Abstract:
Differentiating from the indications to an acute or early arthroscopic procedure in cases of injuries of athlete's knee joints the consequence of an early arthroscopy in this patient group is demonstrated in cases without haemarthrosis. If conservative treatment is unsuccessful an early arthroscopy is particularly indicated in these cases due to the shortening of the required time of treatment.
