What Is the Cost of Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy in the UAE?
The cost of tibial tubercle osteotomy in the UAE typically ranges from $2,000 to $18,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.
Tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) moves the bony bump where the kneecap tendon attaches to the shin, to improve how the kneecap tracks. In the UAE, the price depends on:
- Additional MPFL reconstruction
- Screws
- Brace
- Physiotherapy
Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy: Who Needs It
Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust uses TTO for kneecap instability or a high-riding kneecap. A strip of bone about 8 cm long is moved and fixed with screws.
