Distal Femoral Osteotomy Animation

Dr. S. Robert Rozbruch of the Limb Lengthening and Complex Reconstruction Service at HSS shows how he performs a distal femoral osteotomy to correct knock-knee deformity.

[@serenaparker4018]

I had this done to both my legs. My left was a breeze my right well that ended up being a big surgery. As I also tore my ACL so my dr and his partner decided to do both surgeries on my right knee. During surgery the inner side of my knee shattered they had to rebuild it. It took a long time for me to heal. But I am truly happy to have two straight legs again.

I just had this surgery a couple of weeks ago. It is painful and you cant walk on it of course and have to stay off of it for 6 weeks. But it's worth it. My leg is straighter than before and this procedure will limit the risk of tearing your ACL or meniscus, due to the added pressure of having knocked knees has on your legs.

How much does it cost?

[@lindsayyoung3896]

@@justinbowman4591 since I have insurance, it only cost me about 2,200 dollars out of pocket to have the procedure done. In turn, the total bill that was sent to the insurance agency was around 100,000 dollars. But I also had to stay over night and needed to repair my ACL.

How long did it take for u to walk on and for it to heal

[@lindsayyoung3896]

@@user-zd4ex1ew6o This type of surgery takes about 12 weeks to put full weight on it. You have to be on crutches up until 8 weeks and than you start to slowly put weight on it until 12 weeks when you don’t need the crutches no more. But it depends on the person as well. If your not healthy than it will take longer for it to heal. Also the whole bone itself takes at minimum 6 months to heal properly. So you can’t do high intensive activities for a little while. But also if you’re healthy the bone will heal faster.

Hi Caroline, I haven't been diagnosed but my legs definitel ycause me a lot of issues and I'm trying to get diagnosed by the NHS but they are just ignoring me. Iam convined I have a femoral rotation (turning inwards) and an external tibial torsion! how did your surgery go? I currently can't really do any lower body exercises, (I only do yoga for my lower body but I still can't do everything and any amount of stretching doesn't really seem to improve the issue).

[@carolinedavis1730]

Both surgeries went pretty well and are doing great! I had mine about five years ago. I’m from the U.S., so I can’t give any tips on how to get diagnosed over in the UK. But I would def request an MRI.

[@raefituk918]

Caroline Davis thanks so much for the reply! They’re honestly awful in the UK I basically had to beg just for an MRI of my hips but they really didn’t want to give me one! They tried giving me exercises with one physiotherapist (as they said I needed strengthening) but it just made everything worse. The second physio (which even took nearly a year to get referred to) give me exercises for internal rotation which just caused more pain and they said my calves were just tight 👀. I’ve recently come off a yoga teacher training and nearly been going to the gym for 4 years 😂 I think if something was just tight I would know how to fix it lol! I’m moving country soon so I will definitely put that forward and I really hope I can get one of my full leg! As it’s so frustrating. The current sports scientist I am under just ignored me when I said the bones could be twisted and they said try the insoles and night time brace. 😅 any exercise on one leg for example a warrior 3 or dancers pose on my left leg I can barely bend forward. Thanks for the advice! I’m glad you’re doing well after the surgeries 🙌.

Guns And Roses I’m not sure where ur from, but I’m an American and I have private insurance. My insurance company covered 80% and I had to pay 20%. However I met my max deductible at $3,000 with this surgery. So I believe my parents paid about $3,000 after insurance. The price is going to depend on where your from, your insurance company, and what doctor you chose to go to.

I have an important question: How do you make sure that the cut is directly perpendicular to the knee turn. If it bone is cut at an lets say 80 degree angle, wouldnt it have one leg ending up forward or back. I mean when choosing the osteotomy location, how do you make measure that the bone is not cut at an angle, that may result the leg to be straight but either slightly forward or backwards. thank you.

Yes

Will I be able to do Muay Thai if I were to get the surgery? I have been dealing with knock knees for about 2 years and I finally doing this video about a surgery to correct it but I don’t know if I’ll be able to do Muay Thai again. Will I still be able to do Muay Thai if I were to get this surgery???

No dude you can’t, you’ll have to find a sport where you’re not constantly destroying your legs

Been looking for surgeries or treatments for my bow legs, it's a bit hard for me to walk fast or run cause by the second I walk or run my feet just rotate inwards and I unintentionally trip myself. Can't stand on two feet cause one of my feet will hurt but could technically stand if I only use one and put my other feet at the side of my other knee like I'm doing yoga. Ironic enough I have a good sense of balance but will trip myself by my own feet 😂

Find a surgeon that will do an osteotomy using an arthrex ibalance implant. Much better than metal plate with screws.

"We have had excellent success after distal femoral osteotomy to correct knee malalignment. The leg looks and feels better. Abnormal stress is removed from the knee and the knee is protected from developing arthritis in the future. Risks are rare, bone healing and mobility is quick, and crutches are often needed for 6 weeks after surgery." - Dr. S. Robert Rozbruch, orthopedic surgeon

Can Knock Knees be cured without surgery, like using braces? What doctor should I go to? thanks in advance.

[@HSpecialSurgery]

Hi Jake- The best non-surgical treatments are aimed at reducing the risk of arthritis development in the knee. This includes maintaining a low body weight, keeping fit while avoiding high impact activities, and bracing. These treatments will not change the knock knee deformity, but they will help in reducing the functional problems associated with the deformity. Consult with a physician about the best treatment for you. If HSS is the destination of choice, you can contact our Physician Referral Service at 888-720-1982. Best of luck!

[@jakerainicorn]

@@narisonxxii I recently had a less invasive procedure related to knock knees (Meniscectomy and Microfracture articular cartilage repair) that was $52,000 USD. I had insurance so it was no cost. This procedure is likely 2x as much I estimate and my surgeon is recommending I get this - he would have done this during my meniscectomy but the initial MRI did not pick up the cartilage issue.

I just had my two weeks ago, Oh my God the worst pain ever. The first two weeks is the worst, took like 40 oxycodone, 40 tylenols well I just took a lot of painkillers. Going on to my third week I'm still on immobilizer knee brace I'm feeling a little better less painful can't have weight bearing on my left leg for 3 more weeks. If you're trying to get this surgery, you better have good medical insurance. I'm located in Washington state the total surgery cost $77,000. One good thing is my insurance copay 80%.
