I had a similar surgery 3 weeks ago. I had a maquet combined with a lateral release. They cut my shin bone and i had 2 screws put in. I still have to wear my brace for at least 3 more weeks, but i'm slowly putting more weight on my leg now. I hope all goes well with your surgery!

Hi,

I'm not sure what that is called, but it sounds similar to mine....they broke my tibial tubercle and realigned it. Good luck on the 21st!!!
