01/01/2007 - "Most studies showed improvement of the patient (less pain and improvement of function scores) after osteotomy surgery, but in the majority of the studies there was no significant difference with other operative treatment (other technique of HTO/ unicompartmental joint replacement). "

05/01/2013 - "osteotomy, ligament reconstruction and cartilage repair) should always be considered especially in younger patients; however, most patients show a significant improvement in function and relief of pain after arthroplasty for posttraumatic gonarthritis."
08/01/2009 - "These data indicate periacetabular osteotomy provides pain relief and improved hip function in most patients over short- to midterm followup. "
01/01/1979 - "A five-year follow-up showed that the patello-femoral joint was not influenced radiologically by the valgus osteotomy but patellar pain was improved in most of the cases. "

04/01/2015 - "The single distal osteotomy for juvenile hallux valgus seems to have the most consistent outcomes, with improved radiographic parameters and low risk of complication compared with the other surgical cohorts. "
12/01/1998 - "An osteotomy of the first proximal phalanx, metatarosphalageal soft tissue release, and exostectomy on five feet gave three excellent outcomes, one good outcome, and one fair outcome with a mean of 36% correction of the hallux valgus angle. "
01/01/2014 - "In summary, based on the low complication rate and the significant improvement in health related quality of life (EQ-5D) reported in this study, fixation of an Austin/Chevron osteotomy with a SonicPin for treatment of Hallux valgus can be considered to be safe and efficient over the short term. "
01/01/2002 - "Oblique basal closed osteotomy of Ist metatarsal within a comprehensive solution of the static defect of hallux valgus is recommended to the broad orthopaedic public as a surgery which in view of the authors can bring good results in children and adolescents. "
12/01/1977 - "In cases of hallux valgus tendon transfer combined with wedge osteotomy of metatarsus I yields good results. "

07/06/2011 - "Osteotomies are reported to be effective for the treatment of most cases of primary and traumatic moderate osteoarthritis of the ankle joint. "
03/01/1990 - "The best results were seen in knees with pre-operative grade I or grade II osteoarthritis and valgus deviation after osteotomy."
03/01/1993 - "Improvement in gait one year after surgery for knee osteoarthrosis: a comparison between high tibial osteotomy and prosthetic replacement in a prospective randomized study."
03/01/2015 - "The mean increase in grades was 0.31 (0 to 2) and 0.41 (0 to 2) in the maltracking and instability groups respectively (p = 0.2285) This self-centring tibial tubercle osteotomy provides good results at ten years' follow-up without inducing progressive osteoarthritis."
10/01/2014 - "High tibial osteotomy and unicondylar knee may produce good results in unilateral osteoarthritis of the knee. "

12/01/2015 - "For correcting severe kyphosis in patients with AS, the one-stage interrupted two-level transpedicular wedge osteotomy is a safe and effective technique which can significantly improve the thoracolumbar kyphosis angle."
01/01/2012 - "Good results can be achieved by applying proper posterior osteotomy and correction technique according to the severity of old tuberculous kyphosis."
08/15/2010 - "Based on the simulated osteotomy in computer before surgery, according to the characteristics of ankylosing spondylitic kyphosis, different posterior osteotomy and correction methods can achieve good results."
02/19/2013 - "As a safe and effective technique for correction of severe thoracolumbar kyphosis (Cobb > 100°) secondary to AS, single-stage skipping two-level PSO osteotomy can achieve larger correction and better sagittal alignment with a mean correction of 86°in terms of LL."
