About Corrective Osteotomy Knee

When a leg is crooked or not aligned correctly from a deformity, the surgeons at the Orthopaedic Center can realign the leg above the knee or just below the knee to make it straight to relieve pain and attempt to preserve cartilage. This can help in very young active patients or those who are not good candidates for knee replacement yet.
