High Tibial Osteotomy: How to Get it Right and Avoid Complications (Case based lecture) (1/4)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker discusses the use of patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) in osteotomy surgeries. PSI is a term used to describe digital templating, patient-specific jigs, potential patient-specific implants, and efficiency in procedural workflow. The speaker emphasizes the goal of making osteotomies more accessible to average orthopedic surgeons, while acknowledging that there will always be complex cases requiring mastery. They discuss the biomechanical rationale behind osteotomy and the importance of considering the sagittal, rotational, and ligamentous planes in addition to the coronal plane. The speaker also mentions a landmark paper on ACL slope and the advantages of preserving the cruciates through osteotomy. They highlight how PSI technology can aid in accurate correction, decrease fluoroscopy time, and improve efficiency. The speaker shares case examples and addresses complications and their management. They conclude by emphasizing that osteotomy is a sound surgical option and that PSI can help minimize complications and optimize outcomes. No credits are granted in the video.
