High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a common and widely accepted procedure in orthopaedic surgery. In the literature, we find descriptions of the technique dating back to the 50s, with Jackson (Jackson, 1958). However, it was not until the 70s, with the publications of Conventry (Coventry, 1969 and 1973) and Insall (Insall, 1975), that proximal tibial osteotomy became common practice as a treatment option for medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee usually associated to varus deformity. At that time, closing wedge osteotomies were performed, despite the greater technical difficulty and risks involved, as there were no fixation materials available that could enable opening wedge osteotomy. Only after the development of medial wedge plate fixation that opening wedge osteotomy became applicable (Puddu, 2004).
The goals of HTO are:
1. To reduce knee pain by transferring weight-bearing loads to the relatively unaffected compartment;
2. To increase the life span of the knee joint, by slowing or stopping the destruction of the medial joint compartment. This could delay the need of a joint replacement.
1) The document discusses the planning of a high tibial osteotomy (HTO) procedure, including a brief history of osteotomies, knee axis anatomy, indications for HTO, preoperative planning considerations, and techniques for planning correction angles and wedge sizes.
2) Key factors in planning include determining the nature and location of deformity, ideal candidates for HTO vs other procedures, and calculating the needed correction angle based on methods like the Fujisawa scale.
3) Precise planning is important for procedures like open vs closed wedge osteotomy and correcting any concomitant deformities in the sagittal or transverse planes.
The document discusses a minimally invasive technique called percutaneous calcaneoplasty for treating displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures as an alternative to open reduction internal fixation. The technique involves closed reduction of fracture fragments under fluoroscopy followed by stabilization with balloon-assisted augmentation of bone cement or calcium phosphate. A retrospective study of 11 patients treated with this method found excellent or good clinical outcomes in 10 patients with union in 2-3 months and no wound complications. The study concludes percutaneous calcaneoplasty can provide stable reduction without plating and allow for early function recovery and short hospital stays.
Otto Pelvis, also known as primary protrusio acetabuli, was first described by German pathologist Otto in 1824. It is characterized by medial protrusion of the acetabulum. There are two types: primary, which remains a diagnosis of exclusion, and secondary. Clinical features include a marked female predilection and bilateral involvement. Radiographs can identify protrusio using Kohler's line or central edge angle. Management depends on age and degeneration, ranging from valgus osteotomy in younger patients to total hip arthroplasty with grafting in older patients. Surgical techniques aim to restore the hip center through lateralization and reconstruction of bone defects.
This document discusses the dynamic hip screw (DHS), used to treat intertrochanteric hip fractures. The DHS provides controlled collapse and dynamic action to reduce complications like screw cut-out. Key steps of the procedure include closed reduction of the fracture, guide pin and plate insertion at 135 degrees, and measuring screw length. Factors like tip-apex distance and screw position are important to prevent complications. The DHS works by creating compression as the lag screw collapses into the barrel post-operatively.
Current Concepts in High Tibial osteotomy and Unicondylar knee replacementPaudel Sushil
This document discusses current concepts in unicondylar knee arthroplasty and high tibial osteotomy for the management of unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee. It provides an overview of the procedures, including types of osteotomies for high tibial osteotomy, indications and contraindications for each procedure, long-term results, and risks of converting between the two procedures. The document also reviews principles and considerations for each technique as well as selected implant designs for unicondylar knee arthroplasty.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical procedure to replace the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve pain from arthritis. The document discusses the relevant anatomy of the knee joint, biomechanics, indications and contraindications for TKA, and key concepts in knee replacement surgery such as femoral rollback and constraint.
Patella dislocation is a common problem in the young. Recurrence of dislocation can be significant problem causing pain and discomfort. The assessment and guidelines towards non-surgical and surgical treatment options are discussed here.
The document discusses total knee replacement (TKR) and defining its failure. An ideal TKR has properly aligned components in the correct anatomical planes with balanced soft tissues. Failure is defined as requiring revision surgery, with the main causes being aseptic loosening, deep infection, and pain. Joint registries provide data on patient characteristics, implants, and surgical techniques to evaluate safety and cost-effectiveness of TKR. Common indications for revision include aseptic loosening, infection, pain, and patellofemoral issues.
Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty has evolved since the 19th century with various prosthetic designs introduced over time. Prosthetic design considerations include femoral rollback, modularity, constraint, and whether to retain or sacrifice the cruciate ligaments. Radiographs are important for preoperative planning to assess alignment and bone defects. Surgical goals include restoring mechanical alignment, joint line, balanced soft tissues, and normal patellofemoral tracking. Key steps include femoral and tibial cuts, balancing the knee in flexion and extension, and addressing any flexion contractures or deformities. Complications can include nerve palsies, vascular issues, stiffness, infections, and loosening. With careful patient selection, planning and technique, total knee
This document discusses protrusio acetabuli, a hip joint deformity where the medial wall of the acetabulum invades into the pelvic cavity. It can be caused by primary or secondary factors like infections, tumors, inflammation, trauma or genetics. The first case was described in 1824. Diagnosis involves clinical exams and radiological imaging. Treatment depends on the patient's age and bone maturity, and may include surgical closure of growth plates in children, bone grafting in adolescents, or total hip arthroplasty in older adults. Placement of the hip prosthesis component is important to avoid loosening.
Idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip is a rare condition characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage in the hip of unknown cause, mainly affecting adolescent females. It presents with insidious hip, thigh, or knee pain and radiographic evidence of joint space narrowing. While the etiology is unknown, theories include abnormal cartilage metabolism triggered by an environmental event, abnormal intra-articular pressure, or mechanical insult to the cartilage. Treatment focuses on NSAIDs, protected weight bearing, range of motion exercises, and in some cases surgery such as distraction arthroplasty or arthroplasty.
Osteotomies around the hip are surgical procedures used to correct biomechanical alignment and load transmission across the hip joint. They involve removing a portion of bone. The goals are to improve femoral head coverage, containment, motion, relieve pain, and correct leg length discrepancies. Different types of osteotomies target the proximal femur or pelvis. Proximal femoral osteotomies are classified based on anatomical location and degree of displacement. Pelvic osteotomies aim to redirect the acetabulum and include Salter, Sutherland, Steel/Tonnis, and Ganz/Bernese procedures. Key considerations for each procedure include indications, approach, osteotomy cuts made, advantages/disadv
Knee replacement in a recurvatum deformity is one of the most challenging scenarios. This uncommon surgery is based on a few simple principles which are explained in this ppt. Hyperextension can be a part of neurological disorder, primary ligament laxity, mal-alignment around the joint, post traumatic conditions etc. a careful dissection and minimal bone cuts are essential points in this surgery. Contrary to regular principle we end up stuffing the joint to balance the posterior capsular hammock.
Hope this ppt helps you with your surgery planning.
1. The document discusses various types of osteotomies performed around the hip joint to correct deformities and improve biomechanics. It describes pelvic osteotomies like Pemberton, Salter, and Ganz osteotomies which reorient the acetabulum.
2. Femoral osteotomies discussed include varus, valgus, and rotational osteotomies. Varus osteotomies elevate the greater trochanter medially to improve joint congruity. Valgus, or abduction osteotomies, tilt the distal fragment away from the midline to increase femoral neck angle.

This document summarizes a presentation on medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy. Key points include:
1) Preoperative planning is critical to determine the appropriate correction and wedge size.
2) Wedge geometry is complex, as the correction depends on both coronal and sagittal plane alignment.
3) Intraoperative assessment of alignment is challenging, and while the bovie cord provides a reasonable estimate, alternatives like radiolucent grids may improve accuracy by reducing parallax error.
This document outlines a presentation on Blount's disease by Dr. Enejo Joseph. It begins with an introduction defining Blount's disease as a developmental disorder causing bowleg deformity. It then covers the epidemiology, risk factors, classification, clinical features, investigations, and treatment options. Treatment involves bracing for mild cases and corrective osteotomies for more severe cases. Prognosis is generally good if treated early, though recurrence is a risk, especially in adolescent forms of the disease.
Proximal fibular osteotomy - What is the evidence?Dr Saseendar MD
Proximal fibular osteotomy has been proposed as a simple and inexpensive alternative to high-tibial osteotomy and unicondylar knee arthroplasty and may be useful for low-income populations that cannot afford expensive treatment methods. However, there is no consensus existing regarding the mechanism by which it acts nor the outcome of this procedure. This study was performed to analyze the available evidence on the benefits of proximal fibular osteotomy and to understand the possible mechanisms in play. There are various mechanisms that are proposed to individually or collectively contribute to the outcomes of this procedure, and include the theory of non-uniform settlement, the too-many cortices theory, slippage phenomenon, the concept of competition of muscles, dynamic fibular distalization theory and ground reaction vector readjustment theory. The mechanisms have been discussed and future directions in research have been proposed. The current literature, which mostly consists of case series, suggests the usefulness of the procedure in decreasing varus deformity as well as improving symptoms in medial osteoarthritis. However, large randomised controlled trials with long-term follow-up are required to establish the benefits of this procedure over other established treatment methods.
The quadriceps angle (Q-angle) is formed between the quadriceps muscles and the patella tendon and provides information about leg alignment. A normal Q-angle falls between 12-20 degrees, with males usually on the lower end and females higher due to wider pelvises. Excessive Q-angles can lead to overpronation and changes in quadriceps pull that may cause patella tracking issues. Pain in knee osteoarthritis arises from damage to articular structures like cartilage and subchondral bone as well as periarticular tissues, with nociceptors activating pain fibers. Cartilage degeneration leads to inflammation and sensitization of pain pathways in the peripheral and central nervous systems.
Anterior knee pain is one of the most common conditions affecting active young patients. It has many potential causes including patellofemoral imbalance, lower limb structural abnormalities, and overuse. A thorough history focused on pain location and aggravating/relieving factors is important to identify the underlying cause. Physical examination evaluates alignment, patellar tracking, and identifies tenderness. Imaging like x-rays and MRI may help diagnose conditions like patellar tendinopathy, Osgood Schlatter disease, or cartilage lesions. Treatment is usually initially conservative with physical therapy and modifications, while surgery is considered for issues like instability or advanced arthritis. A holistic approach considering multiple factors is important for managing anterior knee pain.
This document summarizes a study on outcomes of simultaneous high tibial osteotomy (HTO) and ACL reconstruction. The study included 25 patients with chronic ACL deficiency and medial compartment osteoarthritis with varus deformity who underwent combined HTO and ACLR. Results at 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year follow-up showed improved average Lysholm and knee society scores and average correction of tibial angle. Complications included 1 infection, 1 persistent pain case, and 1 hinge fracture extension of osteotomy. None required total knee replacement. The conclusion is that one-stage medial open wedge HTO with ACLR appears to be a safe and effective procedure for treating varus osteoarthritis with anterior instability.

This document summarizes osteoarthritis (OA), including its definition, epidemiology, risk factors, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment guidelines. OA is the most common form of arthritis characterized by cartilage degeneration. Risk factors include age, obesity, injury and activity levels. All joint structures are affected, resulting in symptoms like pain and stiffness. Treatment involves lifestyle changes, medications, injections, and surgeries like osteotomy or arthroplasty depending on the severity and location of OA.
This document provides guidance on preoperative planning and evaluation for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It discusses assessing patient expectations and psychological factors, identifying radiographic views needed, evaluating alignment and deformities, differentiating knee pain sources, selecting the appropriate prosthesis based on factors like disease severity and deformity, and the surgeon's goals of recreating alignment, balancing soft tissues, and normal knee movement. Key considerations include patient factors like age, activity level, and comorbidities that may influence outcomes, and surgical factors like constraint level needed based on ligament integrity and deformity.

BIOMECHANICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN DISTRACTION OSTEOGENESIS.pptxDr. Genoey George
The document discusses various biomechanical considerations for distraction osteogenesis of the mandible. It covers factors like device placement and orientation, the effects of biological and mechanical forces, and how intermaxillary elastics can be used during active distraction. It also addresses complications that can arise from device placement like developing anterior or posterior open bites if the vector is not parallel to the occlusal plane. Precise planning of device orientation and direction of distraction is important to achieve the desired skeletal changes and occlusal outcome.
Femoral neck fractures most commonly occur in elderly patients due to osteoporosis and osteopenia. Displaced fractures have higher rates of complications like nonunion and osteonecrosis compared to non-displaced fractures. Treatment depends on fracture displacement and patient factors, ranging from non-surgical management of non-displaced fractures to internal fixation, hemiarthroplasty, or total hip arthroplasty for displaced fractures. Large randomized controlled trials have shown that arthroplasty results in better functional outcomes and fewer reoperations compared to internal fixation for displaced fractures in healthy elderly patients.
This document discusses femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), a condition where the femoral head and acetabulum abnormally contact each other, from the perspective of a sports physiotherapist. It describes the two main types of FAI - cam impingement caused by a nonspherical femoral head, and pincer impingement caused by excessive acetabular coverage. Most cases involve a mix of both. Conservative physiotherapy management focuses on reducing inflammation, strengthening muscles, and gentle stretching. Surgical intervention like arthroscopy may be considered if conservative treatment fails to allow athletes to return to play.
This study examined whether hip involvement negatively impacts radiographic outcomes after lumbar pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) in ankylosing spondylitis patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis. 44 patients underwent one-level lumbar PSO and were divided into two groups based on their hip involvement scores. Both groups had similar corrections of local kyphosis, but the group with hip involvement had significantly larger sagittal vertical axis and pelvic tilt postoperatively, indicating hip involvement can negatively impact radiographic outcomes after lumbar PSO. Additional osteotomies may be needed for patients with hip involvement to achieve satisfactory correction.

Etiologies of Bipolar disorders. Power Point Presentation ptxseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
Bipolar disorder, formerly known as manic-depressive illness, is a complex psychiatric condition characterized by extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). The etiology of bipolar disorder involves a combination of genetic, biological, and environmental factors. Here's a breakdown of these etiologies:
Genetic Factors:
Family History: Bipolar disorder tends to run in families, suggesting a genetic component. Studies indicate that having a close relative with bipolar disorder increases the risk.
Genetic Studies: Research has identified specific genetic variations associated with bipolar disorder. These include genes involved in neurotransmitter signaling, ion channel function, and circadian rhythms.
Neurobiological Factors:
Neurotransmitter Imbalance: Imbalances in neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine are implicated in bipolar disorder. For example, elevated dopamine levels during manic episodes and decreased levels during depressive episodes.
Neuroendocrine Factors: Dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and abnormal cortisol levels have been observed in individuals with bipolar disorder.
Neuroanatomical Factors:
Brain Structure and Function: Structural and functional abnormalities in certain brain regions are linked to bipolar disorder. These include the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus, which are involved in emotional regulation and cognition.
Environmental Factors:
Stress: Stressful life events, such as trauma, loss, or significant life changes, can trigger or exacerbate episodes of bipolar disorder.
Substance Abuse: Substance use, particularly stimulants or drugs that affect neurotransmitter systems, can precipitate manic episodes or worsen the course of the disorder.
Developmental Factors:
Early Life Experiences: Adverse childhood experiences, including abuse, neglect, or chronic stress, may increase susceptibility to developing bipolar disorder later in life.
Trajectories: Some individuals may have a prodromal phase marked by subthreshold symptoms or other behavioral indicators before full-blown episodes manifest.

3. Medial osteoarthritis of the knee
• Knee - commonest site of osteoarthritis (OA)
• Significant research & advances in treatment of medial OA
• Surgical options for treatment
• High Tibial Osteotomy
• UKA
• TKA
9. Methodology
• Articles in English
• Articles which combined PFO with other surgical procedures (eg. HTO,
UKA) were excluded
• Bibliography of the articles were also searched
• Total ten articles that assessed clinical or biomechanical effects of PFO in
medial OA
• Outcomes and mechanisms proposed were studied
• Systematic review could not be done (few long-term studies)
11. Biomechanics of the varus knee
• Femur
• Functional decrease in femoral neck-shaft valgus
• Lateral bowing of the femoral shaft
• Reduction in the condylar shaft angle
• Mechanical axis shifts medially

analysis of alignment of the lower extremities--initiation and progression of varus-type knee
osteoarthritis. Osteoarthr Cartil 2015;23(2):217-23.
12. Biomechanics of the varus knee
• Tibia
• Tibial plateau compression leads to steeping of medial plateau in early OA
• Bowing of tibia occurs later
• Mechanical axis shifts medially

analysis of alignment of the lower extremities--initiation and progression of varus-type knee
osteoarthritis. Osteoarthr Cartil 2015;23(2):217-23.
13. Biomechanics of the varus knee
• Load-bearing in proximal tibia happens primarily in trabeculae rather than the peripheral cortex

14. Origin of Proximal Fibular Osteotomy
• Yazdi et al (2014)
• Survey of joint reaction forces in cadaver knees after fibulectomy (fibula cuff resection for nonunion tibia, fibular tumor
resection, fibula graft harvest)
• Found decrease in the medial compartment pressure and
• Increase in the lateral compartment pressure
• Suggested that performing fibulectomy along with tibial osteotomies can have protective effect

on contact pressure of the knee: a cadaveric study. Eur J Orthop Surg Traumatol 2014;24(7):1285-89.
15. Origin of Proximal Fibular Osteotomy
• Yang et al (2015)
• Published results of retrospective series of PFO surgeries performed since 1996
• Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Hebei, China
• Zhang, the senior surgeon attributes the idea to one of his students from a rural
hospital in China

Osteotomy to Treat Medial Compartment Knee Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Study. Orthopedics 2015;38(12):e1110-4.
16. Rationale behind PFO
1. Concept of nonuniform settlement
2. Too many cortices theory
3. Slippage phenomenon
4. Concept of competition of muscles
5. Dynamic fibular distalisation theory
18. Concept of nonuniform settlement
• Bone density of fibula higher than medial tibial plateau
• Osteoporosis leads to settlement
• However, fibular support does not allow lateral tibial plateau to settle
• Resultant varus deformity
Dong T, Chen W, Zhang F, Yin B, Tian Y, Zhang Y. Radiographic measures of settlement
phenomenon in patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis. Clin Rheumatol
2016;35(6):1573-78.
19. A - Normal knee
medial tibial load-bearing capacity =
cumulative lateral load-bearing capacity (tibial+fibular)
B – osteoporotic knee
medial tibial load-bearing capacity <
cumulative lateral load-bearing capacity (tibial+fibular)
20. Settlement value
• Height difference between highest point of lateral
tibial condyle and the lowest point of medial tibial
condyle
Dong T, Chen W, Zhang F, Yin B, Tian Y, Zhang Y. Radiographic measures of
settlement phenomenon in patients with medial compartment knee
osteoarthritis. Clin Rheumatol 2016;35(6):1573-78.
21. Settlement value
• positively related to knee varus
• positively related to Kellgren Lawrence grading of OA of the knee
22. • PFO - support of fibula is removed
• Lateral side “settles” down – Uniform settlement
C – Post PFO knee
medial tibial load-bearing capacity =
lateral load-bearing capacity (tibial + fibular)
B – osteoporotic knee
medial tibial load-bearing capacity <
cumulative lateral load-bearing capacity (tibial + fibular)
• Correction of deformity
• Relief in symptoms
23. Too many cortices theory
• Medial condyle - supported by one cortex
• Lateral condyle - supported by one tibial
cortex and two fibular cortices
• Leads to differential loading when medial
side collapses in a varus deformed knee
with intact fibula
24. Slippage phenomenon
• In varus knee, femur slides to the medial side - coronal tibiofemoral
subluxation or slippage phenomenon
• Maintains a high Knee Adduction Moment (KAM)
• Progression of varus deformity and pain
25. Concept of competition of muscles
• Uniform settlement after PFO takes time
• Can explain slow improvement in symptoms
• What is the reason for early symptomatic relief?
• Immediate improvement in HKA angle after high fibular osteotomy
• A rectified non-uniform settlement wouldn't be expected to be
evident immediately after a fibula resection
26. Concept of competition of muscles
• Nie et al analysed the activity of muscles after high fibular osteotomy
• increased in the long head of biceps femoris
• decreased in the peroneus longus
Nie Y, Huang ZY, Xu B, Shen B, Kraus VB, Pei FX. Evidence and Mechanism by which Upper
Partial Fibulectomy Improves Knee Biomechanics and Decreases Knee Pain of Osteoarthritis. J
Orthop Res 2018
27. Concept of competition of muscles
• Competition of muscles between Biceps femoris & Peroneus after
high fibular osteotomy created a vectior in the direction of valgus
28. Dynamic fibular distalisation theory
• Qin et al - 67 PFOs
• Clinical improvement proportional
• to distalisation of fibula and
• inclination angle of the proximal tibiofibular joint
• Compressive forces from distal fibula not transmitted to proximal fibula

fibular osteotomy for treatment of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis: A prospective study. J Int Med
Res 2018;46(8):3114-23.
29. Dynamic fibular distalisation theory
• Muscles attached to proximal fibula (soleus, peroneus longus) pulled
fibular head in the distal direction - tensile force transmitted to LFC
through LCL
• Greater the distal displacement of the fibular head, better the correction
of varus deformity & the more significant the improvement in symptoms

osteotomy for treatment of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis: A prospective study. J Int Med Res
2018;46(8):3114-23.
30. More outcomes
• Huang et al – Valgus of 5-7 degrees at three months after the operation
• Most studies –
• increased valgus of knee
• improvement in medial joint space Radiographs at one year
• Wang et al24 - 46 patients with PFO, follow up of 12 months
• Significant decrease in VAS
• Improvement of knee and function subscores of American Knee Society Score
• Increase in medial joint space

Aspect of the Fibula During Walking: A Case Report. JBJS Case Connect 2017;7(3):e43.
31. Prognostic factors for better outcome
• Liu et al - 84 patients (111 knees)
• Patients with near-normal HKA Angle
(PFO can only partially correct varus deformity of tibial plateau)
• Patients with higher settlement value
(higher the settlement value, higher effect of lateral fibula support)

35. Surgical Procedure
• Resect a segment of the fibula
• 6-10 cm from the fibular head
• Nie et al – b/w extensor digitorum longus & peroneus longus/ peroneus
brevis
• Yang, Liu – b/w peronei & soleus
36. Surgical Procedure
• Influenced by common peroneal nerve and its branches
• Lower half of fibula – best
• Why proximal fibula, why not distal fibula?
• Incision in proximal half
• should be posterior to the coronal plane
• avoids peroneal nerve and its branches (lie in front of the coronal plane)

incidence of peroneal nerve palsy in proximal tibial osteotomy. J Surg Tech Case Rep 2010;2(1):17-19.
37. Complications
• Peroneal Nerve palsy
• Yang et al
• 1.8% common peroneal nerve(CPN)
• 1.8% superficial peroneal nerve palsy which recovered completely between 3 and
10 months
• 14.5% had weakness which returned to normal within 4 weeks
