The Journal of bone and joint surgery. American volume·2020

This study presents a precise, reproducible technique for complex knee osteotomies using navigation, arthroscopy, and fluoroscopy. The method ensures correct limb alignment in three planes, achieving uncomplicated bone healing.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Surgical Navigation
  • Knee Osteotomy

Background:

  • Complex knee osteotomies present challenges in achieving accurate limb alignment.
  • Intra-articular defects and cartilage status require careful assessment during osteotomy procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel procedure combining navigation, arthroscopy, and fluoroscopic control for complex knee osteotomies.
  • To evaluate the usefulness and precision of this combined technique.

Main Methods:

  • A surgical technique integrating navigation, arthroscopy, and fluoroscopic guidance was employed.
  • Limb axis was meticulously corrected in three spatial planes.
  • Simultaneous arthroscopic evaluation and correction of intra-articular defects were performed.

Main Results:

  • Uncomplicated consolidation of the osteotomy was achieved.
  • Correct limb axis in all three spatial planes was successfully obtained.
  • The technique demonstrated precision and reproducibility without requiring computer-assisted navigation.

Conclusions:

  • The described technique is precise, reproducible, and effective for complex knee osteotomies.
  • Simultaneous arthroscopy allows for concurrent correction of intra-articular issues and cartilage assessment.
  • This approach offers a valuable alternative for complex knee osteotomies, ensuring accurate alignment and functional outcomes.
