Abstract

We performed an original double osteotomy technique in 10 osteoarthritis knee and one osteonecrosis knee, in which transverse osteotomy from the medial aspect of the proximal tibia to the proximal tibiofibulal joint were added to tibial condyle valgus osteotomy and fixed with an open wedge osteotomy plate. All cases had good results and could return to their jobs. Adequate adaptation of both compartments of the knee and alignment of the lower limb were achieved independently with this technique.
