A surgical kit for performing a tibial osteotomy is provided, comprising a pair of mounting pins (22) for attaching an osteotomy guide (1) in a predetermined relation to a tibia; wherein the osteotomy guide (1) comprises a transverse slot (8), defining a transverse cutting plane, adapted to receive and guide a transverse cutting blade (2) for making a transverse cut into the tibia, and a plurality of oblique slots (9) angularly offset from the transverse slot (8), each oblique slot (9) defining an oblique cutting plane, adapted to receive and guide an oblique cutting blade (3) for making a selected oblique cut into the tibia, wherein the intersection of each oblique cutting plane with the transverse cutting plane defines a wedge of bone (26) which may be removed from the tibia. Also included with the surgical kit are a compression clamp (4) adapted to apply compressive forces to a first portion of the tibia above the transverse cut and to a second portion of the tibia below the oblique cut to draw the first and second portions together, and a fixation plate (5) adapted to hold the portions of the tibia together during healing. A method for performing an upper tibial osteotomy is also provided which employs the osteotomy surgical kit.
