The surgery of tuberositas tibia transposition

About

The surgery of tuberositas tibia transposition is a surgical procedure used to correct knee problems such as patellar dislocation or subluxation. In this procedure, the tuberosity of the tibia (a small bony protrusion on the front of the tibia) is relocated or reconstructed to improve knee stability and function.

Candidate

Candidates for tuberosity tibia transposition surgery are usually individuals with recurrent patellar tendon dislocations or other issues causing knee instability.

Preparation

Preparation for treatment may involve a medical history review, physical examination, and diagnostic tests to determine the patient's suitability for surgery.

Treatment

The treatment itself is typically performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon accesses the front part of the tibia and relocates the tuberosity of the tibia to a new position to improve knee stability. Ligament reconstruction may sometimes be used to further strengthen the knee structure.

Result

Results of tuberosity tibia transposition surgery may vary depending on the severity of the knee problem and postoperative rehabilitation. Most patients notice improved knee stability and reduced pain after recovery. However, it is important to have realistic expectations and work with a physical therapist during the rehabilitation process to achieve optimal results.

Precautions

Precautionary measures after surgery include following the doctor's instructions for wound care, limiting knee loading during the recovery period, and regularly monitoring the progress of rehabilitation. It is necessary to avoid activities that could overload the knee and disrupt the healing process.

I recently suffered a serious shoulder injury. I decided for surgery in Zagreb at the Akromion clinic, based on the recommendation that it is the best in this part of Europe. First of all, I would like to thank Professor Čiček for his great effort and the entire staff from the reception staff, physiotherapists, nurses and technicians. They made it easier for me to get through the whole period while I was in the hospital.

Hello!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the Akromion clinic for their friendliness and professionalism, especially Dr. Medančić, who performed the shoulder surgery. I must mention that after the operation I feel more than great and that the recovery process is going faster than I thought.
