Choosing Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital for High Tibial Osteotomy gives patients access to specialist-led knee preservation surgery, precision alignment techniques, and structured postoperative rehabilitation. Established in 1984, the COHSASA, ISQua accredited hospital is located in Johannesburg, South Africa and operates 254 beds with advanced orthopedic infrastructure.

High Tibial Osteotomy may be recommended when bow-legged alignment places excessive pressure on the inner portion of the knee and contributes to localized cartilage damage or osteoarthritis. The surgeon cuts and repositions the upper tibia to shift the load toward healthier parts of the joint. The corrected bone is secured with fixation hardware and allowed to heal. Recovery typically involves protected weight-bearing initially, followed by physiotherapy to restore knee movement, muscle strength, and functional mobility.
