Osteotomy Wedgie Spreader

The Modified Maquet Technique(MMT) is a variation on the TTA and TTO techniques of cruciate management in that it aims to bring the tibial plateau to sit at right angles to the straight patella ligament. By creating an incomplete tibial crest osteotomy the placement of a TTA advancement cage alone creates sufficient post operative stability for rapid healing to occur. The technique preserves soft tissue, requires a minimum of implants and saves time and morbidity. The Maquet technique is de- scribed in man as a technique to reduce patellofemoral pressure. The MMT technique described here is that presented by Sebastien Etchepareborde to ECVS in 2010 and published in VCOT 2011.3.
