A method of performing a proximal tibial osteotomy, portion of the metaphysis of the tibia is cut free from a remaining (lower) portion of the tibia with a cylindrical cut which has a curvature axis that is perpendicular to the sagittal plane. The thus-cut proximal portion is rotated relative to the lower portion of the tibia to establish a new desired angular relation therebetween, and the two portions are then fixed relative to one another in any suitable manner, as by pinning. |
