The technique of a one-stage V-shaped osteotomy of the distal femur with impaction of the apex and osteoclasis of the opposite cortex is described. This osteotomy produces stability and rapid union and allows early mobilization. Of the 32 patients, on whom 60 osteotomies were performed, only 3 developed complications.
