What is Knee Osteotomy?
Knee osteotomy is a surgical procedure that involves cutting and reshaping bones in the knee to relieve pressure on the joint. It is often recommended for patients with arthritis or misalignment in the knee, where the damage is mostly on one side. By redistributing the weight-bearing load, knee osteotomy helps in delaying the need for a total knee replacement and allows patients to maintain an active lifestyle.
