Tibial Tubrical Osteotomy
A specialist surgical operation called a tibial tubercle osteotomy is used to treat patellar instability and related knee problems. This minimally invasive procedure involves moving the patellar tendon’s attachment site, the tibial tubercle, in order to better align it. This surgery helps stabilize the patella, lowering pain and improving joint function by modifying the biomechanics of the knee.
Advanced arthroscopic techniques are used by skilled surgeons for accuracy and faster healing. Patients with problems like patellar dislocations or maltracking require tibial tubercle osteotomy. Patients can restore strength and mobility and resume an active, pain-free lifestyle with the help of a customized rehabilitation plan.

Tibial Tubrical Osteotomy FAQ's
The tibial tubercle is the bony bump on the front of the tibia, just below the kneecap. It serves as an attachment point for the patellar tendon. A tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) is a surgical procedure used to treat certain knee conditions, particularly in cases of patellar instability. It involves repositioning or realigning the tibial tubercle, which is the bony prominence at the front of the shinbone (tibia).
During a tibial tubercle osteotomy, the surgeon will cut and reposition the tibial tubercle to improve the patellar alignment and tracking. The repositioning can involve moving the tubercle either medially (toward the inside of the leg) or laterally (toward the outside of the leg), depending on the specific case.
Recovery from a tibial tubercle osteotomy is gradual and may take several months. Weight-bearing and range of motion exercises usually begin soon after surgery. Physical therapy is essential to regain strength and mobility and prevent reinjury.
