A patient’s primary concern for any treatment is efficacy, followed by cost. The cost of an osteotomy is relatively inexpensive compared to a total knee replacement or a unilateral interval replacement. Osteotomies are usually done at a tertiary care hospital and cost about$2,000 for surgical treatment and about$1,000 for anesthesia. With a domestic plate, the surgery can be done for about$10,000 or less. If the patient is financially well off, an osteotomy with an imported plate will cost about$20,000 to$25,000. Total knee replacement surgery costs more than$50,000, but the overall cost of osteotomy surgery is reduced by half, which is one of the major advantages of osteotomy surgery in terms of economic cost. The specific cost of the surgery will depend on the level of the local hospital and the price department.
