Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses the rationale behind tibial osteotomy and the complications associated with it. They emphasize the importance of adjusting the knee in three planes - coronal, sagittal, and rotational - and the potential for patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) to assist with this. The speaker also highlights the benefits of osteotomy, such as preserving cruciate ligaments and improving cartilage operations, and how it can help with ACL and PCL injuries. They compare osteotomy to knee arthroplasty and argue that it is a joint-preserving operation that delays the need for arthroplasty. The speaker discusses the use of PSI in osteotomy procedures, sharing examples of virtual osteotomies and the potential for better correction and safer outcomes. They also touch on complications and the importance of surgical education and technology in reducing them. Overall, the video focuses on the benefits and challenges of tibial osteotomy and the potential role of PSI in improving outcomes.
