High Tibial Osteotomy involves reshaping and realignment of the bone so that weight becomes more evenly distributed between the inside and outside of the knee, thereby reducing the workload on the damaged side.
You will probably have to stay in hospital for several days after surgery followed by up to 6 months rehabilitation.
