Abstract

Patients with pathologic genu recurvatum may present with complaints regarding anterior knee pain, instability, loss of range of motion, or locking episodes of the knee. Symptomatic genu recurvatum refractory to conservative measures may require surgical treatment. In this Technical Note, the authors describe a surgical technique involving an anterior opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy for a patient with symptomatic genu recurvatum from a knee hyperextension injury resulting in posterior soft-tissue laxity. The surgical technique aims to correct the limb sagittal alignment and provide stability to the knee joint, with the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes.
