Distal Femoral Osteotomy

Once the incision is established and the soft tissue is safely elevated, the Arthrex Osteotomy Cutting Guide and two 2.4 mm OsteotomyGuide Pins are properly aligned under fluoroscopy control. Specifically design retractors are then used to clear any soft tissue and the osteotomy is precisely performed preserving approximately 1 cm of the medial cortex. The desired amount of angular correction is achieved utilizing the Osteotome Jackor Osteotomy Wedge and the osteotomy site is packed with allograft or autograft bone void filler.
