Patel Procedure, Types and Recovery
When the knee and leg are not in a proper
alignment, extra stress is put on one side of the
knee. This extra pressure and stress on the Inner
or outer side of the knee overtime can cause wear
and tear of the smooth cartilage that protects
the bones resulting in stiffness and pain in the
knee. Knee Osteotomy is the knee surgical
procedure where the bone is cut to correct the
knees alignment in order to set right the
alignment for improved function and reduced pain
and stiffness.

improved, pain is reduced and knee joint is
conserved knee osteotomy in Mumbai is more in
line for people whose daily lives require them to
perform knee dominant activities. Knee Osteotomy
