    Utilizing a 120-degree arthroscope in an anterior portal offers a safer, quicker, and more complete examination of knee posterior compartments during arthroscopy. This technique enhances diagnostic and operative capabilities, proving beneficial despite a learning curve.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Arthroscopy Techniques

    Background:

    • Posterior compartment examination in arthroscopy was recommended in 1974.
    • Surgical techniques using posterior portals have been described since then.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of a 120-degree arthroscope for examining posterior compartments.
    • To compare the 120-degree arthroscope in an anterior portal with standard posterior portal approaches.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a 120-degree arthroscope inserted through an anterior portal for knee arthroscopy.
    • Compared this technique with standard arthroscopic examination via posterior portals.

    Main Results:

    • The 120-degree arthroscope in an anterior portal allows easier, quicker, safer, and more complete examination.

  • This approach enables comprehensive arthroscopy without additional punctures.
  • It facilitates instrument use without obstruction by the arthroscope.

    • Conclusions:

    • Arthroscopy is incomplete without posterior compartment examination.
    • The 120-degree arthroscope technique, though challenging to learn, is recommended for routine use due to its significant benefits.
