HTO (High Tibial Osteotomy)
HTO is a specialized knee-preserving procedure used to correct improper knee alignment and shift body weight away from the damaged area of the joint. It is commonly recommended for younger and active patients with early-stage arthritis affecting one side of the knee.
By improving alignment, this surgery helps reduce pain, improve walking ability, and delay the need for total knee replacement. It allows patients to maintain an active lifestyle for many years. The procedure is especially beneficial for individuals who wish to continue sports or physically demanding activities. Recovery is supported with physiotherapy and guided rehabilitation. Many patients experience significant pain relief and improved knee stability after surgery. HTO can help preserve the natural knee joint for a longer time. It is considered an effective option before knee replacement becomes necessary.
UKR / Partial Knee Replacement
Partial Knee Replacement is an advanced procedure performed when arthritis or damage is limited to only one compartment of the knee. Instead of replacing the entire knee, only the affected portion is treated while preserving healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments.
This results in a more natural-feeling knee movement, smaller incision, less blood loss, reduced pain, and faster recovery. Patients often return to normal daily activities much sooner compared to total knee replacement. The surgery is ideal for patients with localized knee pain and good ligament support. Because healthy parts of the knee are preserved, movement feels smoother and more natural. Hospital stay is usually shorter, and rehabilitation is quicker. It also offers long-lasting pain relief and better mobility. Many patients are able to resume walking comfortably within a short period.
