Experiences with

Osteotomy

Saw a surgeon two years ago who wanted to put in two half knees, I asked if there was anything else, he said he would refer me to another surgeon that did osteotomy surgery. Yesterday I saw him and was told that I am now cured as there is no swelling, so no requirement for surgery.

He thought I would benefit from high tibial osteotomy, then said he would refer me to a different consultant. I now have a clinic appointment in November, so just over two years or three years including the time waiting for the first clinic.

I’m new here but sadly like a lot of people not new to pain! At the moment my main concern is nerve pain in my left thigh after Spine surgery, take max dose of Gabapentin & it does nothing for it. Part of the thigh is numb, part feels like it’s on fire constantly & then I also get a sudden pain so severe

I had a Distal Femoral Osteotomy almost 4 months ago due to Osteoarthritis in both knees, with a view to another 10 years before needing knee replacements. (I am 50) I wondered if any one else has had this op and what their results have been.

After severe facial bone loss due to a severe reaction to a cosmetic substance; I have been advised by a cosmetic surgeon that osteotomy (BASSO and Lefort) will be the only way to repair the damage. Apparently it is very rare for this surgery to be performed privately in the UK.

After severe facial bone loss due to a severe reaction to a cosmetic substance which has been confirmed by an endocrinologist specialising in bone disorders; I have been advised by a cosmetic surgeon that osteotomy (BASSO and Lefort) will be the only way to repair the damage.

I also just wonder how I am going to cope with the recovery/rehabilitation.It just feels such a lot to have to deal with but I know it has to be done. 16 years ago I underwent a major Osteotomy/Anterior Cruciate repair on my right knee, which was partially successful in that it repaired my knee and straightened

My only options now aged 35 going on 36 are to go down the route of an Osteotomy and then if that fails a knee replacement - something my consultant will not consider under the age of 50. My only options at the moment are a support brace and paracetamol and codiene.

Has anyone had a high tibial osteotomy? I find it difficult to speak to anyone who has even heard of it let alone had one. I am now in the recovery phase from the op but would be very interested to hear from anyone who has had one or is considering one

I get a tibial osteotomy, plus a "reconstruction" of my quad muscle, during which it's cut apart and attached to different parts in a last resort effort to keep the damn thing from sliding apart every few weeks. (It works.

Late 40s my circulation terrible, raynauds and chilblains at times, feet start to hurt, bone erosion and bone fragments, osteotomy performed, digestion means I struggle to eat, the fatigue and weight loss is awful, my joints start to cease up and I have increasing pain, especially between ribs, a loss

I have tried a multitude of pain medications, therapies and strategies since having a femoral osteotomy in 2013, but have found myself at a real low point.

The consultant has suggested osteotomy, has anyone had this surgery, if so I would be very grateful for any information how they got on, and the recovery period. Thanks

Hi, I have had all the usual soft tissue ops such as tendon transfers/lengthening, ligament reconstructions, toes straightened etc etc. my question is has anyone had a first metatarsal osteotomy combined with a calcaneal osteotomy?

Knee also anybody had an knee osteotomy?? Was gonna discuss with my consultant when I go back

The portion of my femur below the osteotomy has a band of firmness under the swelling. I really don't know what is going on. Has anyone had a rotational osteotomy of their femur and had it give them problems nearly a decade after the surgery?
