Double-level knee osteotomy (DLO) is a challenging procedure that requires precision in preoperative planning and intraoperative execution to achieve the desired correction. It is indicated in cases of severe varus or valgus deformities where a single-level osteotomy would yield significantly tilted joint line obliquity (JLO). A single-centre, retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data for 26 patients, who underwent DLO by PSCGs for valgus malaligned knees. Post-operative alignment was evaluated and the delta for different lower limb alignment parameters were calculated; HKA, MPTA, and LDFA. At the two-year follow-up, changes in KOOS sub-scores, UCLA scores, lower limb discrepancy, and mean time to return to work and sport were recorded. All intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded.Abstract
