 to 82 and visual simple scale (VAS) diminished postoperatively from 7 to 1.4. Ends: This investigation shows that proximal fibular osteotomy (PFO), another medical procedure, can adequately diminishes torment and improves knee work in patients with average compartment osteoarthritis.
