Arthroscopy of symptomatic total knee replacements
Summary
Arthroscopic surgery effectively treats arthrofibrosis after total knee replacement, improving motion. It also aids early diagnosis of implant failure, enabling timely revision surgery.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedic Surgery
- Biomedical Engineering
Background:
- Symptomatic total knee replacements (TKR) can lead to complications like arthrofibrosis and implant failure.
- Arthroscopy offers a minimally invasive approach for diagnosis and treatment in TKR patients.
