Abstract
High tibial osteotomy is a dynamic operation, used as an effective procedure in both joint preservation and knee stability. Applications and indications are expanding, with good results in the treatment of malalignment associated with arthrosis, knee instability, meniscus deficiency or transplants, and/or cartilage restoration. Appropriate patient selection and preoperative planning are critical to achieving good outcomes after surgery. Coronal and sagittal plane corrections made through the proximal tibia can effectively alter joint mechanics creating a more favorable environment for cartilage, meniscus, and ligamentous structures about the knee. Advancing techniques and technologies have allowed for more precise planning and execution of osteotomies.
