IC 09-2026-Tools and Techniques of Osteotomies Around the Knee: A Practical How-To Guide

This ICL is a case-based approach to understanding the basic techniques and tools used to do osteotomies around the knee joint. Osteotomies are more and more used to augment joint restorative procedures from simple angular corrections to reduction in contact forces and major alignment correction in the patellofemorla and tibiofemoral joint. This course will address the more common high tibial osteotomy, as well as distal femorla osteotomies, tibial tubercle osteotomies and slope correcting osteotomies around the knee. It will be structured from simple to complex deformity correction based upon increasingly difficult case examples. Audience participation is encouraged and questions will be posed from the podium. This course will touch on indications and outcomes but is predominantly focused on technical aspects, different approaches and tools and intra-operative and management tools and tricks. There will be a brief 5-7 min introductory lecture for every major osteotomy type followed by a simple case example of the respective osteotomy. Then we will start showing simple to complex cases and discuss treatment approaches, techniques, issues of concern and management aspects after the surgery, including rehab and pain management aspects.
