Core Tip	Tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) is a useful technique to deal with a stiff knee in revision total knee arthroplasty. However, several reports have described potential osteotomy-related complications such as non-union, tibial tubercle migration and fragmentation as well as metalware related pain. The purpose of the current systematic review was to evaluate the literature and estimate the efficacy of TTO in revision total knee arthroplasty in terms of osteotomy union, knee range of motion, and complication rate. TTO was found to result in high union rate, significant improvement in knee motion and low osteotomy-related complication risk that rarely leads to secondary tibial tubercle procedures.
