Tibial tubercle osteotomy significantly reduces femorotibial rotation in patients with patellar instability.
Postoperative FT rotation decreased by a mean of 2.0 degrees in patients receiving tibial tubercle osteotomy.
Retrospective cohort analysis involved 144 knees with varying patellar stabilizing procedures between 2010 and 2020.
Reduction in femorotibial rotation correlates with decreased tibial tubercle torsion, indicating effective stabilizing intervention.
