German term

Knipsosteotomie

German to English Medical Medical (general)
This appears in a list of procedures:
Subcapitale Metatarsale-Keilosteotomie („Knipsosteotomie“)

I have found this description:
"Hierbei wird über einen dorsalen Zugang eine extrakapsuläre subcapitale Metatarsale-Keilresektion unter Belassen der plantaren Kortikalis vorgenommen, dies führt unter Belastung zur leichten Dorsalverschiebung des Köpfchens und dadurch zu einer Veränderung der plantaren Belastungszone.
Bisher habe ich keine Transferläsionen bei regelhafter Ausheilung der plantaren Läsionen gesehen. Eine Nachuntersuchung steht jedoch ebenfalls noch aus."

2 shortening osteotomy

@ TDVTrans Yes, Katja's answer sounds good.
TDVTrans Jan 3, 2017:
No worries Irene3. I think Katja's suggestion is the best one yet here.
Teangacha (X) Jan 3, 2017:
Really sorry. I didn't see discussion entry from TDVTrans before I added comment and posted second answer. If you were first TDVTrans, then you should post answer and get points.
TDVTrans Jan 3, 2017:
with Phil I think this refers to a wedge that is removed. "Wedge osteotomy" does get a decent number of hits.
philgoddard Jan 3, 2017:
Could it be something like "snip osteotomy", as in to take out a small wedge? The German only gets five hits, and sounds like someone's colloquial term, so it may be possible to leave it out of your translation.

wedge resection osteotomy

I think, "wedge osteotomy" is the proper translation for "Keilosteotomie" (as in "Subcapitale Metatarsale-Keilosteotomie"). In order to be able to deliver a translation of both, "Keilosteotomie" AND "Knipsosteotomie", I suggest using the German explanation you found as a base for the English translation of "Knipsosteotomie" and use "wedge" there:

"Subcapitale Metatarsale-Keilosteotomie ("Knipsosteotomie")
Hierbei wird ... eine ... Keilresektion ... vorgenommen"

-> Subcapital metatarsal osteotomy ("wedge resection osteotomy")

(The word "resection" transmits the idea of "knipsen" and both collocations get a decent number of hits in in Google in inverted commas.)
Example sentence:

https://books.google.de/books?isbn=1841841951: 240-1 dorsal tarsal wedge resection osteotomy

https://books.google.de/books?isbn=1853173789: a basal metatarsal wedge resection osteotomy [Swanson et al.... are indicated

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks to everyone for their comments. "Wedge osteotomy" also seemed OK, but this answer seems a little better because it distinguishes the term from "Keilosteotomie"."

After further research, I think this is wrong answer. I think the answer is 'wedge osteotomy/ cuneiform osteotomy.'

neutral philgoddard : That's Keilosteotomie.

But is 'Knipsosteotomie' not another way to say 'Keilosteotomie'?
