Apparative und technische Voraussetzungen für die arthroskopische Chirurgie am Kniegelenk (=Instrumental and technical prerequisites for arthroscopic surgery of the knee joint)

Abstract

The continuous improvement of intrumentation and equipment is the reason for the steady increase in arthroscopic operations. As the technical equipment is becoming increasingly complicated, attention must be paid to training and standardized procedures in order to ensure that the arthroscopic operative procedure is fast, safe, and without complications. Special operative techniques and instruments have been approved for clinical use, depending on the arthroscopic operation.
