Abstract

In the past, many high tibial osteotomies were done to relieve symptoms of osteoarthritis. These osteotomies have largely been replaced by total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

This paper presents the long-term results of 270 osteotomies followed up for 10 years and discusses the complications involved in subsequent conversion to TKA.

The abstracts were prepared by Professor M. B. E. Sweet. Correspondence should be addressed to him at The Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Medical School, University of Witwatersrand, 7 York Road, Parktown, Johannesburg, 2193 South Africa
