OVERVIEW

Surgical Skills Masters Course: Osteotomies Around the Knee presented by AOSSM and ISAKOS is organized by American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM).

Expiration Date: 10/25/2026

Description:
AOSSM and ISAKOS provide a global perspective on osteotomies. This masters-level course recording is designed for surgeons who have experience with the procedure and are looking for a greater understanding of lower limb alignment and how it may be altered to improve patient function. The course will demystify the technique of realignment osteotomy, providing attendees with a clear rationale and practical treatment algorithm to address a variety of knee conditions from cartilage and meniscal injury to ligament deficiency to osteoarthritis.

Upon completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to:
• Describe the indications and surgical techniques for realignment osteotomy of the knee, including proximal tibia, distal femur, and patellofemoral.
• Describe the indications and surgical techniques for biplanar, coronal, and sagittal plane osteotomies to treat ligament instability (e.g., ACL, PCL, MCL, posterolateral corner).
• Describe the pre-operative planning of deformity correction about the knee.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
