Patellar Alignment Surgery in Bangalore


Patellar Alignment Surgery in Bangalore

The surgical procedure performed to re-align the kneecap (patella) is called tibial tubercle transfer, also termed bony realignment or osteotomy.

This serves as a treatment option for patellofemoral instability and other disorders such as arthritis and cartilaginous defects affecting the joint between the kneecap and femur.

Your surgeon will move a small portion of the bone that held the patellar tendon to a position on the tibia to ensure proper tracking of the kneecap while bending the knee.
