Knee osteotomy is a valuable treatment option for younger knee osteoarthritis patients. Improved surgical techniques, including double-level osteotomies to address femoral and tibial malalignment, have led to reappreciation of this joint-sparing alternative to knee arthroplasty. Yet, postoperative ability to resume sport and work at the desired level needs further improvement. We believe that timely surgery, optimized perioperative care, including evidence-based advice for resumption of activities, and prospective data collection are interesting next steps in this process.
