Description

HTO (High Tibial Osteotomy) is a surgical procedure used to treat knee osteoarthritis by realigning the knee joint. Ilizarov is a type of external fixation device that is commonly used to treat complex fractures and bone deformities. Dr. Suhas Shah is a renowned orthopedic surgeon based in India, with over 25 years of experience in treating complex orthopedic conditions, including joint replacement, trauma, and sports injuries. He has extensive experience in using the Ilizarov method for treating complex bone and joint deformities. In the case of HTO treated with Ilizarov by Dr. Suhas Shah, it is likely that he used the Ilizarov device to help realign the tibia bone in the knee joint. This would involve making small incisions in the leg and attaching metal pins to the bone. These pins would be connected to an external frame that would allow for precise adjustment of the bone's position over time.
