Abstract:
The incidence of knee arthritis is increasing in our society and presents many dilemmas to the patient and doctor. Recent advances in arthroscopic treatment of arthritis have lead to the development of radiofrequency energy as an adjunctive tool for many arthroscopic procedures. Of great concern is the recent use of radiofrequency energy to treat articular cartilage lesions in the knee.
