An Osteotomy is an operation that changes the alignment of the leg. This can be done for several reasons, though the most common is to take pressure of a damaged, or arthritic, part of the knee in order to relieve pain and restore function without resorting to a knee replacement.. It is commonly performed in young, active patients who are developing arthritis in a localized part of the knee and wish to remain active. It is used to relieve pain and to slow the progression of the arthritis, as well as allow for the resumption of all activities without the restrictions imposed by a knee replacement. Occasionally an osteotomy is used to treat complex knee instability and in association with cartilage repair or regeneration techniques.
