Abstract

Osteotomies have been initially introduced in the nineteenth century for the treatment of post-traumatic deformities, rickets, and other bowing disorders of the femur. During the 1960s, high tibial osteotomies (HTO) have been used as a treatment option for unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee.
