Abstract:

With the development of aging, degenerative knee osteoarthritis in the elderly is becoming more and more common. In recent years, with the development of the concept of " knee preservation surgery" , high tibial osteotomy for treating degenerative knee osteoarthritis in the elderly has been well-accepted by domestic and foreign experts and has achieved rapid development. High Tibial osteotomy is to transfer the weight-bearing point and weight-bearing loads to the relatively unaffected lateral compartment in varus knees, realign the lower limb line, so as to delay the need for knee replacement by slowing or stopping destruction of the medial joint compartment, and promote the repair of medial compartment cartilage, improve knee joint pain and other symptoms, then gradually restore joint activity and function. Early high tibial osteotomy was used in relatively young elderly patients, but with the development of aging and the research, more and more studies on treatment of elderly degenerative knee osteoarthritis with high tibial osteotomy. This article reviewed how to use high tibial osteotomy to treat of elderly degenerative knee osteoarthritis.

Key words: Tibia, Osteotomy, Aged, Knee osteoarthritis
