Abstract

The experience of the surgical treatment of 57 patients with contractures of the knee joint after arthroplasty is presented. One of the results of the work was the optimization of the surgical technique of arthroscopic intervention. The access points were not standard ports for introducing instruments, but modernized ones, designed considering the changed anatomy after knee replacement. The use of arthroscopic arthrolysis made it possible to increase the range of motion in the study group’s patients from 48.1±20° to 94.2±9.5° during the year.
