Abstract

Although accustomed to using the Maquet tibial tuberosity advancement, the authors had two similar and rare complications in which a fracture of the tibial shaft occurred at the end of the vertical osteotomy. Both incidents arose from a mechanical incision effect. This can be prevented by making a larger circular hole in the distal portion of the osteotomy.
